Strong arms grab Kron from both sides.  The guardsmen hold him firmly as
Panarchus approaches from the area of the bar.  "Sergeant Kron, you are
hereby charged with the murder of the man known as Creft the Fence," he
says intently.  "You will now come with us to Glorshanned Keep for 
imprisonment, trial, and punishment....."

Behind Panarchus, the crowd looks a little restless.  Tvarne demands more
details.  Thindrangistar and Scar make menacing noises.  Meshtak would too,
but he appears to have been consumed by a magic idol, and event that occurs
with disturbing frequency in this tavern.  Captain demands that Kron at 
least pay him back before he goes to jail.  It looks like things could
get nasty if something doesn't happen.

"HERE NOW, friends!" shouts Kron.  "I'm sure there's a reasonable explanation
for all this!  I'll just go with this man down to the Keep, we'll clear up a
few details, and I'll be back terribly soon.  I'm sure this is just a simple
mix-up."  To Panarchus: "Sir, you have made one heck of an error here." "I
doubt that very much.  Guardsmen, the chains."  Several men produce irons
and securely lock Kron up.

The crowd has died down to a dull mutter -- all is still not quite right, but
it seems that this is the way things will go.  Karl offers Kron an apologetic
glance and leaves the inn.  Most patrons return to their prior business.  "I
coulda taken 'em," says one man.  "Shaddap, Norm," says his friend from the
Guild of Couriers, and the two finish their beers.

Panarchus leads a still-bewildered Kron to the tender mercies of the Dungeons
of Glorshanned Keep..........

ADMIN:  Well, friends, I have to go away for a few days now -- I'm attending
a wedding (my own).  Hence, Kron will be in gaol until Monday.  At that time,
he'll be coming out, and he will NOT be happy.  Anybody wanna help Kron clear
his name?  I'll be starting a new thread upon my return, in which Kron hunts
down his framers and comes face to face with THINGS TOO TERRIBLE TO CONSIDER...
see you all soon!
