[Haspen]

You explain that you do not want to make allies at the cost of making new enemies, but exchange of goods would be welcome. The two discuss this, the envoy sighs, and instructs his translator.

"My master is sad to hear that you do not wish to embrace the loving embrace of Gubta Empire, as a simple trade agreement might not appease the Emperor, blessed be his hallowed name, but my master shall convey your message back to our homeland." Another pause for them to talk.

"My master also says that because the route to your Kingdom is known, he might return with reply from our Emperor, blessed be his hallowed name, in a year or two." The two bow and depart.

829 AD, Spring

The spies from the south report that one of the factions in Lametanian Civil War has been bled dry and destroyed after series of military defeats. The country is now split north-south in terms of territories between the remaining two factions.

829 AD, Mid-Spring

A strange plague seems to be afflicting the peoples in the north-west of your Kingdom! Apparently it causes irresistible desire to sleep and be apathetic, to the point that some less-willed fall asleep and never wake up, till their bodies give up from thirst and starvation!

There is something very strange, very malicious, and quite possibly magical at works...

A) Hire a band of level 20+ adventurers to find out and deal with the cause of this plague!
B) Send forth agents to find a wizard that can help cure this plague!
C) Order the royal alchemists, priests and healers to find a cure for this strange affliction.
D) Ask your dear elven wife about this, as she came from north-west as well.

[Tiruin]

Goodness .-. We're a kingdom against the Imperium an Empire.
Glad we're good friends with PARSIA ^{which we should keep because they're awesome.}

D because that can't take as much time as everything else.
We have to happify out peoples D: (More tournaments for your folks, dear KING?)

[NRDL]

D seems interesting, let's got more wifey interaction.

[Lucus Casius]

D, because it'll take five seconds and we can always do the others after.

[Haspen]

You summon your wife to the council room, and explain the plague and its symptoms. She sighs.

"Alas, my liege, I know well of these symptoms! It is not an illness, but a curse brought on by the vile Witch King!" The councilmembers murmur in unease.

"Are there larger numbers of spiders, wolves and wasps in the northwest as well?" The nobleman from that region, prompted by your wife, thinks for a moment, before shaking his head. That makes your wife wonder.

"Usually if the Witch King wishes to bring torment and destruction upon domains of hapless people, he also employs venomous giant spiders, packs of man-eating wolves and swarms of deadly wasps before or during the curse of sleep. Nonetheless, it is his doing, I am sure of it! He might have his new hideout in the swamps of northwest. I beseech you, my dear King and husband, find a powerful Wizard because only such an entity can match the power of Witch King!"

A) Let's do as our wifey asks and search for a Wizard.
B) Let's try something else first; namely, send the Army to scour the forests and swamps and battle this 'Witch King'!
C) How about we hire some 30+ level adventurers instead? They can surely match him in power as well!

[ZBridges]

A

[NRDL]

A, as much as it feels like we're being led on a snipe hunt here.

[I, Writer]

A) Let's do as our wifey asks and search for a Wizard.

[Tiruin]

Let's assume our wife is biased (because civil war + important person + personal experiences...may lead to a bit of bias). Regardless on IF we picked D, what WOULD be our best choice.

A

Because we're saving "B" for superhero last resort.

...Although C is always tempting because that has been a choice since ever. Leveled adventurers and the like. We never chose it yet.

[Skyrunner]

A

[Haspen]

You thank her for her input and announce that another search for a Wizard is to be commenced!

One was spotted in the south, but disappeared before your envoys could talk to him.

829 AD, Late Spring

The plague continues to spread in the northwest. Already there is report of over 200 who 'died of sleep' and five times that number of sleepy and apathetic people.

"Clearly we need to take measures right now than wait for a wizard, sire!" Say the councillors.

"No! No one but a Wizard can cure this vile curse, my liege!" Says your dearest elven wife.

A) Wizard!
B) Adventurers!
C) Army!!

[Tiruin]

A because let's give our wife the benefit of the doubt. THEN WE SEND IN THE ARMY.

[NRDL]

A, then we send in adventurers, what the hell is our army meant to do.

[ZBridges]

A, worth another try.
