The Lord Mastrell was willing to keep the debt secret so long as the Lord Merchant kept paying the tribute. The [[Lady Judge]]'s predecessor knew about the debt and ruled that the Lord Merchant must pay the debt in full when the Lord Mastrell asks for it. Instead of demanding that Vey pay the debt, [[Kenton]] forgave the debt, earning Vey's respect and causing him to vote for the Diem. |
