Yet the Angel Must Hang
The trial of Dominic Morris is at hand. Accused of orchestrating a mutiny of such savagery that it left the Maiden's Wound undermanned and forced it to run aground on the shores of Lower La Noscea, his fate has captured the attention of much of the peoples of Limsa Lominsa, especially after delays in the proceedings caused the call for justice to turn violent. Unwilling to settle for anything less than a full court martial in order to ensure a complete restoration of order, the Admiralty has arranged for Commodore Haelstyrmm of the 9th Squadron to preside over a five-man board of Maelstrom captains to determine Morris' guilt.
Morris has been allowed to retain an advocate for his defense and associated advisers, but there is little expectation that he will be acquitted of the crimes. The stage is set for the Admiralty to show that it has authority in Limsa by rule of law, not merely force of arms and the support of a gang of cutthroats.
Meanwhile, public interest has ensured there will be a large crowd near the Mizzenmast during the trial. Opinions between those who think the sooner Morris meets the noose, the better, and those who suspect his actions had some larger purpose are running high and hot, and the Yellowjackets and Maelstrom alike are seeking adventurers for extra security.
Note:Â This is a two-part, two-day event, taking place over several days of game time. It will be divided into two parts: Those who are participating in the trial itself, and those who will be keeping the crowd secure outside the Mizzenmast.
These events will be interlinked. It is possible for events inside the trial, as they are reported, to upset the crowd. Likewise, if violence from outside manages to reach those participating in the trial, it may color the proceedings.
Participants in the Crowd events can sign up for both or one day as their schedule permits.

I can sign up for both. Maybe Hisa shows up to sneer at Limsans, or Chakha comes looking for Lalafell and/or see what's happening.
