![]() ![]() 1 and combine this with the previously unexplored primary material utilised here. Although there is currently limited work that focuses upon Scottish execution practices, the discussion will draw upon the wider historiography discussed in Chap. The chapter will then move on to examine the changes made to execution practices. Despite these changes, the public execution continued to hold a pervasive attraction and drew large crowds throughout the period under investigation here. ![]() ![]() Notably there was a decline in the need for a lengthy procession to the place of execution which had historically been a focal part of the proceedings. In addition, other traditional elements of the scaffold ritual were subject to adaptation. At around the same time, and continuing into the early nineteenth century, Scotland’s circuit cities and towns began to follow suit, relocating their common place of execution from urban peripheries to locations closer to their places of confinement. However, in 1785 they were moved closer to the Tolbooth itself. In Edinburgh, between 16, executions were conducted at the Grassmarket following a procession from the Tolbooth through the Old Town. Following this exploration of the scene at the gallows, the chapter will examine the changes made to the logistics of the public execution including those related to its location. The multitude of behaviours and responses that the execution spectacle could generate will also be considered. The opening section will begin by questioning the role of the key actors of the event, namely the condemned criminals and the concourse of spectators gathered to witness them suffer their lamentable fate. The current chapter will provide some insight into the spectacle of the scaffold in Scotland between the mid-eighteenth and early nineteenth century by drawing upon the extensive source materials gathered, including newspapers and execution broadsides, which offer rich qualitative details of the scene at the public execution. It will also examine the implementation of the post-mortem punishments of dissection and hanging in chains, and situate their usage within the broader bodily punishment narrative. Part II will now turn to present a qualitative exploration of public executions in Scotland and an investigation into the changing nature of capital punishment and execution practices across the period. It provided an exploration of the contextual and judicial drivers that impacted upon its use and quantitative analyses of focal periods to enhance our knowledge of Scotland’s capital punishment history between 17. Will update after doing those.The focus of Part I of this volume was to gain an understanding of the implementation of the death sentence in Scotland. Only left to try are Glowing Arcane Trunks. I covered every square inch and opened all the Arcane Chests, but no Strange Silver Knife. Then I flew around Nazjatar in concentric circles using Dwarf Treasure Finding which shows Arcane Chests on the minimap. Previously there were lots of yellow dots nearby marking scrying locations.ģ.b. Oddly, after killing Sandcastle, the scrying chest locations disappeared from my minimap, even though I had ~3m left on my scrying stone. None of the scrying chests I opened had Strange Silver Knife. First I used 3 Scrying Stones for about 12m until Sandcastle spawned. However, after completing the Scrying Stones quest line, I did a systematic search for more chests:ģ.a. I don't recall what order I did those on my other alts, but a comment on the Scrying Stones page implies you have to do Scrying Stones first to unlock this item drop.ģ. I opened that chest before finishing the Scrying Stones quest on my rogue. On all my other toons the item was always in the Arcane Chest on the island just east of Mezzamere or NW of Newhome, the one surrounded by all the Glimmershell crabs of varying sizes and water elementals. After using up all his Scrying Stones and opening every Arcane Chest in Nazjatar, no knife. Each of them except my Dark Iron Dwarf Rogue quickly found this item in the chest on the island just East of Mezzamere and NW of Newhome, and did the resulting "Curios" quest line to unlock the Nazjatar puzzle world quests.īut my Dwarf Rogue was not so lucky. Comment by KurtosisI have a problem with this quest, one of my alts is not getting this item to drop. ![]()
