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.

Go and do the republican things here!


You decide to bribe the merchants to give up supplies.

Unsurprisingly, once the traders are given money, they give you the supplies your country will need. Grain, cloth and medicine are deposited in army keeps and city garrisons.

Another not-surprise is the fact that from Kingdom of Cydwyl comes a horde of refugees. The panicking people have fled from the regions near border with Helliste while Dogethe's administration apparently runs around in circles, unable to deal with this crisis.

However, your governors are afraid that the sudden influx of migrants might only cause problems in the future. They ask the Crown how to deal with Cydwyl refugees.

A) Deny them entry to Methiant! By force, if its needed!
B) Regulate the inflow of refugees, to ensure they don't overwhelm border settlements.
C) Let them all in, for good or bad.

B, assuming that means we control the flow in order to ensure they spread through the country evenly.

B Extra Population is always nice but it's important to practice moderation in situations like these.

B!

B, because too many will eat the storehouses up and result in roving bands of, well, bandits.

You order them to come up with some regulation of the migrants coming to Methiant.

1115 AD, Autumn

7!*

The idea of regulation and distribution of migrants was truly a work of a genius! That's what the peoples say about the system which ensures that every family from the north finds its new home elsewhere in Methiant. Crime and discontent are negligible, and the immigrating peoples praise your name more than their beloved Queen Dogethe.

Few days later a messenger arrives with haste at your court, delivering a report from the city near the dwarven fief of Zasitost just to the east.

"My liege, the dwarves are fleeing en masse from behind the tall walls of Zasitost! Something terrible must've happened there, but the stubborn and ever proud dwarves refuse to tell the governor what is happening. He asks that you direct the Army there for protection of the border." Courtiers murmur amongst each other at this unusual event, and meanwhile, you decide to...

A) Send a letter to Zasitost, demanding that the dwarves tell you the truth.
B) Ignore the dwarven exodus, you have enough on your plate to deal with.
C) Agree to the demand and send the Army to the border with Zasitost.

C, they probably dug too deep...

[Harry Baldman]

C, although I hope they're not going to kill the escaping dwarves or anything, that'd be shitty of them.

[omada]

C If it was the dwarves who asked for the army or just as precaution for something else coming

A If it is the governor asking the army to deal with dwarves

both if possible, without the dwarf killing part


God damn, and I thought that the civil war were making me scared
Let's try to be the hero of everybody

Precautionary-totally-ordered-NOT-to-kill-dwarves C. In a time of omens we cannot afford to ignore trouble.

Too bad we can't ask uncle Luath anymore, one of the war write-ups mentioned him getting aid from the dwarves. They might have filled him in on . . . stuff.
I wonder if there were dwarves tapping the Smoke Mountain? That sounds like something they might be mixed up in.
