Don't we have the option to reject?

Duuuurp .'v

You let your son's messenger speak with you first.

"Sire! Prince Atan asks that you come and join the fighting personally. Your experience, reputation and charisma will make the army unstoppable."

A) "ABOUT TIME!"
B) "Alas, I rather stay at home."

You declare emergency mobilization, citing the need to bring order to the chaos of this religious war.


Largen umbers of trained youth were sent to aid Feodh and Eidach.

The Spymaster appears by your side one evening.

"Any news about Ulan?" You pre-empt the Spymaster but he shakes his head.

"None. I bring other important news though. My men have managed to obtain evidence, or, rather, interrogate some captured agents of Ceodwell, suggesting that he is willing to or already is send arms and men to the Singularist cause." You surmise that would explain why the Singularists are converging in the south-east.

A) Time to inform Eidach about possible reinforcements or supplies coming from Ceodwell for the Singularists.
B) Let's keep this information to ourselves for a moment.
C) Send a message to your uncles, demanding they not get involved in this.

You send Feodh off to fight, and he eagerly rides south with his companions and aides.


Damdamian caravans have finally reached the Tven capital and much trading is done.

3to6*

Despite the higher tax, the people of Tven are willing to pay lot to get their new glass items; this lifts the spirits of the populace and fills your coffers a bit.

A day later you receive report from another big battle, again against the Acceptant masses; what they lack in tactics and equipment they make with large numbers of zealous followers.

5*

Unfortunately for them, Feodh paid heed to your words and delivered them a crushing defeat without getting himself into any risks.


Money from gold mines and gemstones from dwarves arrive at your palace.

Feodh continues skirmishing against Acceptants while Eidach healed well enough to lead his men against the Singularists who dared raise arms against a loyal Tven lord who refused to support their holy cause. This incident unfortunately cemented hostilities between the Duchy, the Singularists, and the Acceptants. Nothing good will come of that.


"Father, both my brothers are fighting in the field." Atan pops into your chambers while you're reading battle reports.

"Why I am not leading men? Do you think of me being worse than the other two?"

A) "Yes, you simply have no skills to lead an Army. Return to your studies."
B) "No, go and help Eidach, surely he will appreciate your help."
C) "No, because with Ulan's disappearance, I shall make you my heir, and I can't risk losing you too!"

You decide to help Eidach a little by sending a letter to King Eón, asking if he approves of the relationship.

Few weeks later you receive a reply that he does approve of it, and your son begins courting of fair Isfe.


Blessed be fates! Your wife has given birth to another child. Seems that nature works even if you visit Ygwylla's cold bedchambers once a season. The boy is healthy and well, and your wife names him 'Gavan', after her grandfather from mother's side.


There's an Acceptant uprising in the south!

The Acceptants, not willing to continue being targets of Singularists, have procured aid from some of ex-Luthian nobles, and armed themselves. The whole thing began with burning of a Singularist temple in the city of Adwychaenn, and currently Singularist militia and Acceptant masses are duking it out on the streets of cities like Airach, Luathbas or Felonsein.

This whole thing might turn very ugly very soon, if nothing is done. You convene with your advisors and officers.

As for emergency measures...

A) Let's declare emergency mobilization!
B) Let's keep the masses out of it for now.

As for the strategy against the uprising...

A) The Army will be sent to stop the Acceptant rebels from setting your Duchy on fire.
B) The Army will be sent to support the heresy against Singularist militia (since when they're allowed to have militiamen in first place?).
C) The Army will be sent to battle both sides of this religious conflict, to make sure both sides get equally punished.

As for your participation...

A) VERILYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!
B) Naw, no need to get involved personally.
C) How about I send Eidach, who was recently praised by his tutors as being prodigy in all things martial?

//Remember, no partial voting.

The door asploded under combined assault of Gregory and Jann.

22-0 = 22dmg

25-0 = 25dmg

You publicly proclaim that Acceptant heresy is welcome in Tven just like any other faith is.

Since your proclamation, there has been some loud complaining form southern cities and even violence toward Acceptant heretics, but the city guard remained loyal to you and had investigated and arrested the violent ones.

Nonetheless, this sours the mood quite a lot in the Duchy.


Late winter is perfect for late revenues from gold mines and gemstones from dwarves to arrive!


Time for Scrolls of Kingdom Status!

Happiness: 5
Population: 7
Economy: 5
Army: 7

Time to agree these look fine for now.


Bandits have appeared into the westlands!

The sore state of the Kiwi has forced many their peasants to take up a life of a thug to provide for their loved ones. Unfortunately these bandits began to spill over and cause trouble in western Luathbas, the largest such group numbering about hundred. You decide to...

A) Send the Army to squish the bandits into fine paste!
B) Send a letter to King of Kiwi, requesting they clean their mess!
C) Send a letter to the bandits, offering them amnesty if they become your subjects!
