Editing Consider those who pass through these vast halls

|From Storylet title = Foyer of the Magistracy
|ID = 240493
|Description = This is not a sample of all who came from the Surface to the Neath. The indescribably wealthy would never be found here, nor the more cunning crook. But perhaps that is one example, not two.
|Game Instructions = This will give Incisive Observations and Inklings of Identity.
|Success title = Mid-tier criminals, mid-tier litigants
|Success description = Despite the Magistracy's claims of importance […], there is a definite sense of second-rate to the cases that pass through here. The lawyers are mostly the very young […] or the elderly […]

As for those who appear before the courts, well: [second passage]
|Success summary=Apparently, the Magistracy is where the elderly or rookie lawyers are sent to, so that they can handle cases of seemingly low import to the powers-that-be in London - or the cases are just too bizarre for the city-proper.

|Condition = Airs of the Evenlode |Condition alias = Airs |Effect = Second passage | Compact = yes
|Value 1 - 14 = that defendant is a member of minor nobility, here for a slander case. But she is very minor, and there are rumours that someone else has had to pay her legal fees.
|Value 16 - 29 = that litigant has gone so far as to declare he seeks always to have his cases handled by the Magistracy, as its distance from London means the defendant is less likely to turn up[…] He's been losing cases […] since the courts heard that this was the reason […]
|Value 30 - 41 = that defendant was dragged here by a team of crack Evenlode detectives. […] the court will have its work cut out prosecuting her – she was caught so far from London that it would be reasonable to argue that she was no longer under English jurisdiction. […]
|Value 47 - 58 = that defendant is barely out of her urchin-hood! You can prosecute a child, but what's the point? Sending a child to prison only entrenches the mischief in their nature.
|Value 62 - 71 = that couple have made a hobby of taking each other to court. They come from a London suburb where, apparently, there's nothing better to do. At some point, the judges will tire of it, but till then... they keep paying their […] fees, having their day.
|Value 75 - 86 = some are embroiled in cases too... ''strange'' for the London courts. Not that they or the Evenlode courts would admit it. Instead, these […] cases are allocated to the Evenlode on grounds of 'experience', without denoting what this experience might be.
|Value 88 - 98 = this gang of seven have committed crimes together, done time together, and – once more – are being tried together. The court never reveals why it grants them this leniency; rumours suggest it is at […] personal request of the Manager of the Royal Beth
