Not quite full, Sire....there is always room for the odd miscreant or two, some of whom are quite odd indeed.

I have been toying with the thought of soft-releasing an occasional prisoner so that they can be engaged in Good Works, viz:

Helping to clean up after recent diasatrous floods, some of which occurred a mere few hours away from the Imperial Oubliette. Many towns, large and small, suffered a great deal of damage so the clean-up will be ongoing for some time yet. It occurred to me that perhaps the less recalcitrant prisoners could be of use in said clean up?

A side gig of this would be to hold, each evening, a banjo concert to cheer those hapless souls who have lost homes, businesses and possessions and to remind them that, bad as their plight may be, there is always someone worse off.

If this meets with your Imperial Approval the process can be expedited - just think of the brownie points it will rack up for your reign!
