The only issue is, don't we have half the stuff with us on a sledge? We could just tell your story and say we brought back the unspoiled half for them... Figure something else out for the beggars...
Correct; we took half and stashed it in the secret room beneath the burned chapel. The other half we stashed in a storage room. As far as anyone (except for that damn Ghost Beggar spy!) can tell, our hands are clean.
