Actually, I have access to the granaries of every lord of D'Hara, and only one lord who makes a stink about me selling their food without reimbursing them.
That doesn't mean you cracked down on the lords, it could mean they are lax, you cracked down, or something in between. I wasn't arguing that the Lords were a pain with relation to food, simply that they can be a pain in general with listening to realm council or marshals on occasion.
