The Deadline

For the upcoming week, Leonardo's schedule was quite steady...

From the inn to the cultivation chamber to a chat with Ingrid, then he would talk with Jeffery to remind the man to keep put in place. As expected, the church didn't dare release information to the public about the constant acts of banditry. Very soon, they would have to exhaust their personal wealth to appease the public by burning gold and silver. 

During the rituals of burning gold and silver, the church must have planned to burn half and maintain half of the overall donations. Even if they kept half, that would be a great income when combining the Human and Elven Domains into one entity. However, if they start burning their own money, things would get very problematic on Pandora's end.
