"No. I've dealt with the local Inquisitorial branch, and the soldiers loyal to the king were sent back to Osgiliath and Pelagir days ago. Why?" Can we all stop this pretence that spies can be "dealt with", and immediately metagaming when I make it clear that a spy is in your vicinity. You are literally attacking what you "know" to be innocent people, because otherwise they're incredibly poor spies. Honestly it's far more logical to simply not talk about important things in the presence of other people to avoid spies, and even if you kill them all there will still be people willing to spill information. "Killing them all" would require you to murder the commonfolk, in its entirety. Privacy is also often impossible, but yes, avoidance, not removal, is what is used. Avoidance is impossible.
