Description summary:
The description varies depending on the Format of Trial.

Format	Description
0 - Common Law	The law was designed to handle strange contradictions […] two things can share a name and still be distinct. Two Londoners who share the same appellation cannot be held liable for the same debt. That, though, seems to give the devils ideas.
20 - Cedar Trial	When mere contracts are insufficient, the old ways are best. Both parties understand this […] until the verdict is felt. The Tomb-Colonist's wrappings acquire an odour of cedar wood which will never fade. The devils simply slink away in sullen silence.
30 - Marigold Methods	The devils are deeply embarrassed to have lost on these terms. They immediately lodge an appeal – which the judge denies when the hem of his robe starts smoking.
