talent is a measure of silver -- IMO, it is figurative for everything the master entrusted of value to the servants ... increase came from the attempt to serve the master (the master blessed the attempt)

from our POV risk is implicit in acting on faith (truth is there isn't risk in faith -- there is death without it) ... the master was gone on the journey, right?

the condemned man didn't try to serve by faith ... he drew back and THOUGHT he was protecting what had been given to him. The evil was that of disbelief and an unwillingness to even try to serve his master ...
