Action by Rook
It has been tasked to Rook to audit the Valardin family financial records to determine if there has been any foul play in the past. Cross-referencing archives of records in Sanctum and Arx to determine if anyone's ever stolen any money, used it creatively or otherwise 'played' with the numbers. Double-entries, offshore accounts, made up businesses and other such tactics to silo off money for nefarious or greedy reasons are the main interest of the investigation. Naturally the second step is whether or not any can be recovered, though this is of less importance than knowing if and what has happened.
Action by Isabeau
Princess Isabeau, acting as House Valardin's Mistress of Coin, will accompany Prince Rook to Sanctum and assist in reviewing what financial records may be found there as well as interviewing those who may have access to the accounts directly.
Result
Perhaps to some, the office of Minister of Coin promises a lot of dusty, dry work in warehouses and offices where the light of day is little more than a rumor. Yet as Isabeau and Rook work, they are clearly in their element. No out of balance condition is too big or too small for them to tackle. The four silver balance from twenty years ago? Reconciled. The 400 silvers gone missing a fifty years ago? Not missing - allocated and noted inappropriately, but used to rebuild a small children's park in Sanctum. Also found. When Isabeau and Rook get done looking at the books, they've balanced their hearts out - but find no evidence that any embezzlement shenanigans have been going on at any point that they can find. And that's how you balance the books.
