Gustadolph then returns to Aesfrost and finds that his uncle Svarog is illegally smuggling the salt and harboring a suspicions against him, regarding his son's death.

Commander Vimes reasoned that, given how the Nobbses stole so many things over the years (possibly including the de Nobbes signet ring), Nobby could be proven to be 'the Duke of Pseudopolis, the Serif of Klatch and the Dowager Duchess of Quirm'; however, Nobby keeps to himself the fact that his family possesses a larger collection of noble jewels which could prove his noble ancestry.
