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.

Also, point out that it would be hypocritical for Methiant to persecute the Alldiviners. Many of our great leaders, including Cyl the Great, practiced the faith, and the core of Methiant was carved out by Alldivine Battle Brothers. Even if we have moved on from practicing the faith, our history demands that we must still respect it.

Pantheists really don't give a shit about history or anything else if it doesn't benefit them, so I'm sure they won't care.

But come on pantheon guys, a little bit of wandering play can't be that bad right?

Hell, they could really look into doing their own spin on it too. Get a little Greek action going, with an actor and a chorus up behind em.

Money is good, but I don't forsee us passing any new edicts in the near future. The only edicts that might appeal to me are the Bill of Rights and Freedom of Religion, and either of those could mess up our union with the strictly pantheonist and traditional Kingdom of Cydwyl.

I keep forgetting how small our empire is. Smaller than half the kingdoms nearby!

I'm nervous about our money situation. We got a massive one off payment of 4 economy and that ended us at seven. That means we've got a net of -2 over the past year if you discount the one off payment of four, even though we just got spices that apparently sold really well. And we only had a single one off expense, the cartographers, so unless they took 3 economy for their little trip (which seems like an absurd amount) our economy is fucked.

BA The economy is mostly fine, there weren't any springwine sales last year because the last beast ruined the harvest, springwine tends to sell well, so that should explain the -2 deficit.

Oh. Ooooh.

Weeelp, time to revert 'v.

Give me a minute.

You decide it's not a matter for interference.

1178 AD, Late Winter

Grumbling a little bit, Graine has returned to the palace.

1178 AD, End of the Year

You can't help but wonder how the Empire has been doing. You feel like it has been a while since last time you saw Scrolls of Kingdom Status.

5to6, 5to6(1to3)

Happiness: 8
Population: 6
Economy: 11!
Army: 6
Imp.Authority: +2

"I'm pleased to announce that the Army got quite a lot of new recruits from both Methiantese citizens and adventurous travelers. Economy is at all time high but what's more important is that your joyful subjects, happy with your rule, have once again decided to try and help the Crown with monetary input!"

A) "I have no real need for peasant money... let them have it, instead."
B) -
C) "We shall commission a statue to strengthen our authority!"

"Furthermore, the Treasurer believes we shouldn't hoard all the money in the Treasury, and urges us to spend it on something for once!"

A) Time to ask the dwarves to commission us a powerful artifact of sorts!
B) Send a lavish gift to one of neighbouring countries.
C) Seek the services of a traveling and powerful Sorceress.
D) -
E) Sponsor creation of an bronze-cast statue of yourself!
F) Expand the budget of the Army, so it can maintain even greater numbers.

"Per usual, I will ask the simple question; shall you issue an Edict this year, Lady Empress?"

A) "k"
B) "nu"

"Also, the Cartography Charter has produced a new version of royal map. It will do so every year."

ACA Let's see if we can't get a breeding pair.

That is much more promising. Kinda sad we can't just fold the happiness gift into our Max Econ choice though.

We'll just pretend the Treasurer was still busy weighing each coin to double check its value.

Let the peasants keep their money. Don't we already have a statue of ourselves from the happy peasants earlier? How many do we need?

I don't believe the sorceress would actually give us another lazerhorse. Let's alternate magical weirdnesses.
No option for expanding the glassworks? Or some of the other things Weirdsound suggested?
(I might have voted to expand the army, but we'll see how things are going in another couple years when it's nearer the cap.)

I agree that the only edict I'm interested in just now is Bill of Rights, which I don't think will be devastating to our rule but is certainly contentious among the advisors. So no.

Hrm, apparently Gubta has been losing territory to Ysirene.

Didn't the first time the happiness proc happened the adviser implied that not taking the money would be an insult? Also, man, more statues is more gooder imo.

As for the money choice, I agree I'd rather have an artifact then a new pet, but I think I wanta have a sorceress artifact, not that i'm super holding a grudge against the dwarves, but we know they can take it away at any time, and we've not really got many (any?) sorceress artifacts so far, so I think it'd be cool to pick one up to test and see if it has a bit more longevity then a dwarf one.
