Ethan blinked.

"Yes. How are you taking this so easily?"

"I just asked you to help me write down words for when I flee Alvada."

4697
"My coronation speech, a listing of royal relatives with a claim, and my abdication speech."

"In that order."

4698
"Great." Ethan stared at Gawen, and then just shrugged.

"Paon, I assume you have been at the palace for decades, yes? You good with writing speeches, country history, and the genealogy of royal family, right?"

4699
Ethan watched the two walk away.

No, Ethan, shouting that you 'will hire another crew' won't help. Listen to Claude's advice. Think before you speak.

And so, Ethan, having thought it over, decided to not say anything, for once. He turned around, walking in opposite direction from Lysander, and left for his chambers at the palace.

Unfortunately, he wasn't going to stay quiet near the guards.

"Where's the guy, Paon? The old one."

4700
Ethan scoffed.

"You're right, I don't understand, no. Besides, at the rate everyone's suddenly finding things - and people - to go after, the crew will be soon reduced to one person."

4701
"Right. Look, I'm not dismissing you because you lack skill, but because you're... a bad privateer." Ethan considered.

"Well, not a bad privateer in terms of your combat prowess, but..." Ethan let out a sigh.

"Look, Lysander, you're a nice kid. And that's why you make a bad privateer. You're more of a protect-your-friends kinda hero boy, not a ruthless seafaring murderer."

"That's why one time I considered simply having you leave the crew. Because of that I spoke with Gawen who seemed to be agreeing to have you serve her family instead. It's a job on land, and I assume with all the duties you had on ship, all the comforts of a landdwelling life, and much less murdering." He rubbed his chin.

"Unless she forgot to tell me something..."

"So, yeah. I thought Gawen had already told you about it, which apparently didn't happen." Ethan crossed his arms.

"You're going with him, aren't you." He looked down at Ashlyn.

You let the rebels flee and instead take your forces to chase down the pretender.

A week later, a scout reports that Velason's army is camped just few hours away from yours.

"Sire, there has been crestmen of minor feudal lords from Velason's homeland. His army numbers nearly four thousand at the moment, with a large part of infantry seemingly soldiers and mercenaries rather than peasants with pitchforks, and the cavalry, which comprises at least a third of his force, seems to be properly equipped as well."

Your officers gather for a council with you.

A) "We shall negotiate peace with the pretender!"
B) "We camp here and wait."
C) "We retreat somewhere safer."
D) "Time to fight him, and the fight shall be a glorious one!!"

Forum games dying could also be something the players are doing. I'd wager a key culprit is no socialization. 99% of games just have the votes and that's it, and the few ones that do have more to say than A, B or C have a silly/memetic vote. That might demoralize the GM and contribute to a flatline thread. Surprised no one brought this up.

Excuse me, having lots of people post only votes is the spirit of highly-popular SPAMKINGDOM; exactly because instead of having to write out long posts, they can participate by simply casting a vote.

(Plus, I would be glad if you would pay attention to Game of Three Kingdoms - you already missed a turn.)

The scriptor took the tome and counted out coins for Venza. Ka-ching!

"Mistress Helga took her quality tomes for her trip to Herzgottia and Tatalia, and the remainder is unavailable. The ones that are for sale currently are tomes inscribed by myself." He took the tome and looked on the outside and inside it.

"It's battered and mostly depleted, and refilling it will take time and resources. I can give fifty gold for it."

Oh man I remember the good times of Kael's server.

Those were fun!

~~Allies Turn!~~

The Captain moved forward and stared at the damaged statue.

"This isn't the Reich thing to do, Niels. We can't just go and turn Overseaslander monuments to rubble."

~~Player Turn 2~~

Suddenly, a young axeman burst from the bushes - and crashed right into Brunhilde, who was standing in the path.

From the trees from where the axeman came from, distant yelling and angry shouts were coming as well!

//Jann is now active!

Ethan grumbled somewhat, placed his hands on his waist, and stared down the hallway.

"Right. I did that. Hrhm." There was a moment of thought.

"I will talk with him again. Explain things. I will try to be more thorough." And so Ethan went, staring through the windows and checking corridors, until he finally happened upon the two lovebirds in the courtyard, sitting on the bench.

Ethan fake-coughed very loudly to get some attention.

"I need to talk with you and explain... the thing... with you. Your future or the lack of it on my ship." Ethan then tried to start his tirade, but thought about what Claude and Gawen said.

"If you're willing to listen to what I have to say, of course."

4709
"...but I'm good with words." Ethan crossed his arms, staring at Gawen who lagged behind in escapist department and was still around.

"I say the thing, I mean the thing, I want the thing to be done. How's that bad?"

Venza found the renowned Helga's Bookstore.

She was missing, though, and in her place was a youngest in a robe of apprentice.

"Welcome in Helga's Bookstore, sir. My name is Joris the apprentice. How can I help you?"
