(If you want to charge Maven with aiding the Dominion then you need a more specific crime, something like aiding in the persecution of Talos shippers or something.)

Francois nodded. "He is right."

"How did Laila's murder benefit me? She was a close friend of mine, we've known each other for years." Maven said sympathetically. "I mourned her death same as everyone...I attended her funeral." Maven almost cried when she said that last part.

Francois learned that Maven's cunning and speechcraft were her strongest weapons, ''This is why she wanted to represent herself. She seems to know exactly what to say.'' "Everyone in the Jarl's court knows that Laila didn't trust you anymore, that is why she put Thane Mjoll in charge of finding the Thieves Guild." Mjoll nodded in agreement. Francois continued "You two began to argue a lot because Laila was finally seeing you for who you truly are."

Anuriel wanted to discredit Francois' claim but she knew Unmid was also present in all those arguments and would back the claim.

"Our relationship did get a little rocky a few months back but we were still close friends." Maven said, this time it didn't convince the crowd.

"What do you have to say on the bank records?" Harrald asked Maven.

"Those, they were merely withdraws from the Bank so I could move my money to a more private location. I don't trust the Bankers Guild." Maven replied.

"Where did you put the money?" Francois asked.

"In a private vault, its location is a secret. My clan has used it to store our money for generations." Maven said.

"Can anyone back that claim?" Francois asked.

"I can, the vault does exist I have been there." Hemming said.

"I visited there one with Jarl Laila, when Maven donated money to the city for renovations." Anuriel said.
