---From from local news updates---
After a three day period of mourning, prayer and fast Holder Mensha Khael Crow was laid to rest with full rites. He was remembered by his surviving wife, heir and two sons as a loving and dedicated husband and a father. Large collection of gathered friends were retired officers -and crew- from his time in service to the Imperial Navy. Souls of the holding have apparently freely practiced rites of mortification for the duration of mourning, to show their grief for a loved holder. Noticably few members from House Sarum proper were seen as guests, while of the local representatives of Imperial Armaments most had come to pay their respects.
Even during his burial rites Lord Crow proved to be a man of many sides, as his controversial book 'Suggested protocols for irregular fleet formations' was approved to be released nearly same time with news that Gallantean officials had shelved most investigations into 'Nobel Patrician' group.'Nobel Patrician' group was an allaged terrorist organization fifteen years since, with suggested influence in several attacks against Federal Government. House Crow was suspected for funding the group, however no evidence for the claims has ever been brought up in court.
Lord Crow was set to rest in the family mausoleum when sunlight touched the entry Archway.
"In death as in life, my duty will be done."

For those with Republic Justice Department standings and the interest to hunt some more information on Lord Crow.
[spoiler] Newly transcribed evidence on House Crow operations under leadership of Holder Mensha Khael Crow. Files anonymized to protect the escapee code named Blue Grandfather.
"Lord of Murder, that is actually a misunderstanding of the title. He picked it up in the third purge of Isendale. It was in support of one of the allies of their minor house. He could have used the space and air superiority as is common for most operations against rebels.
That monster chose to enter a ground operation. And allowed the rebels to hunt, to think they were hunting him. We were running after his troops. Over bodies and past stakes.
Then we found out that not all those bodies were dead. It was a chaos with no way to know if that brother beside you was looking to kill you or not. When his armored troops entered the battle. We were all ready fighting each other.
It was no fight or war. Just slaughter. Thats where that mishearing of a title is from.
Real one? His people call him "Lord of
the Murder". Don't know where it comes from."
End.
