Read the manual. Have the Cybervant train and work with the pottery crew. Alternatively, see what the Cybervant can do about the field. Give it two fishermen to try and resurrect the potato crop.

[Ardas]

We need to attend the wedding,  it will be an occasion to meet other lords of the realm as well as present ourselves and establish presence. Cybervant needs to be programmed for social occasion and act as our butler, to keep us both in line with existing customs and to tell us who is who during the wedding. Relying on one lord alone will be deadly in long run, pueblood or not. Peasants can carry on doind whatever they were doing so far.

[Prophet]

I don't think we are invited to the wedding. (why why do they hate us  ) Anyway should we build more shack/hut things for the miners we are trying to attract?

Going un-invited is kinda..not good though? we'd have to ask at the last minute and we don't really have a nice dress or anything.

Prophet may be up to something with the housing for the future miniers.

[escaped lurker]

Well, I think we should get the Cybervant mining, show the Warchilite to the hopeful miners and get started on that front. Though reading the manual really can't hurt, and should be one of our priorities. Or... let Toel'ix read it to us, that is.

I doubt that planting the potatoes again, especially in late fall, is a good idea. I never really heard of potatoes as a winter crop, and even then the field is still full of those parasites. Some sorts of grain are able to grow during winter, but if they have these here is another question.

Else, building some shacks for those potential miners is a good idea, and something with what we can't really go wrong with.


Ask Toel'ix if there are any kind of competitions that nobility normaly do, or what a common past-time of them is. If it is anything complicated, we ought to start on learning such stuff during the winter, as I doubt we would have to do much else.

It would also be of interest how our treasury looks like with the recieved payment. ( I actually would think that + / - ought to cover that nicely. No need to crunch any kind of numbers then. )

Else, going uninvited to the wedding is also something I would advise against. Like 3man75 said, we are not even remotely dressed for the occasion either. We would have to impose on Lord Cowen for that then, so I doubt it to be a good idea.

Year 1, October
You get your new Cybervant mining. Toel'ix inputs the codes into the machine and directs it to the mine. It gets some work done, and you get a few shards of warchilite. Showing this to the miners in nearby villages you get some to work for you. They get a lot more work done, giving hauls of warchilite, enough for a small fortune. This attracts more miners and traders to stay at your town. The traders swear fealty to you and promise to sell warchilite at the highest price they can.

You build more shacks for the immigrants. Some of the traders start building their own with their own workers, but the rest are thankful for the help. However, some of the wood had been infected with termites, and they collapse. Unfortunately, some of the villagers are hurt. One of them is crippled. The villagers don't blame you though. No one knew the wood was weak.

You ask Toel'ix what kind of past times nobles usually do. "The lords usually participate in jousts or melees, while ladies groom their sons to fight and rule the lands. Ladies pass the time by falcon hunting, or meeting with each other, though it is not unheard of female jousts. Those are quite rare, but the Armazonn warrior women do it all the time."

He also helps you work on Terran by using the new manual as a textbook. You learn much quicker, and now you can read most literary works and write a few words. Meanwhile, your treasury is filled. The profit you made selling the eel, plus the warchilite will make you very rich, but that makes you a very big target for bandits and other enemies.

You got lucky with the warchilite rolls. Not so much with the house building though.

Well i guess we should continue mining and rebuild the shacks/huts and i want to know if the game continues with our children. (I miss rocky but now i have you Mr. Bunny hugs stuffed bunny toy.  )

[Worldmaster27]

Have some Lowborn cut down more trees. We should set up a few watchtowers or a pallisade to keep out brigands. Check combat capabilities of the Cybervant. With whatever wood is leftover, try to set up more housing.

[3man75]

Ask for one of the traders to go to the city of Lord Camden and bring back loyal guards{Craftsmen also to mold our walcrilite into necklaces like the steward said} promising food, lodging, and good pay in return for keeping the village safe from bandits.

It may be a good idea to ask our villagers that on the meanwhile to prop up a wall of wood around the immediate village. Houses get priority but we NEED that wall eventually. Oh and i think we should ask our steward {or our trader friend} to teach us on the skills of bartering. I think we'll need that for immediate trade deals and future interactions with other royal figures/bandits.

[Cheesecake]

You continue the game with your heir, should you die or otherwise cannot continue. They will inherit all your lands and titles (unless stated otherwise) and their standing will depend on who the father is and how pure their blood is.
