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.

If they wanted support they could have come to us privately and gotten the bastard alimony special but now we gotta deny it in public.

[Basil ii]

A this is bad really bad but I believe that we can handle it.

[TankKit]

A.
We can't risk it. If needs be we can have a private chat with our wife and/or the noble later, but not now. Not in public.

[Haspen]

You decide to deny it fervently.

The father, the girl and the babby have to leave and courtiers give them glares, but some of the courtiers also give you some stares as well. Some might be suspecting that you lie, few might be even convinced of it.

You can bet that they won't see it a good light when they consider how much of an 'Emperor' you are!

1195 AD, Mid-Autumn

You're called to a council on economical matters. "Is it about the inflation?" You ask, and the advisors agree.

"Yes, it is. We can all agree that the prices are goign down and our currency has gained in strength."


Inflation has been removed from the Empire.


"We must avoid over-minting our precious metals, and make sure to invest the money to keep it healthily flowing through the system."

The fur trade brought enormous profits this year! This only adds to the money made from silver and gold mined in Methiant. Furthermore, Parsian gemstone are of very good quality and earn a bit.

You learn news that Hein I of Eldrican made first diplomatic moves; he has re-strengthened ties with Lametania and Rucus, by the way of setting his youngest daughter Una with one of Rucusian royal princes, as well as setting newborn Alfyn for marriage with Lametinia, second daughter of King of Lametania, Lamallus I.

A) And that is good, we will be one big happy family in the future!
B) This is an insult - shouldn't my children get priviledged deals?
C) We can't be worse. Let's send offers to Lametania and Rucus, too.

[TankKit]

Hmmm. You know what? C. Let's go diplomatic.

[TankKit]

Wait, no, those are places we still need to get revenge on. Changing to A.

[Weirdsound]

C

As much as I'd like to invade those places, if we befriend them, we don't have to worry about them stabbing us in the back while we pick fights with The Republic,  Rosama, and perhaps even Albion.

[omada]

In doubt

I don't know what we will offer with "C" maybe we can get support in the "shadow war" against the republic and maybe even get some blind eyes when we move our army there

if it's marriage maybe we should go "A" and try first with marrying our boy with some helliste princess and try to annex diplomatically, although helliste is too small and will get smaller for us to not eat them alive or force then to accept being our trade route to something

[TankKit]

I'd rather not fight Rosama due to the pact we have not to go past the mountains and screw with them, since it would be sort of hypocritical for us to break oaths when we constantly get mad over other people breaking oaths. Besides, they'll break it eventually.

Our kid sister is already scheduled to marry a Helliste prince any time now.

I think a military alliance is our best possible move with Helliste. They have to live in fear of trouble with Rosama. We have to live in fear of trouble with the Damdamians. It would be nice if we could have each other's back. Perhaps our Charismatic father could help us come to such an arrangement at the upcoming wedding.

Exactly. We now own the Parsian lands they have been known to attack before, and Yoe IV could live a long time. I'd say our odds of fighting them in during Yoe's reign are at least 50/50, even if we don't go looking for that fight.

[Basil ii]

C what a pain eldrican and it’s allies have proven to be we need to break that alliance as fast as possible.
