I think at a physical table we'd talk it out, sometimes the holidays and async playing is rough for an onthefly plan. Depends on how much she's over budget, how much she's paid out for labor, there's the miner's guild which is the baseline for budget but she's cutting corners on cost. That might give us some funds to indirectly spend for the solution. But what we want out of things I think would be a group decision, Besides if I'm playing an ahole noble type that is a bit crash and shady... well I can think of a way to save on labor.

for me is mostly to understand what happened. so access to the tunnels for our unmasked selves and any information she has on the dragon eggs and accident. All else is bonus :D
I'd say minimum we want access and all information regarding what's in those tunnels (maybe who's involved in it). We will convince the mines/refugees to work again once we know that it is safe, so she can have her labor.
Moving the discussion here. So looks like these are the potential demands:
Tronus wants some notion of her financial situation, perhaps including access to her books.
Nekurr wants access to the tunnels for the three of you unmasked (whom she assumes kidnapped her labor force for some reason). He wants her to reveal what she knows about what's down there, which you assume to be dragon eggs.
Nekurr offers, in return, to convince the refugees and/or miners to go back to work.
@mcneils5 hasn't been posting since the holidays, so I hope they find their way back to the site!
Remember that she's suspicious of you and your motives, and so far you haven't offered her anything. But there may be some things she's just not willing to give up, no matter how well you roll. So far, I think asking her to grant access to the tunnels for your unmasked "associates" is your cleanest play, with access to her books being advantage/triumph territory. But you'll have to tell her what's in it for you—are you sticking with the "we want the eggs" story? Are you pretending to be mobsters muscling in on a major public-works project, or something else? In return, you promise to restore her access to either the miners or the refugees; you pick.
