the queen sits back down again

i cannot believe an offworlder- one on trial, no less- would have a better sense of decorum in the court than two professional lawyers, she says.

moe, oliver, as punishment for your actions, the two of you are hereby suspended from practice until further notice.

the defendant may now make their case directly to me.

well, looks like you got two real options here.

>a) ignore the snuffling and use your decorum as proof that youre a good person who doesnt belong here and truly innocent, then get the heck off dog planet forever

>b) say that you'll accept punishment under two conditions: trial by adventure, and oliver joins you not only to redeem himself in the eyes of the court, but also for a totally sick team-up.

You can't let Oliver get suspended. Help your buddy.

Oliver had your back, now it is time to have his.

First part of A.
All of B.

your most esteemed and highest honor you came here today to ask to establish your innocence through trial by adventure

if the circumstances were explained to you correctly, if you adventure successfully youll be freed of all charges. if you adventure bad you'll take whatever punishment the court wants

and, also, you'd like to request oliver join you on the condition his suspension is lifted? moe can stay suspended by the way

the queen creates a massive and beautiful projection of outer space in detail youve never even seen with your eyes

"there are four planets with which dog planet has been looking to explore and, should the circumstances be right, establish a diplomatic connection" she says. "your adventure would be landing on one planet, investigating it, and reporting your findings back."

"the first planet", she says, "planet alfa, as research teams have taken to calling it, is less of a single planet and more of a cluster of moon-like entities orbiting a large impacted mass. attempts to communicate through traditional means have been hampered by the 'moons', which allow no outside signals to pass through".

"Research name Planet Brava is akin to dog planet in that they are both ringed entities. however, Brava's massive metal rings fluctuate in position in ways previously unknown, and any messages sent have yet to receive a response, should even they make the planet surface."

"Between the strange rotations and the metal structure, the planet's rings almost appear to be artificially made," she muses.

"Planet Delten is a complete enigma shrouded in a thick electromagnetic fog. The only reason we know there's a planet at all is because of a single hole, which reveals a strangely verdant planet. We've calculated the hole to next be reachable from our own surface in approximately 72 hours. It goes without saying it is a fool's errand to attempt to send messages through its thick fog."

"Now," she says, "Which planet will you choose for your trial?"

>Planet Alfa
>Planet Brava
>Planet Charlas
>Planet Delten

I say Yea to Charles, Nay to Delten. Planets with life on them are neat. And electromagnetic fog would prevent you from leaving in any sort of timely manner.

mysterious foggy vegetation-heavy planet with no outside contact? I think that's some grade-A adventure material right there.

Charlas.

WHAT DO THEY MEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN

moons are the BEST, go for Alfa!!!

"these collars", the queen says, pointing at a collar shes floating above her head, "enable contact in the same way as antennae, but with a much, much greater range.

"not only that, but they'll also be used as location trackers to make sure you carry out your trial."
