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.

Welcome to the Methiant Jewelry Warehouse! We've got gold and silver rings for DAYS!!!

You send diplomats and merchants to find some buyers outside Methiant.

1169 AD, Midwinter

1!*

Instead of positive replies from the north, you receive a letter full of dissapointment. Apparently, merchants from the north, who were trying to make money in Methiant, have been for years getting angry about the passage tax and blatant favoritism of the government. The recent establishment of a Commission soured their tastes more than enough, and thus turned with their complaints to their leaders.

Albionese have broken the trade deal they had with you, and longer will sell your merchants any furs and skins! Meanwhile, Helliste and Cydwyls are refusing to agree to buy your wares.

A) Mayhaps a bribe will help? Come on, our pricing is the best and our wares of best quality.
B) Fine then, there's plenty of markets in the world that we can conquer.
C) This is an insult, and they shall pay for it! Time to go to war and protect our trades!

[Kashyyk]

A - Lets get some more money out of circulation.

[Harry Baldman]

A

Some fine jewelry, perhaps!

[Lucus Casius]

C.  Not because I think it's a good idea--it probably isn't--but because declaring war to force other nations to open their borders for trade is wonderfully imperial behavior, and we really need to act the part of a proper empire.

[Weirdsound]

A

Fuck. I think we are screwed without the fur deal. Gotta try and salvage that.

[Hotfire90]

A Save the fur trade.

[Criptfeind]

A

Rip.

I guess we should cancel that.

[Haspen]

You send a reply to the northern lords, offering some quite lovely monetary gifts if they relent.

1169 AD, Late Winter

Not only your attempt at the bribe enraged the Kings of Cydwyl, Helliste and Albion, your courtiers themselves are murmuring about that your 'so-called' wisdom seems to be failing you recently. You can bet your Authority has took a hit.

Meanwhile, reports come from administrators and foremen around the Empire; border keeps have been, except few instances, all refurbished and repaired.

1169 AD, End of the Year

As the icy rain pelts your servants working outside on the courtyard, you muse on life and your decisions and future of the Empire. Then the time of musing comes to and end, because the Advisor shows up with Scrolls of Kingdom Status!

"Sire, our Army itches for a fight. It's numerous, it's well equipped, and expertly trained, and ready to fight!"

A) It won't get any fights though.
B) We ought to punish the Eldricans for not fully honoring that old deal.
C) Let's kick Parsian' arse once more, why not.
D) Northern lands do require a beating, on second thought. I've been too friendly towards them over the years.
E) About time we had a rematch with those pesky Lametanians and Rucusians.
F) The dwarves are too arrogant for me. We should knock them down a notch, he he.
G) We need to cleanse the Orcworld of its orcs!

"Your authority has been mended despite recent failure with northern monarchs, so mayhaps you would like to issue an Edict?"

A) Indeed.
B) Nah.
