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, but make sure he's heavily guarded?

[Criptfeind]

A because we don't know how heavily guarded he needs to be... He can go if we can actually make some sort of peaceable contact with them.

Also I'm pretty sure this isn't the first time we've met the bird people, and we couldn't make peaceable contact with them the first time.

New goal, make leath be considered a major god of the pantheon before he sits the throne

his spheres will be peace, charity and diplomacy


his majestic marble statue will show diverse races hugging him with tear on it's eyes because of the failings of their past while a minor birdman sits on his arm with a face of pure admiration (and a small engraving on a book of someone says "haiku with birdman 101 by Yoe")

[Kashyyk]

A - Wait until we know they aren't murderous first.

[Weirdsound]

B If he bites it, that means we can make Prince-one-eye our heir, which means moar warfare!

[Harry Baldman]

B

adventure!

[VoidSlayer]

A Didn't the last time the bird people just murder our diplomat for no apparent reason?  I don't remember, I just assume that is why we didn't get in contact last time.

Also getting out son eaten by bird people is sure to lower authority.

[Criptfeind]

Well, I guess last time we just... Ignored them, and stayed away from them? So I guess we don't know if they are inherently hostile.

You give Leath your blessing to go and establish diplomacy with the birdmen!

1143 AD, Late Summer

3*

Most terrible news reach your court. Leath and his group have managed to establish contact with the birdmen, who were found to be primitives. Either he angered them in some way or they decided to get him out of their mountains, because a skirmish occured and Leath has been wounded in the abdomen by their spears, and several of his guards were killed (and so were few of the birdmen).

The remaining part of the group have taken Leath to a nearest village to put him under care of healers ASAP.

You eagerly await any news about your beloved son.

One week later

You whisper his name but he does not respond. You look at his face but it is pale and devoid of life.

Your son and heir, Leath, have died of his wounds. The guards brought his corpse, wrapped in finest of white linen, just this night, away from people's eyes, to the capital and to your palace.

Already the birdmen are being hunted by some of your soldiers and peoples of Donuth as punishment for this most sacriledgeous of murders. As Leath's second son is too young and Houlandin is an adult, the council gathers to determine the next heir.

Both your chief advisors and the Council of Statesmen believe that Houlandin should be annoited as the next heir to the throne of Methiant Empire, considering his experience, skills and reputation, even if by the current laws of succession it's Leath's son, Anwyn, who should be officially annoited as heir.

A) Houlandin has definitely earned this honor; when time comes, he will succeed me as the next Emperor of Methiant.
B) We cannot go against laws and traditions of our nation! The little Anwyn will be the next in line to Methiantese throne.
