B Fineeee we can rebuild your suspiciously expensive stone circle of religious importance.

[Prophet]

B The Gods delivered upon us a 6 in our recover roll, and I imagine Cyrus would feel the need to be, at least for now, pious after his recent recovery.

[The Canadian kitten]

B

[Haspen]

You declare that through the wealth of your Treasury and strength of the Mammos, the Great Stone Circle shall be rebuilt.

The courtiers murmur and nod in approval while the Archdruid leaves happy.

The Treasurer, on other hand, makes some sad noises.

507 AD, Winter

Another report from Rycht comes with the very first snowfall. King Herykk has turned the tide of the raids and has attacked the Livonian soil with his troops, burning some villages in eye-for-eye retribution, while your soldiers continue to keep watch over his outposts and border towns.

507 AD, Midwinter

The snowfall this year is very heavy, and has been continuing for almost a week now. There's already accidents of collapsing roofs and many roads and hamlets are covered with so much of the white stuff that adult men cannot see above the heaps. Courtiers worry what might become of the Kingdom if this continues!

A) Send the soldiers to clear the roads and help out the people!
B) Alas, nature cannot be defeated!
C) Deliver sacrifices to the spirits and Creator to banish the blizzards!

A
rather not use more "sacrifices"

[Maximum Spin]

Have we ever done a super religious one, though?
C, the gods have smiled on us so far. More or less.

[Elephant Parade]

The sacrifices are probably animal and mineral, not human. But our economy is getting dangerously low, so I'll take A.

[Kashyyk]

B - Our army is guaranteed to take casualties, and it's uncomfortably low considering a chunk is not even in the kingdom right now

[Maximum Spin]

The gods will provide, you guys.

You decide to, once again, heap foodstuffs and moneys on the stone slabs, which had to be dug out from under the snow.

507 AD, One week later

The sun is shining strongly upon the snow-covered lands, and many streams have been formed from the heaps melting in the sunlight. The winds alike have ceased and nary a storm cloud can be seen anywhere near the capital - your subject towns and villages also reporting that weather has cleared.

"Glory to the spirits and the Creator!" You proclaim to the happy crowd of courtiers.

507 AD, End of the Year

As the outside gets a bit dark and tiny snowflakes fall gently from the thick clouds, the Advisor enters your chambers.

"It's that time of the year, my liege!" He says, rolling open the Scrolls of Kingdom Status for you.

Happiness: 5
Population: 3
Economy: 0!
Army: 2(+1 abroad)

"Our Treasury is empty. The Treasurer proposes another year of higher taxation upon the peasants."

A) "Yes, that is a good idea. Keep the taxes high!"
B) "They've suffered enough! We shall prevail somehow."
