Ah, do the Orlanthi accept (sorely) this fact? Or do they have secret courts?

In New Pavis.

Lunars and Pavisite are not aware of the Destori being involved. He flew with the head of Garreth (for eventual divinations). Lunars blamed the Thanatar cult of the Rubble for the act.

He is part of the same band (Cold Wind). He is an ally of the Destori's Patron (in game Terms). The Patron is Krogar Wolfhelm, but Krogar was not present at the duel.
Degan Stormson, another member of the secret Cold Wind band, was present and can testify pro the Destori hero.
The leader of the Band (Argrath Maniskisson) is currently unavailable...

I am not so sure.

Because he doesn't killed an outlaw: he didn't give to Garreth the opportunity to be judged.

Thanks, that was not clear to me.
