Believed by who? The only WoJ I've seen on the matter was ambiguous, someone asked him if Ferro's gift was tainted like Lea's, and he said, 'Oh please." or something like that.
Which of course doesn't really answer the question. Was JB saying being sarcastic, dismissing the idea that Ferro could fall for something like that? Or was he being sarcastic about the idea that he would reveal something like that? Or he could just as easily have been saying, "Of course it was!"

I wonder about this.
Those caves were owned by a company or companies that were controlled by the Rampires. With the Rampires gone, would the companies be gone as well?
If not, then wouldn't the security and such still be in place?
kazimmoinuddin:
The management and possibly securit would definitly have been Demi rcv. So it is possible for a time the low levels managed it, but any magics or protections that required the rcv would have failed. So any tone would have gone after these outposts.
Rasins:
As to Ferrofax ... I can't believe he wouldn't want to grow his "hoard". Thus, I believe he'd have investments. He does have vaults (assuming Marcone's isn't the only one).
As to his value. I'd say he's orders of magnitude above folks like Warren Buffet or any of the Princes of Arabia.
Warden John Marcone:

Only if Bianca had a death wish (I know I know, but pretend she didn't expect to die via Harrybomb). Ferro is a Dragon, capital "D", remember? As in Immortal Force of Nature On Par With Mab. And Ferro is quite a bit more direct than Mab. I'm pretty sure if the ramps had been dumb enough to curse his gift, he would have wiped them out for the insult.
