Omg it's the paint art guy, hi!
You decide to give the clergy of Mother and Father a tax exempt, written into the laws, so that nobody can take that priviledge away from them.
You also decide to divulge some of your powers amongst the high-standing courtiers, mostly some Counts and Dukes. They re-swear their fealty to you, and scribes gather to write down the laws and customs and priviledges and responsibilities of the landowners.
Congratulations! Kastoria evolves from
Despotic to Feudal Monarchy!From now on, more drastic choices as well as matters of foreign diplomacy (up to including wars and dynastic affairs) will have a chance to be veto'd by the noblemen. Not abiding by the veto might result in instability or revolts.
In case of economical or manpower troubles, you will have now an option to request money from the noblemen or call their military banners, providing much better outcomes than taxing/drafting peasants. Don't overuse these options, however, as it might (again) result in instability or revolts.

The Council of Nobles sends a large amount of cash into the Royal Treasury. The Treasurer rejoices, for the money sent alone will cover the tributes to Maestrimar and Kastoria till their expiration.

On top of that, the salt caravan from Xane-Peon results in some profits being earned by the Crown, too.
409 AEC, Summer
Tributes are sent to your victorious neighbours.
Reports come from the countryside and the cities; the clergy is preaching to the commonfolk that your victory was clearly a sign of Mother and Father seeing you as legitimate. Some people even began to praise your names, for delivering the simple folk from calamities of usurpation and oppression.
409 AEC, Autumn
Not all is fine and quaint in Kastoria, however!
The garrison at the Castle Dor have rebelled against your rule, and elected their captain, Digon Mentosa, as their leader. As the castle lies at the crossroads of several important routes in eastern Kastoria, its loss is of grave consequence.
A) Let's besiege the castle and teach the rebel garrison a bloody lesson!
B) How about I send a letter? Rebels love letters.
C) This is fine, no action is required!
