Line 22:

The corrupt former military commander of [[Rockland]], Grady took Rockland's taxes and kept them from himself. Eventually, [[Kraze Miles]] noticed that Rockland was not paying its taxes and sent the [[Imperial Guard]] in order to investigate the reason behind Rockland's tax woes. When a party of Imperial Guard members arrived, Grady placed the blame for the taxes on the [[Mt. Seifu Bandits]], claiming that bandit pillages had kept him from being able to collect taxes<ref>"You see, some bandits have settled on nearby Mt. Seifu, and have been pillaging the local villages. That's why we've been unable to collect taxes and deliver them to you." - Grady ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Though it was not their mission to do so, the Imperial Guard members went to [[Mt. Seifu]] and brought back [[Varkas]] and [[Sydonia]], the leaders of the Mt. Seifu Bandits. Upon hearing of this, Grady immediately imprisoned the two<ref>"We'll place them in this dungeon here." - Grady ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>, despite Varkas' protest that they were innocent and that it was Grady himself who was the tax thief<ref>"What do you mean, tax thieves? You're the tax thief!" - Varkas ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Grady thanked the Imperial Guard for their service, and gave them a cash prize, claiming it to be a gift from the townspeople<ref>"Please take this. A small gift from the villagers." - Grady ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Later, after the Imperial Guard left, Grady bound the men upon stakes outside his mansion, waiting for the two to starve to death.

Eventually, however, [[~~Tir McDohl~~]] and his party, some of the members of the Imperial Guard who had captured Varkas and Sydonia, learned how cruelly Grady was treating the two men<ref>"Outrageous! Execution without trial! Even by Imperial Law, that's illegal." - Cleo ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref> and, feeling that they were responsible for this<ref>"It's our fault." - Tir McDohl ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>, the group vowed to help the [[Toran Liberation Army]] rescue them. Thanks to a fiery distraction from [[Viktor]], the group was able to free the thieves. Grady would flee his position toward the end of the war, much to the delight of his subjects<ref>"Grady ran away, and hasn't been seen since. Good riddance." - Villager ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>.

Eventually, however, [[Hero (Suikoden)]] and his party, some of the members of the Imperial Guard who had captured Varkas and Sydonia, learned how cruelly Grady was treating the two men<ref>"Outrageous!
