Quietly, the jailor took a step back. "Father! What do you mean!? I just wanted to have strong offspring. That can't be wrong! Higg is just a weakling. If he could have defended himself, it wouldn't have gotten that far. He always gets erect whenever we spar. What's wrong with using him!?" "Gods!" I heard the jailor whisper to himself. "I taught you all about consent. You know that it is wrong to use force when you don't have consent. You did this. Now, you need to be punished for it." I said firmly. This was hurting me too. Leonardo looked shocked. "I... I... I was just doing... what was right for our family." he said, looking down with balled fists. I just shook my head. I had indeed failed him. He did not understand what was wrong here. "No. If you asked him to fuck you and he accepted, we would not be here right now. You raped him. Higg is a victim and he is my squire. Just because he was the one in your ass, it does not mean that it was not you sexually abusing him without his consent. I thought you understood that. Why don't you get that!?" I yelled at him. Leonardo flinched from me.
It was a whirlwind after that. The jailor shackled him and led him to a cell. As a knight from a noble family, he had one of the cleaner cells. The jailor had to record all the charges brought by the arresting officer. He recorded this as a case of assault and sodomy. Anthony sought me out the next day. "Did he do it!?" he asked. I just nodded my head. He sucked his teeth. Anthony never liked my sons. I was pleased he was not gloating. "Are you going to defend him at trial before court? Who saw it?" he asked. "It depends. What is the punishment of such a crime?" I wanted to know. Anthony sighed and said "From how the jailor reported it to us, the boy was pummeling your squire to sit on his cock and do demonic rituals to get pregnant. That is going to warrant being burned at the stake." I winced. "Okay! It wasn't that dramatic, but the facts are true. I was the one that turned him in. Obviously, I don't want my son to actually die. I kind of just wanted him whipped and jailed for a bit. Justice needed to be done, but this is extreme. Don't you think so?" Anthony looked at me blankly. "Nope."
Reeling, I needed to sit down. "Death is justice. If the facts you yourself witnessed are indeed true, he should burn. Boys forcing sodomy on others will not be tolerated here. Boys getting pregnant and giving birth is heretical. It doesn't matter that he follows that demonic druid religion. That will just make it easier to get him on the stake. I told you that this would not end well for you." he said. This was not looking good for Leonardo's safety. "Can't we just banish him from the county instead?" I asked him half-heartedly. I knew the answer already. That was when Lenard came into the sitting room. He had a ton of letters. We watched as he looked through the names of the senders. When one caught his eye, he let the others fall to the floor. He read the selected letter. There was a hard to read expression on his face. "What happened? Your brother might burn at the stake. Are you not concerned about him at all?" Anthony asked my son. Lenard looked at us. "Father told us that bullying people was wrong. He also told us consent is very important. He even said not to use our pistils. Why care?"
