I don't buy it. Given that they don't seem to live in a totalitarian state, and given that polities which are nominally kingdoms are in fact ruled by councils, it seems that their society has progressed to being accountable to the people. And given that most people haven't a whelk's chance in a supernova against Grimm, since their Aura is locked, such exile, unless you mean merely to another country (who would be unlikely to accept foreign criminals) would qualify as a very cruel death sentence. There'd probably be laws against such.

This is balanced by Remnant, societally, being more cavalier with personal safety, placing more emphasis on personal responsibility and less on institutional accountability. It's oddly libertarian. There must be limits, though. Exile seems just too mediaeval.
