*Spoilers* The Torture Victims

[superluser]

Who says they need to be capital offenses? They could simply be executing everyone in the prison for whatever reason. They could always claim that whoever it was died in prison from various reasons. I mean it's not like a prison board went around to makes sure prisons are up to code, or keeping track of on-site deaths and comparing them to other provinces.

Yes and no.

They might not have official death/kidnapping statistics, but if they heard of a new kidnapping every other week, then they'd probably send somebody out to check, if only to make sure that Alexander was getting *all* of them, and that there was no chance that the crime ring might be large enough to operate in their lands, too.

On the other hand, if these murders are on the books and if, for example, the prison death rate for jaywalkers skyrockets, there might be some questions raised as to why so many people didn't return from what were supposed to be short sentences. At the same time, capital prisoners had to appear in public for their executions, so a pattern of mistreatment would probably earn the Baron a reputation, though probably not enough to send people by to investigate.

I still think the baron offering to kill prisoners from other lands is more plausible than either of those possibilities.

Also, I don't know how to access all the journal files, but could someone check the "scope" of the game? What is the date of Daniels first kill compared to the date of him drinking the amnesia potion? How much time passes from his arrival to the end?
