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.

So, why the heck didn't we boil the guys alive? I think we should have had the option to do that.

Why did no one even try to capture the messengers? They already declared a never-ending crusade against us in our own courtroom, surrounding themselves with enemies, I see no reason for us to not capture the arrogant idiots. Even if they don't say anything the less Damedians the better.

at least we gave pantheonists a donation

You decide to see the collector.

The fat man in golden and silver threaded robes waltzes in with delight plastered on his face in most obvious of ways.

"Greetings, Emperor Houlandin! I'm greatly pleased that you've decided to grace my humble person with an audience! I'm collector and buyer of trinkets valuable and magical, for my own collections or on behalf of my anonymous and highly rich clients. As I've heard that the Empire would use some coinage, I would gladly buy one of the fabled artifacts your family has acquired through the generations! If I'm allowed to appraise your collection, I'm sure you will find my prices more than enticing!"

A) "I have no need for services of a vulture like you, shoo!"
B) "I'm only interested in selling..." (specify an artifact; only that artifact will be appraised and slated for potential selling)
C) "Fine, my servants will bring all the artifacts and you will tell how much you're willing to pay!"

C. If nothing else it'll allow us to sell some of them for better prices then they would otherwise be offered for.

I just spent a few minutes reading back through the year; and I think we're probably not all that badly off. Sure we spent money (how much did the priests take??), but we mostly had good trade results too.

Right now, if the price is right, I'd be willing to part with

Hopefully, having sponsored the priests, we can get some religious zealots for the war. Especially since it's a war of faith.

You decide to let him check and appraise entirety of the collection of your artifacts.

The merchant-collector appraises them thoroughfully, noting the craftsmanship and their magic, although you can easily notice that the material value counts for his monetary mathematics more than whatever magic they possess.

He then details his appraisals and tells his prices.

"I assure you, Your Majesty, that I'm a honest dealer and expert in trinkets and valuables. Therefore, is there any trading you wish to accomplish? I have to add that I'm willing to buy one artifact at most - a wise man never carries his entire fortune in his pockets."

A) "I'm going to sell... (input artifact name here)"
B) "But those prices, they hurt! Truly we can reach a better deal?"
C) "Those prices are stain on the good name of the Empire! Away with you!"
