We want as much cooperation between our peoples as possible. If there's going to be war in six years, we want as many people as we can call on, and the Hurthlings will probably owe us a solid for helping them out so much.

[NRDL]

A, time to stockpile allies.

The delegation squee'd in happiness and then, bowing many, many times made their way to the door.

825 AD, Midsummer

And an angry letter came from the northlands. Unfortunately, it's not signed only by the stubborn governor, but also several other prominent figures; noblemen and even a member of the clergy.

In the letter, they express their anger at the current development and even accuse you of 'hoping to make Hurthlings a majority, and Humans an oppressed minority!' You compose them a reply in an attempt to calm them...

4*

Two weeks later they send a reply, in which they admit they might have acted a litle rash, and will fulfill your mandate, but with caution, moderation and at a pace they dictate to the Hurthlings.

825 AD, Autumn

The Governor of Augas have sent a letter in which he confirms both the dispatch and the safe arrival of the revenue caravan to the Parsian borders.

825 AD, End of the Year

After several months of calmness, the year comes to its conclusion, and that means a visit of the advisor and Scrolls of Kingdom Status!

Happiness: 5
Population: 5
Economy: 3
Army: 4

No changes here.

"Now," the advisor sets the scrolls aside. "I heard that Your Majesty wished to speak with me?"

A) "Yes! We need to strengthen our nation, and therefore announce drafting of peasants into ranks of the Army."
B) "Yes! We need to strengthen our nation, and therefore announce recruitment of mercenaries and adventurers to bolster Army ranks."
C) "Sorry, it's nothing."

//EDIT: Fixed economy rating cuz I forgot you sponsored the Hunt.

Happier people means less of a morale drop. Also, what happened to the people we posted as road guards? Can't we get them back?

Nope.

Guess that affects happiness too.
But I believe if we draft, we'll be drawing from both Happiness and Population (in a way) while mercenaries just brings out Economy.
Wait, clarified, just Happiness (in general) vs Economy.

"I see." The advisor rubs his chin.

"Our nation is prosperous, our borders secure. May I know the reason behind your demand?"

A) "A white stag talked to me and said that a doe shall lead Lametanians in the future and destroy our Kingdom if we do not prepare!"
B) "It is simply my desire to have a strong Army."

[IamanElfCollaborator]

B
Our advisor will never believe us, even if we ARE the most charismatic king ever. Better to tell him we want all of our nation's aspects to be strong and leave it at that.

[NRDL]

B, when has telling the whole truth every really worked for a head of state.

You tell your reasons.

"As you wish, sire."

826 AD, Summer

Your wife gives birth - to a boy! She names him Ethelwulf, and as your heir he is bound to become Houlandin III, unless he decides to, for one reason or another, adopt some other regnal name.

826 AD, Midsummer

Guards report that dwarven magicsmiths have arrived at the gates! They came to visit you because  your father have bought their services before, and they are offering to craft an artifact for you as well.

A) No! We do not need any more dwarven artifacts.
B) Invite them in and listen to their proposal.

Turn them away politely. We already pissed off their kind before, we don't need to piss them off again. I don't think we'll survive ANOTHER epic quest.
