Steerpike looked up, suddenly interested, rubbing a finger along the curve of his lower eyelid.

*Wild shrugged.*
"Orduag used the same lame excuse everytime he wanted to put someone away: Treason. And they didn't actually have to be guilty about it either. He put them there just because he could and because he wanted to."

"Take them out," said Steerpike, "and have them replaced by those responsible."

"In that case, we should look into the files. Can't have us jailing innocents-"
*She stopped herself*
"Of course, Steerpike, I suppose I should leave these things to you..."

*Wildfeather looked down for a moment, thoughtfully.*
"There's just one problem...."
*She finally said.*
"The only responsible here is Orduag himself. He could spend hours locking in and torturing his victims."

"And did anyone object?" Steerpike said loudly. "Or did these crones stand there and laugh?"

*Wild looked up at him with sadness in her beautiful dark eyes.*
"Those who objected are all dead now, mylord." *She replied.*
"You see, he killed all those who objected, or those who helped those who objected. Nobody can laugh at that...."

"I want all images of him destroyed." Steerpike said finally. "If I hear one word of that man's existance spoken here..."

*Wild smiled.*
"I will see to that all images of him will be burned. And the statues. What will happen to those who speak of him?"

"I imagine that will be dependent on context," Steerpike retorted, settling back and steepling his fingers.

*Wildfeather looked thoughtful. She was pondering if Orduag had had supporters. If he had, they were gone now.*
"I doubt you will find anyone who speaks well about him."

"I imagine not," he said vaguely.
