"Do the other eastern nations do the same thing?" Wolfe asked, hoping that someone could answer.
"No, just the Grand Dutchies. From what I've heard, it's part of why they got themselves embargoed. They arrested too many travellers and accused them of serious crimes to keep the flow of prisoners going." John shrugged.
That explained some of the friction as well as the distance between the Gormana-held villages and the Grand Dutchies-controlled ones.
Wolfe looked down to the stage. "We can talk about the politics of the Eastern side of the Continent later, assuming that someone among the group knows enough to teach me. But for now, we should pay attention. It looks like they are going to get things moving again now that they have the bodies cleaned up and off the stage."
