We're doomed aren't we?

The secret police? Hey those guys are in the chapter title!

That's a valid point.

Just a Skeleton Crew feels a bit iffy.
And sounds like Nail probably got told about Malhart's deal before the meeting/shooting where all purple broke loose.

Ahhh the efficency of a despotic state with extreme compartmentalisation, information control and insane lack of trust with a dash of report your fellow person asap

Are they the guys at the top? Do they crush, squash, and erase?

@Random Police: despite wearing the same uniform as the Royal Guard, Nail isn't one. He worked closely with Veda and she was probably the one who told him. See the last two panels of page 1994 and the first of page 1995.

Why weren't they involved in the first place?

Well, those eye's aren't doing anything yet. Maybe they are friendly eyes. :-)

Now do the secret police count as one of the pillars of the empire? The regular police ( I think) were named as such, but that doesn't mean the secret ones are related. In fact I was generally under the assumption that the Royal Guard filled the secret police role more or less in this empire. Despite being fairly out in the open, they do seem to operate in a similar manner to secret police with how they threaten people, specifically when someone says something "that could be interpreted " as disparaging of the Empire or the Emperor.

If you wanna get stuff complicate - call the secret police :D

But never ever think that things can't become worse...

@Sporf: they're the secret pillar of the empire.

The thing is that they have a dichotomy between the emperor and the president as a weird compromise to give the people a seemingly-democratic government while still keeping the emperor in power.

The Royal Guards are the emperor's secret police. The secret police, then, can be assumed to be the government's secret police.
