Mind-bogglingly popular game series that you follow from early on and cannot stop, waiting for new installment like a drooling addict.

Long-runner soap opera you're too invested into to just stop watching it.

A fun little comic strip in the daily newspaper that's been around forever.

3/6

Who said it's fun? I didn't for sure.

I'm just waiting here for it to die horribly already so it will stop showing on my Unread Posts list.

B I guess... Although. Man, the north west mountains are REALLY far away.

B Well I mean we are obligated to give anyone willing to go money to help with expanding if I remember correctly. I'd rather not be an oathbreaker. Methiantese/Luathbasian honor is the most honorable of honors after all! Unlike some foreigners *COUGH*Eldrican*COUGH* we don't go back on our word.

We are obligated to give money to individual settlers. These are nobles looking to fund their own personal prospecting and colonization project. I think we could turn them down if we actually wanted to.

The Treasury will be reduced a bit to sponsor colonies in the far north and northwest.

A reply comes from Rolant, King of Ysirene:

He is not interested in your familial disputes and thus is not going to find Saenn for you.

A) Fine then.
B) My soldiers will find him!
C) My spies will find him!

[Imic]

C
Might as well keep this civil....
... Let's not be an ass to him when he gets back, though.

[Weirdsound]

Where is Ysirene on the map? We have a full army and a cause to go to war so B is looking tempting, but not if we have to stir up a hornet's nest by marching our troops through a bunch of other Damdamian Lands to get there.

I honestly wouldn't care, but sooner or later his kids will come back "one true heir" style if we let him go. Regardless of his personal disavouments.

Now I'm wondering just how far we can take this.

Honestly, at this point I'm only voting C to see how far this goes.

You send spies to locate and bring Saenn to your court. This man's escapades are getting ridinkulus.

1169 AD, Summer

The Treasurer, the trade advisors and mine administrators have gathered to bring important and rather unsettling news. Currently, a significant part of Treasury is filled by pure silver and gold bullion, minted directly into coins. Over the years, the amount of bullion produced and thus coins minted increased significantly, and this caused the worth of the coin itself to be devalued. The findings of recently created Trade Commission helped cement the growing suspicion; Methiantese silver and gold coins are steadily losing on their value, causing prices to go higher and people's wealth to diminish.

The financiers advise you to take some steps to counter this problem, lest rapid inflation becomes a thing in the Empire.

A) Bah, who cares? We can always mint more coin!
B) We will curb silver and gold production, and thus reduce minting.
C) We will produce crafts out of silver and gold, and sell those on the market or abroad.
D) The dwarves are exceptional bankers according to lore and hearsays, maybe they could help us?

I'm a bit ashamed that my first thoughts on a post about inflation are. "Oh. Now things are getting interesting"
