Lumopolis residents struggle and work hard for their city, while the nobles sit on their thrones, indulging in excess.

A place without order that's only suitable for animals. But at least their magazine's not half-bad!

White Night up high! Long live Lumopolis, blessed be the nobles, for that shall lead us to prosperity! Bah.

Creatures that can't understand the law are so pitiful. Doomed to be defendants and never the prosecution.

Should I meet my end, at least I can trust Chief Judge Irridon. She's... different.

I see my past self whenever I look at Keating... Think I should team up with them? With me as the team leader, we could bring justice to the whole world!

The sound of a gavel pounding is the sound of justice itself... And it sounds especially wonderful when you bring it down on someone's head!

I only have one thing to say to people who understand the law, but are content to just talk about it instead of upholding it: "Please duly end your life."

Soroz is in violation of Article 1 of the Lumopolis Clear Skies Act, which I just wrote myself. Sorry, but I'll have to confiscate your Colossus.

Order, order! I will be holding a trial here shortly!

You need me to preside over a trial here? Not a chance! Oh... you don't need anything right now? Great! Now I can think up some new laws for the Colossus...

Court is adjourned.

Justice is served.

Court is in session!

Order!

Prepare for trial.

I will serve as your witness.

How are you bound to this Colossus? By inheritance or through a legally-binding contract? Are the Fireflies individually protected as a result? Ugh, so many questions... Maybe I should just fine you and call it a day?

Time for a new law!

Alchemy Stars.

A new year brings me new opportunities to serve justice for you.

There was a case in which the plaintiff and his family were sentenced to exile, all because he burped in front of the judge while presenting his case. He died in exile, which opened an inquiry on the judge. I wonder how many people have died because of a single burp?

The number of cells available influences the severity of a judge's verdicts. While it does create problems for the execution of justice, at least one of the parties walks away satisfied.

Do Caelestites use their psychic abilities when sentencing others? Or do they use them to defend themselves while on trial? Although, if everything takes place inside one's mind, there'd be no need for words.

If your Fireflies were found to be sentient beings, wouldn't that make you guilty of enslaving them? You would be in violation of the law! To the courts, now!

Unfamiliar with the law? That's alright, I can recite anything you need to know. But whether or not it'll be useful is entirely up to you.

What's that? You think some of our laws are entirely impractical? Why, that's perfectly normal, considering the guys in Lumopolis are only concerned with writing the laws, not enforcing them.

If you ever need to hold a trial aboard the Colossus, I can fill just about every role you need: judge, prosecutor, and attorney! I can make sure you always win. Oh, but I'll leave the prosecuting to you, of course.

Have you noticed that the nicer the title, the more wrong it sounds? For instance, a "generous nobleman," a "loyal knight"... or "Lumopolis, the heart of civilization."

After seeing all of its wicked secrets hidden in the shadows, I sometimes wish that Lumopolis would just fall from its ivory tower and crash into the world below.

If we want to decide on laws aboard the Colossus, we need to get something straight first. Is it considered a living being or a territory? That's pretty important, you know!

The case I'm most proud of was when I helped a quarreling couple save their marriage from a hasty divorce. But for wasting my time, I made both parties pay a hefty fine anyway.

It's impossible for a law to account for every possible situation, which is why we rely on precedents or our own ideas to pass judgment at times. This is part of how Lumopolis keeps up with the times.

A new year brings me new opportunities to serve justice for you.

Rain or shine, it's always a good day for a trial! As a matter of fact, I just thought up—I mean, remembered—a new article of law and would like to test it out.

It's a little early for a trial, don't you think? If you have your materials ready, you can leave. I'm taking a break today.

Righteous trials and righteous conclusions are great and all... But nothing is more righteous than a hot cup of black coffee in the evening!

I'm beat. I even started pondering how to create justice and equality through laws... It looks like I need to get some rest.

A new year brings me new opportunities to serve justice for you.

Preserving justice and the law comes with a price, and to pay that price... it's always best to start with other people! That's why I'm here—to make sure you're not one of them!

You want to bribe me... with this?

Bribes are illegal, remember that next time!

Ah... I've got you covered.

You've got this judge's support!

Be seated!

All rise!

Objection!

I memorized an entire book of statutes when I was only 5 years old. That's how I was able to start school so early.

Back then, they said I was either a child prodigy, or the scariest future attorney they had ever seen.

I used to be someone who knew right from wrong, but after that day... I chose to close my eyes and cover my ears. Out of sight, out of mind.

I shall preside as judge.
