Beastmistress Aletta takes note that Adelina decided to forego making use of Ara's soldiers, and figures that she wouldn't mind too terribly if someone else were to boss them around. She draws a line on the map circling two farming provinces and one of the medium cities. "I suppose I can let you play with the Academy for now, but I don't want to hear any complaints when I decide to make use of its facilities. In the meantime, I'll be taking control of Imperial Legions 1, 9 and 10."
[]Personal: Explore one of the Caladan cities, scanning the mind of noteworthy individuals, and attempt to find at least one competent person to serve as an officer in the military forces that I am to be assembling.
[]Personal: Visit one of the Farming Provinces and "procure" some horses using the Mistress of Beasts ability.
Requesting the use of 3 Caladan Imperial Legions
[] Caladan Imperial Legion 1: Recruit soldiers in one of the Farming Provinces. This will be a different province from the one I am visiting personally. The only criteria is that the recruits must be able to ride a horse and be in decently good health.
[] Caladan Imperial Legion 9: Work on procuring weapons and armor, and make it clear that I do not care how they choose to obtain it. I'll also make a point of not giving them any of my money for this task.
[] Caladan Imperial Legion 10: Work on tax collection in one of the cities. The money from this is to be delivered straight to my coffers. I'll need to pay my soldiers. At least until I find a way around that at least.
[] Dangerous animals: Establish a presence near the edge of Everwood Forest, get familiar with the outer borders of the area, and the nearby wildlife. Do not hunt elves unless they leave the forest.
