>>I can't imagine how they could possibly pay off any fraction of that significant enough to be worth mentioning -- certainly not doing scutwork, and probably not doing any job we would trust them with.<<

If one wanted to be filthy according to local custom, one might observe that a cley in the possession of a wizard can be worth a great many more lozens than a cley in the possession of an ordinary Cani, and that the gods have provided a means of transferrence. But I'm guessing that's up to Saza, since you (reasonably) want nothing more to do with them.

Seconded. There's something about forcing criminals into metaphysical prostitution that upsets my respectabilities. On the other hand, requiring them to do magical labor would be well within bounds; at least the more loyal of the pair has some magical skill; that may be useful to the farmers in some respect.
