@Downstairs:

"Ahh, I see." The Governor turned toward the two girls behind him. "Shae, please wait here for me and the Captain, will you dear? Simona, keep an eye on her." He then moved toward the stairs, leaving the green-haired girl and her red-haired protector with the Reich investigators.

//Shaelynn Peritz and Simona Randall are in!

@Upstairs:

"Let's go then." The Captain opened the door and moved through first. "As for the explosion, well, when it occured, the soldiers who rescued say, we were under a very sturdy part of the catacombs' ceiling, and- Governor?" The pink-haired Governor stopped in the middle of the stairs.

"Captain. If I'm not intruding, I would like a word with you."

"Of course." He looked at Siegfried. "Have something to eat, Siegfried, I will join you shortly."

Sichuan basin is occuped by Liu Zhang's troops.

//Why nobody told me that the dates are wrong again XV

You decide to spend the money you have on festivities, to distract the peasantry from your mistakes.


The caravans from Xane-Peon are here!

1, 2to3

Salt barely pays for itself, but the fabrics from the west have seemingly gained quite a few connoiseurs, and the profits from selling the clothes are greater than last year!


Still, the money doesn't stay in your Treasury for long, and is sent as tribute to Satorias, Maestrimar and Albarra.


"A Hydra!?" The peasant smooches the floor as you yell at him.

"Aye, m'lord! A vile, monstrous, seven-headed monster has left the Forest of Ancestors, stomping through our village, gulping down sheep and maiden alike! Then it spit brimstone and flames, setting our homes aflame and reducing them to cinders. Please my liege, save us from the monster!" Many of your courtiers groan and cry. There is possibly no worse time for such a megabeast to appear.

A) Desperate times call for desperate measures. We must find a traveling Witch, and fast!
B) It will feed for a while and then stomp back to the forest, we just gotta wait.
C) Our might Army will march forth, and, with numbers and strength, kill the monster!
D) I shall hire some lvl30+ adventurers to deal with the Hydra.
E) Give me my sword and my shield, and I shall personally slay the vile beast!!

PTW.

Maybe apply.

The Captain ran in the rear, making sure that his subordinates were-

And then, there was an explosion.


The first thing that Siegfried could notice was the white, plastered ceiling of the bedroom. Then he could notice the orange sky through the windows to his left. To his right, however...

"Good afternoon, Siegfried. How are you feeling?"

//Siegfried Jubastacheit is active!

It was a book full of mystical fighting techniques.

The Captain pointed his saber at the woman.

"I've told you, it's the end of this-"

"And I... have told you that... you're not leaving this place alive, huh?" She suddenly breathed her last, just as smoke began to rise from one of the sealed boxes in a thin wisp.

A very irritating, pudgent smell of vinegar filled the room rapidly.

The envoy, followed by twenty guards, proudly stomp into your throne room, announcing themselves in the most pompous way - that being trumpeting several trumpets inside the hall.

"Greetings, King Lycwl of Kastoria! My lord and master, the Invicible King Xon III of Satorias, Liberator of Albarrans and Conqueror of Evil, has agreed to give you peace on these terms." He pulls out a scroll from within his robes, opens it, and begins to read.

"Kingdom of Kastoria needs to be punished accordingly, so sayeth I, King Xon III, Sovereign of Satorias. Firstly, the Treasury of Kingdom of Kastoria will pay annual tribute to Kings of Maestrimar for the upcoming five years, and to Kings of Satorias for the next ten years. Furthermore, peoples of Albarra will be given freedom, and shall also be tributed Kastorian money for the upcoming ten years." Your courtiers gasp and murmur, and some weep openly into their sleeves.

You stir and prepare to speak to the envoy, but he doesn't even pause for a second before continuing:

"King Lycwl of Kastoria is not given the priviledge of negotiations this time, so says our ever-victorious master, King Xon III of Satorias. Your only choices is to accept these terms, or remain stubborn and foolish, in which case King Xon III shal conclude peace with your subjects upon ruins of this castle and over your dead body, in the coming years." He folds the scroll, looks around the hall, and then back at you.

"What say you, King Lycwl? Do you accept these terms, so that your people might finally enjoy peace, or reject them, and condemn your domain to further ruin and devastation?"

A) "Aye, I accept."
B) "I reject!"

It's not your turn yet ;v
