Gareth and Cassima will be putting their big brains together and placing down coins to make a profit. The two have decided to together with their intellectual and economic prowess try to play the market and turn a profit. Gareth will be fronting the investment for this venture and will be seeking out businesses and trading companies to buy and sell off of to make good on their investment money.

Cassima will take Gareth's initial investment and seek to turn a profit off the origional by investing the money wisely. Additionally she has added 50k of her own silver seeking a greater return. All returns will go to Gareth for him to split as necessary or desired.

Caith doesn't bring money to the deal -- she brings her considerable charm. She goes to butter up merchants and encourage them that they are in safe hands with Gareth and Cassima. Long soothing talks, pats on the shoulder, understanding eyes. This is a risk, but don't worry -- these people know what they're doing.

This business of investments is difficult, but they manage to make it work. With shrewd investments on the part of Gareth and Cassima, not to mention some smoothing the way and buttering up merchants by Caith, they find their investment profiting - as 150,000 silver turns to 200,000 silver. Profit indeed.

Princess Marian Redrain organizes the Redrain ward guard to make sure they keep an eye out for shards and chunks of light absorbent black glass are poisonous waste left behind by one of the Gyre's weapons. Whatever tainted material is found is then turned over to the Inquisition. Provided those men step forward, then no punishment is given. For those that have to have the shards removed with force. They are sent to the Physicians Guild and the Spirit Walkers to ensure no ill effects, and once they're well and clear of taint, they are reprimanded and required to give service by aiding the reconstruction of families that lost loved ones during the battle.

Ianna oversees the collection, observing the effects on the workers and making sure they are healthy and doing all they can to be safe.

With Prince Gareth seeing to the task of investigating the shards of glass in Redrain, the Inquisitor will not be alone. No, he'll be accompanied by Morrighan, temporarily glued to his side while he's in the Ward, escorting him around the premises. The dame will ensure that no one gives Gareth a difficult time as he investigates and questions, but at the same time she'll keep the Prince-Inquisitor in check and make sure he plays nice with the Northern people.

Gareth will actually be hunting down this stuff. He is familiar with it, involved heavily in the study of the tainted glass. Gareth will be doing what Gareth does best. Following the clues. Interviewing people, did someone say something stupid? Did someone act suspicious at a specific time? Putting together a timeline, Gareth will be working out who are potential holders of the glass, and where they can be located.

Quietly, they do scour all over the Ward of House Redrain and find all the tainted glass and quarantine and collect it, with the ground being worked (and blessed) afterwards. After a week or so, grass does begin to regrow in the affected areas. It does seem to be contained for now.
