A rather unsettling interpretation of a cherubic Hobgoblin appears to Lucas Chevalier, holding an enclosed document by the Autumn Witness, Worm with a request for privacy on the Fairest's behalf. It was polite, at least, as it explained that he was being served to participate in mediation in regards to the broken Oath with Riley Sorsa.
Some context was provided alongside the document, where the Pledgesmith put forward that the violated clause for secrecy has been met with Lucas's demand that Riley was now required to stop acting vengeful to make amends. Worm was putting forward that these demands do not coalesce on proper legal terms, and offers that Riley would need to respect the demands of the initial terms: Lucas' need to remain politically protected. In representation of his client, Worm was asserting that Riley would have to symbolically balance the scales by 'taking the fall', and protect Lucas from a scandal by taking on the blame in order to protect the symbol of his privacy with a secret of their own.

Lucas was also given the advice that if he wished for his own legal representation, the summon was happy to provide a list of available Pledgesmiths within the Freehold.
