Septon Roswyn's office was once occupied by the High Septon, and like The Starry Sept itself, The Hightowers had not spared any expense, it is as spacious as the royal solar, with glass paintings, the floor is marble, black but for the white shape of the seven pointed star. Septon Roswyn cares not to stand as he enters, but instead offers a greeting and bids his guest take a seat in front of his desk, a large massive wooden thing, Alliser recognizes many a well known scene from The Seven Pointed Star on the artful carvings along it's sides. The office itself is designed as a demonstration of the Power of the Faith, and it is filled with more of the same. Septon Roswyn knows how use it's effects, as the High Septon's appointed representative to the Reach, his power and influence rivals that of many great lords, and he makes no attempt to conceal this. His septon's robes are white velvet, but with inlaid patterns of different fabrics and many white pearls does not suggest any sort of humility on his part. Not fat, lazy and decadent as the majority of The Most Devout Alliser remembered at the king's court, he has a flat belly, though not the shoulders of a warrior. They had not often met at the Red Keep when Roswyn was stationed there, his hair used to be black then, if Alliser's memory serves, now there is barely enough left of it to show that this was once so.

[phase 1] AMDM status rep: 7d6k5 23[phase 1] AMDM free action deception act: 6d6k4+3+2 22[phase 1] AMDM persuasion convince: 6d6k4+3 17ID 16 + free action DOS Composure 9/9 Frustration 0/3 Alliser had met this troublesome priest St the tournament of blackness those weeks ago. Then his actions proved the first meeting was but the surface of Abelar's hate, and Alliser tried convincing this septon that the faith have a duty to our immortal souls, and that power on this planet should be the province of Lord's and King's.

Septon Roswyn is well accustomed to receiving lords, and well accustomed to assuring them that with the aid of the Father above, the tribunal would without a doubt offer true justice.
Alliser gets 1 DoS, so +1 ID Initiative: 8d6k5+1 26Free Deception: 8d6k5+1 26 2 DoS ID: 15 DR: 4 Composure: 12 Objective: Convince Alliser that Ser Abelar Hightower should be named regent for his nephew. Convince: 6d6k4+1 19 1 DoS, no influence dealt.

[phase 1] AMDM rnd 2 awareness empathy: 6d6k4 21While true that the gods would see to it that Justice was delivered, the gods did not act without the use of their tools correct? Alliser was testing the Septons beliefs with his question.

ID: 15 DR: 4 Composure: 12 Objective: Convince Alliser that Ser Abelar Hightower should be named regent for his nephew. R2 Read Target: 6d6k4+1 17R3 Read Target: 6d6k4+1 17(He won initiative) Pffft, this is going to take forever. Yield suggestion: If Alliser pledges to support Ser Abelar's claim on the regency, Roswyn will pledge to seek to influence proceedings such that Septon Abelar's service to The Faith is in the preservation and copying of holy texts and tomes, but he is not about to vote against Abelar just to vote against Abelar, if the wind is blowing the other way, Roswyn will be doing the Weather vane act to appear to be in agreement with the rest.

Septon Roswyn is pleased that Lord Alliser is willing to help do the work of The Gods, The Seven Pointed Star does decree that men are needed to for good works on earth, and will be rewarded for it in the Heavens should their efforts demonstrate their piety and zeal.
