The ranks are: 1-Unblooded, 2-Ice-Veins, 3-Blue-Blood, 4-Bone-Breaker, 5-Snow-Hammer, 6-Winter-Axe, 7-Bear-Heart, 8-Stormblade. A Captain would probably be a Snow-Hammer. Other than that approved.)

When the Jarl sat down he motioned for his steward to speak. "The trial of Maven Black-Briar is in session." Anuriel said. "Maven is charged with conspiracy and murder, she is thought to have contacted the Dark Brotherhood and hired them to assassinate the late Jarl Laila Law-Giver. Captain Francois of the Rift Guard is acting persecutor. You may begin captain."

"Thank you Anuriel. Jarl Harrald, the guard have been able to find more than enough evidence to indicate that Maven did in fact contact the Dark Brotherhood assassin that killed your mother. It was proven in your own trial that you were innocent of the crime and with my testimony we were able to confirm that the Brotherhood were the ones responsible. The assassin did his best to frame you, on orders of Maven." Francois said.

"That is pure speculation." Maven said.

"I was attacked by the assassin in the Market the night that Laila was murdered and knocked out. When I awoke I was being thrown into the lake by Maven's goon Maul." the imperial said.

"I can confirm that my liege." Lieli said. "I was the one that saved him from drowning."

"Funny, the only other person that can back that claim is dead. Killed by one of the guards, Investigator Arnor." Maven said. "How do you know, my Jarl, that this is even true. If the only witness is Lieutenant Lieli, who is in fact in a romantic relationship with the captain." Maven pointed out.

"She has a point." Anuriel said. I knew that little detail would come in handy. Anuriel had heard from Unmid about Francois and Lieli, some of the guards had told him.

How did she know that...are there still some corrupt guards here? Francois thought. "That is irrelevant." he said.

Saerlund had waited till Maven was gone, he knew that if she found out that he heard her and Anuriel's conversations then she would have him killed. "Guard! Guard!" he yelled, to draw the Jail guard over. (I believe that the Stormcloak ranks are regular - Unblooded, Ice-Veins, Bone-Breaker, Snow-Hammer, and Stormblade, I think, are nicknames.)
