Inessa had broken the rules, thus she had recieved a Yellow Card.
"IF I AM CALLED UPON TO PRESIDE OVER THE ISSUE BETWEEN THE CITY AND THE REFUGEES, I WILL," Jredthys continued, folding his arms over his armored chest. "AT THAT POINT I WILL EVALUATE THE SITUATION AND PRESENT A VERDICT. IT IS NOT MY PLACE TO DO SO BEFORE THEN."
