Impeachment is not a new concept to them. As the grand elder said, there are several attempts at impeachment before and they barely succeeded and no matter what the result is, the aftermath would be ugly.
The two participants will no longer be able to see eye to eye and there is a chance that one of them would end up dead a few days after the impeachment result was given. Sometimes, the murder could be linked to the other party, but most of the time, that doesn't happen.
The grand elders discussed something for a moment and one of them stood up and said.
"We would like to take some time to go through the evidence brought by the lord. If the evidence is convincing enough, we would be proceeding with the impeachment trial and if it is not, Lord Markan would lose his position as a Lord and will be demoted to an ordinary informant for the rest of his life without any chance of promotion."
