=The Ministry of Inquiry=
A later addition to the House of Justice under the reign of '''Margurim III''', the Ministry of Inquiry serves as a fact-finding and verifying body for a wide variety of cases. The Ministry is geared towards those wishing to enter the world as independent detectives and prosecutor, people who are skilled in finding information that cannot be found in either the Empire's libraries or even the Archive of the Ages. Investigators in the Ministry are known for intense and tenacious investigative work. However, the Ministry is not without controversy. It had once accused Emperor Margurim IX himself with responsibility for sending an Imperial invasion force to their doom when they were dispatched to eliminate the Raptorlords of the Northern Sea. Though the Emperor ended up avoiding conviction, the proceedings in the Royal Judiciary divided the people in the duration. Investigators today toe a very fine line between acceptance and controversy for the sake of justice as a result of that investigation, sometimes making them more feared than even the military within the Empire.

==The Department of Detection==
The Department serves as the first phase of an investigation. The Detectives of the Department use a variety of methods to scrounge up information, including detailed searches for physical evidence, interrogation of witnesses and other people of interest, and deductive reasoning to tie the two together. They also work with other institutions to accomplish this task. They have been known to request official findings from the policing forces to determine collusion of testimony, as well as bringing evidence to the College of Magical Arts to pick up magical signatures which may lead the Detectives to a suspect.

==The Department of Prosecution==
The Department serves as the liaison between the accuser and the Royal Judiciary. The Prosecutors of the Department compile the findings of the Detectives to present a case to the Judiciary. As the Detectives find information, it is up to the Prosecutors to find the truth in them. They do this by getting to know the people involved in the case, including the victims, the suspect, the witnesses, and experts if the case has precedent. They also have a mastery of the Imperial language, which they use to convey their case. Their job is a psychological one, trying to glean more information from the people involved and then trying to convince the Judiciary of their correctness in the matter.
