Somehow, I think I have the two sides of this conflict mixed up... -_-
Hireshmont accused Shino of treason yesterday based on a forged letter. A trial was going to ensue in 24 hours when Erasmus little spy club got unveiled. So, people started to protest Erasmus. Erasmus got pissed and said Hireshmont didn't want a fair trial(I think he was fishing for Shino's help a little bit, but Shino was like FYMF). Now, Erasmus is on a rampage and has arrested Hireshmont as well as banned Shino, Alura, and Tooru, and promised to ban any others that would protest against him. THEN Royal Vigilans protested against him and has challenged him to a duel to the death.
EDIT: And Erasmus says he will accept on the condition there are no more protests.
