Yeah! Loving all the aspects of it, and the original series got a bit boring, to be honest.

It's quite good, and has everything a SPAMKINGDOM should have.

It's okay, wouldn't mind seeing the original series updated again though.

You decide to explain yourself.

3*_Pfffffffftt

You end up outside her bedroom. You decide to give her some time instead.

Hopefully, measured in weeks, not months (or years).

410 AEC, Summer

The money is sent to Satorias and Maestrimar.

410 AEC, Midsummer

As you eat the dinner with your beloved second wife, suddenly you feel the vibrations of the ground. Then the walls rumble. Then the whole castle is shaking!

Earthquake!

As usual in this situation, most of the people go out onto the streets or courtyards, and same happens to you family and you.

3

There are few bruises when you and your wife tumble down on the floor due to all the shaking, but the worst comes from the broken leg of your little boy Kemen, who falls down the stairs. The healers take care of him quickly.

Rubble gets strewn across the yard and you see guards yelling as the quake tosses them off the walls and towers. Over the walls you hear the screams of the citizens of the capital, as well as intermittent, thunderous rumble of a collapsing building or two.

Then, as quickly as it came, the earthquake is gone. People sob, stable animals neigh and moo, and all is tranquil again.

410 AEC, The next day...

The Governor arrives at your study with a preeliminary report on damages to the capital.

"Your Majesty, the damage was terrible across all the districts, but it was the temples and houses of trade, the largest stone buildings besides the palace, that suffered the most. I've talked with owners and they all bemoan that repairing or rebuilding the lost buildings will drain their pockets of money. I suggest that the Crown donates money to the people of the capital to help with the reconstruction."

A) "Sorry, ain't got the money!"
B) "Sure, we can donate some money to help those in need."
C) "I will donate lots of money to show off my generosity and benevolence!"

We have money problems, can't really afford to donate that lavishly.

Forgot that we didn't actually spend money on happiness last time.

[Weirdsound]

B

The churches ain't paying taxes no more. They shouldn't need our help rebuilding the temples. We can fix the trade district though.

You decide to donate some of the Treasury's money to help rebuild the capital.

410 AEC, Autumn

The natural world sure isn't friendly to Kastorians this year. First the summer earthquake, now torrential rain and floods that inundate the coastal farmlands!

The most affected villages are washed away by the waters, and their crops and livestock are destroyed. Many face hunger and even starvation, and the governors and elders are sending letters to you, begging for money to buy grain for the coming winter.

A) Sorry, I've already donated enough this year.
B) Of course, I cannot let my people go hungry.

You decree that money shall be sent to the affected villages.

410 AEC, Winter

You're reading a book at your study when you hear it. A low, continous whistle that picks up on volume.

Then, through the window, you see a flash of light and a thunderous explosion, although there's little of exploding dirt visible.

The commotion at the castle caused by the strange (and startingly loud) occurence goes on for a while before some men arrive, having braved the area where the explosion came from.

"Sire! A rock has landed into a crater on the fields outside the city! The rock is black and bears speckles of blue ore!" Some of your wiser couriters as well as some advisors murmur between each other, before the Advisor steps forward.

"My liege, it seems that some pieces of Sky Iron have been delivered upon our soil! It is a rare occurence, and the metal fetches lots of value upon the market, and can be fashioned into powerful items of magic and sorcery. However, the clergy of the Mother and Father would gladly sacrifice the ore upon the altars, so that the gods would protect our nation from catastrophes and general bad luck!" You rub your beard thoughtfully.

"Who in this age and place can create artifacts from Sky Iron?" The Advisor nods.

"The Drakes, the closest living at Cbran, for a price, and of course after lots of work. Would be a trifle thing to make for a Witch-" Your courtiers grumble at the Advisor, who falls silent.

A) "Good luck and prosperity is what Kastoria needs. We will sacrifice the ore to the gods!"
B) "We need money, and if the ore can bring us some, we shall sell it."
C) "A Witch! Surely this is a good idea. Find me a witch, then!"
D) "Send the messenger to the Drakes of Cbran, I would love to see what their artificers can accomplish."
