"Do you see that devil, there, Ipani? Get rid of him and his ilk, first thing. He is not fit to serve in any uniform other than that of a state's prisoner." Upon spying a few of the keeper's mates lurking in the mouth of the alleyway he added, "And a condemned prisoner, at that."
Half Pint nodded soberly. "He will be dealt with at the earliest possible moment."
The Ritesman grunted. "It will be long and difficult work, ridding this town of miscreants and criminals, but do not surrender the struggle until it is finished. You should construct a large penitentiary, I think. Maybe two. And plenty of gallows."

"Do you like the thought of child murderers and rapists running amok in your kingdom? How will you restore order with such vermin prospering in the cracks, ready to monger chaos at the first opportunity? No, round them up and deal with them harshly, Your Highness. All of them. Once the work is finished, your city will be better for it, as will its general population."
