You send a letter to the rebellious governors, asking them to reconsider their ways, overthrow Iann and return into the fold of the Houlandines.

5*

Your letter throws the rebellion into turmoil; about half of the governors is willing to switch sides but then the other disagree, and Iann's mercenaries get involved against the cities' militiamen.

You win, althought the whole affair costed about eight hundred lives. Iann Eólwyn fled, last seen heading toward Kashite mountains.


Are the rumors true? Are your people rebelling across the Kingdom, the unpaid Army not willing to defend your Throne? Enemies buying out the loyalty of your men, the foreign powers preparing soldiers to take what's theirs by force?

The advisor brings you the Scrolls of Kingdom Status.

Happiness: 2
Population: 4
Economy: 0!(unpaid debts for next year: 3)
Army: 2

He then explains to you how bad the situation is, and how is there nothing that can be done about it.

"I'm afraid that you have squandered the opportunities to solve our financial crisis, Your Majesty." He says, and then takes off his beret, placing it on your desk.

"Good luck, Queen Aife. I thereby declare my retirement."

SPAMKINGDOM is done. Will you...

A) Continue as a distant relative of the previous Dynasty, rising to power in different place, at different time?
B) Retry the quest for power, wealth and epicness with different dynasty in different kingdom?
C) Quit SPAMKINGDOM, as it won't be just the same as it was?

You decline the offer of marriage to a fellow Luathbasian.

Future historians will have quite an enigma; despite best efforts of your servants, courtiers, and agents, nobody can find Sky Iron Knife. It is a mystery where did it go.


A letter from Governor of Augas has arrived.

Apparently, he made an acquitance of a traveling Gubtan merchant named Masala. One day the Governor mentioned that Luathbas Crown has treasury woes due to recent war, and this Masala has offered to buy any prized items that you might have for a hefty amount of coin.

The Governor wishes to know if he is allowed to invite Masala to your Palace.

A) Sure, maybe we can sell off something we don't exactly need.
B) Never! Crown Jewels of Luathbas aren't mere trinkets one can trade!

You decide to postpone all the projects and cut the Army spending for a year.

There was some minor rebellion in the south, the unhappy peasants taking up arms, but it was quickly quelled by local militia.

6

Another bout of rebellion was quickly prevented in the northwest by a wise governor and his agents.


A courtier from your castle just asked you one thing: are you going to marry?

Because his mother has this cousin of hers and that man in question has his heir, a celibate youth and a pious Pantheonist, who needs a bride. Therefore a marriage could be arranged if only you wish it.

A) Fine, I can't seem to attract any more important would-be husband.
B) Nah, I wish for a big name to marry rather than a small one.

You declare that your firstborn child shall be the next ruler of Luathbas.

The only good news this year are that the mining complex in northwest, which escaped the carnage, had managed to produce enough ores and gold to double the profits.


You somewhat dread this time of the year as the Advisor is about to- oh here he comes, hauling those Scrolls of Kingdom Status with him.

He presents them on your desk.

Happiness: 2
Population: 4
Economy: 0!(unpaid tributes for next year: 2)
Army: 1

You sob.

"Your Majesty, the amount of tributes and promises of monetary rewards your mother made to allies and friends of the Crown is staggering, not to mention the tribute given to the Damdamians which we only could pay in half this year. We need to drastically cut spending, lest someone simply buys the loyalty of our people! I won't offer raising of taxes, as it would be suicide."

You decide to...

A) Cut the Army budget for a year.
B) Postpone the construction of settlements and hovels for the poor.
C) Halt the treasury reform and spending reserved for it.
D) Agree to all of the above.

With a degree of disappointment in your eyes and a heavy sigh, you take the quill and write down your name besides the mark of Caus Ticus' signet. The Damdamian smiles triumphantly, takes his copy of the agreement, bows to you curtly and then leaves. Moments later, cheering and trumpets sound in the Damdamian camp.


You're Queen Aife, the next ruler of Luathbas.

Your country has just lost a very bloody war and a ton of agreements with other powers mean your Treasury will be constantly drained.

Your people are extremely angry at this defeat. Not only their belief in the superiority of your Army mercilessly shattered, they also lost thousands of brothers, sons and husbands. The loss of recent conquest was really just the icing on this bitter, gruesome cake.

Your courtiers convene with you to discuss a different matter...

"Your Majesty, you are known to be of rather... fragile health. We wish to know if, in case something happens, you had a choice of heir already?"

A) "Of course, it will be my firstborn child."
B) "My brother Ceodwell will lead the nation after my death."
C) "My sister Eirike will lead the nation after my death."
D) "I will let the council decide, as it surely makes good decisions."
