The Emperor had accused the Pennyworths of treason, claiming that they had plotted against him and the crown. He claimed that they went against the agreement the founding fathers of the empire came to. The accusations were baseless, but the emperor managed to fool even heaven's will when they brought up the contract the different families made during the empire's conception. The Pennyworths were stripped of their titles, their lands, and their wealth.
