Case file: The Precept Arcanum
-
Paying enemies of the crown not to murder you and others is not treason and, if it were, you'd need to arrest everyone in the city.
Polly slanders the crown, and Mr Swift should also be brought in about slandering Polly.

The first entry in our lawbook states:
'-Treason- The Act of Aiding the Enemies of Arabel'Giving wanted criminals gold is treason.

If you are going to interpret staying alive in the countryside as criminal, perhaps those being interrogated by Sabriel's baby brother should be arrested for treason for providing tittle-tattle and gossip to a known fugitive?

I am going to interpret having a 10,000 gold bounty for a list of offenses as criminal. Where they choose to live is their own business.

Enemies of Arabel means things like foreign armies, dragons, things like that.
Not some half orcs or whoever. Blackgrains's probably right too, if it's a choice between being murdered and giving them your gold, I'd say the ones threatening people with death or beatings are the criminals, not the one who isn't strong enough to fight them, and so, get's robbed.
Just some advice, do whatever you want.
-Just some Low-born.

Begin bringing these Precept scum to heel. Bring up a list of charges against them to be submitted to Precept leadership. Do this lawfully, gentlemen. Then we make things more painful should they refuse to cooperate.

Polly has been abducted by the Precept. It seems she actually had information.
I propose pursuing the crimes committed of Bloodhound Mikal which I felt, at the time, were honest mistakes. He was fined for his part in Eveningstar debacle where a citizen was murdered in custody, he has not paid.
He shall be brought in for Hooliganism and Disobeying the Crown Guard. It is clear from my speaking with Dalacrioux that he has instructed Mikal to break these laws, I shall obtain a confession to that effect and issue a warrant of arrest for Dalacrioux.

Likely the Precept took care of this Polly internally. No need to pursue her any longer.
As for Mikal, do as you will.

Mikal is a grunt, unfortunately. I levied the maximum possible fine, and told him to discuss it with the Precept.

I stopped a tiefling and asked for her papers, she turned out to be a Scion Lennireth. A Bloodhound approached and enquired about the whereabouts of my mother. I informed him she was safe and that we had spoken lately. He proceeded to ignore my demands. I snuck in to see if they were being instructed by Dalacrioux to ignore the law. The Bloodhound assaulted me when he indicated there was a trespasser.
I proposed to Abelard we return to apprehend the Bloodhound, he wished to wait.
