The royal family is not an insurance company. They wouldn't pay out anything. The nobles invested of their own free will knowing the risks. It's not like a natural disaster happened. This would increase the power of the royal family and nobles would have to beg and plead to have a tax reduction. Not sure how in the world people invested this much on one voyage. A year of the temple's budget they could make like ten of their own ships. It makes no sense, there is a hard cap on how much a voyage could possibly make so investments wouldn't be unlimited that it would put out this many nobles and be a year of church funds.
The Diana thing is a seperate issue, and so is the church. Guess the church will have to sell some sacred relics to get by. The commoners relying on the temple for medical care is real real rough though so something would have to be done there.
Good news is our leads would now be the richest nobles in the country.
