You offer your daughter's hand in marriage as a way of solidifying your nation's ties. When he points out that you have no daughters, you reply with a simple "yes". He accepts this, and leaves. The mages arrive later that day.

[1_{this is witchcraft}]

The marriage goes brilliantly, and only serves to increase the civilian mood by much more.

Late spring, 1 AB

Your advisor comes along and informs you that today, three years ago, the rebellion that caused the old empire to fall began, and the people are asking to make this a public holiday to the end of time.

A: make it a public holdiay
B: make it a public holiday and have festivals as well
C: don't.
D: host a knightly tournament, cuz why not?
E: make it a public holiday, have a knightly tournament and have festivals.

You host a huuuuuge party festival.

[2]

It goes well for about two seconds, until several dripunks spclashed with some guards which burned down the armoury... You get the idea.

Needless to say, the mood is miserable and sour.
Your advisor comes along...
"Sir, the mood of the people is terrible, we must do something!

A: we shall percevere...
B: have another festival!
C: blame Hrelden for the "accidents"

[Maegil]

C - "Those insidious bastards sabotaged our Independence party and burned down the armoury arsenal, they're trying to weaken us for an invasion!" Use the event as a rallying cry and milk it for all its worth.

This. Make a Trumpish speech about how Hreldenians are terrible people who barge into our country and take our money/jobs/women.

You inform them that all of your troubles were, infact, because of Hrelden's spies. People start to join the army more, and they start pressing you to go to war.

Early summer, 1 AB

The people have been harrassing you to go to war for a long time, now is your chance, since the actual Hreldens have been sending ships eerily close.

A: TO WAR!!!
B: wait, we shall watch them and see what they do first...
C: Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

[Prophet]

Lets go! A

[Maegil]

B
We're "Estovir the Rake", so let's be good rakes and hunt close to the ground - use the increased army to build border fortifications while we send agents to cripple the Hreldens as mush as possible. Burn crops, poison garrison wells and the horses' feed, assassinate staff officers and if possible their "emperor", set fire to the harbour facilities upwind of their docked ships, attack prisons and let the prisoners get to the guards' weapons while our agents disappear, that kind of thing.
If they attack, we'll face them with our defensive alliance and the new forts; if they don't, we'll bleed them white before attacking ourselves.

[Imic]

We need moar votes tho.

[Maegil]

What happened to the mouse warrior wife? Don't we get to hear her nagging for a command, test her as it was done to Sun Tzu, or get her strategic counselling unbidden?

[S34N1C]

The tiebreaker vote, eh? Tough one, both sides sound good.

Gotta go with Maegil's plan.
