The Sinless One
"The Court was silent as the judge considered the evidence. High elf courts are notoriously complex and this case had been a phenomenon among the lower casts. The accused , Sir Lloweth Forstol, was on trial for several murders and violations of local women. His defense was astounding and although most of the high elves believed him guilty, some started whispering of his walking free due to bribes and familial prestige. Then the Judge banged his gavel and uttered the words all feared real. The monster would walk free. As the crowd broke out in fervor, a presence filled the room. We were compelled to silence.i recognized her at once. Her white mask and black armor that seeped her own blood. The Blind Justice Astaeris had appeared. Before any could speak two iron maidens shot from the ground. Both sir Forstol and the Judge himself were guilty in the eyes of the sinless one." - Account of the trail of Lloweth Forstol according to Court Guard, Sir Harrowar Quellas.
