|Effect = Description
|Value 0 = None
|Effect 0 = Penstock looks dark. "I would rather this matter had not been brought to her now. […] She already felt that the Masters were not serving her well. But this! Proof that they have deceived and defied her from the very beginning! It has been a blow. […]
|Value 1 = Any Story-backed</br>(1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15)
|Effect 1 = […] "''She'' won't argue. ''She'' is grieving and angry. […] So the Bazaar will grudge you nothing. But I do! Why must you pay in stories […] that she has spent five cities gathering? Why couldn't you make the coins of something that would grieve her less?"
|Value 2 = Lacre-imbued
|Effect 2 = Penstock shrugs. "If it satisfies the Creditor – there is plenty of lacre. It will not be missed. I know nothing of how such a substance can be forged into metal, but I leave that to you."
|Value 4 = Soul-tied
|Effect 4 = "[…] the census will take a lot of time […] inscribing the names will be more difficult still. Were you proposing […] an assembly-line of Rubbery men […]? No, you needn't explain to me. You're giving away nothing that will cost the Bazaar too greatly."
|Value 6 = Soul-tied and lacre-imbued
|Effect 6 = "The drawing up of the census will take a lot of time […] And inscribing the names […] more difficult still. […] Maybe using the lacre to etch somehow... […] My concern is ''her''. And this way of paying doesn't take too much to her, and so I have no objection."
|Value 8 = Evenlode-aligned</br>Evenlode-aligned and soul-tied
|Effect 8 = Penstock looks thoughtful. "I worry, of course. Perhaps we are agreeing now to an arrangement that will not serve us well. But it is not so dangerous as some promises you might make. I think it will do."
|Value 14 = Evenlode-aligned, lacre-imbued, and soul-tied
|Effect 14 = Penstock looks stark. "You're promising away a great deal," he says. "If the Creditor is unfriendly, it might do some damage. But you have held back the stories […] If she has to give up everything else, at least she'll still have that."
|Value 106 = (Any coin), minted in quantity
|Effect 106 = "At least there is a plan," […] "And not a moment too soon. Having the matter unresolved is now distressing her […] more than any outcome would. When I visit her, the air reeks with her displeasure." […] there is an ammoniac air clinging to his clothing.
