 Lord's son, made a Mistake, had to flee Scotland
 
+Backplot:
+
+Grew up son of a minor Scottish lord,
+in [TBD].
+
+After apprenticeship, it was arranged somehow
+(by corrupt means, probably)
+that Kennocht should remain there as Quaesitor,
+contrary to usual House Guernicus rules intended against nepotism.
+
+Kennocht was curious and didn't take hints for
+when to stay out of things.
+He came to suspect a corrupt relationship
+between his parens and his father,
+with his parens assisting his father
+in a dispute with another local lord.
+
+Foolishly, Kennocht confronted his parens,
+sure that if he explained why this was against the Oath,
+his parens would see the error of his ways.
+
+That's not what happened.
+Kennocht fled before his parens could declare Wizard War.
+
+From temporary lodgings at [TBD],
+Kennocht wrote to the Magvillus Council.
+
+Kennocht is no warrior,
+and his hamfisted approach didn't meet favour.
+House Guernicus will send someone else to deal with the Scots,
+although at some point a senior Quaesitor
+may visit Kennocht at [The Pointy Bits] to get
+an in person briefing and witness statement.
