The rest of this - is rather dubiously possible - she shall have to check with Gorthoklek whether the soul-sale system can be gamed in this way, buying the Project Lawful girls back at Hell's huge prices on them, paid in spellsilver as the market previously valued it - the definitions of value would not be written so as to allow people selling spellsilver back and forth among themselves rapidly to game the definitions of the godagreement, there'd be some other definition than the simple sale price, and that definition might lag the current price of rapidly-traded spellsilver in Avistan -

does Hell even get its budget back, if you buy souls back from them, can you get more of the budget back than Hell originally paid out -

- if it's all, in some sense, a bona fide transaction, if the devils in Hell bid up those souls among themselves honestly and without expectation of the prices being false -

- though, to be sure, Asmodeus would have paid extra in godnegotiations to be allowed to have some small loopholes like that, exploitable by the clever Asmodean for a local benefit rather than a continuing one, not because He expected to gain net advantage over other gods after that payment, it is just the way He would prefer to set up the system -

- Hell will sell out souls if the purpose is Hellish enough, not Good, and Asmodeus benefits in the end - they couldn't have set up soul-backed currency in Cheliax otherwise, you can't turn in currency to the Imperium and pick out any soul you like, obviously, but you could get a soul at bona-fide Dis prices on them -
