It doesn't make sense that a monarch would spend his time setting prices.

Maybe not the king himself, but the Crown (ie the kingdom's officials) were miserly with the powers they granted to the lesser nobles. A baron or whatever would be able to set the prices he pays for items (probably with restrictions should abuses occur, or as a matter of course), but the prices he pays to royal caravans would be a bit less under his control.

But yeah, this (however it ends up) will come when the economy gets looked at better.

There is actually a gap of somewhere around a month between adventurers, or after worldgen but before your adventurer, or after the fall of the most recent fortress and before your adventurer.

If you don't mind a few meta-comments?

1. Having Earth's population anywhere in the trillions is way beyond plausible. Even with terraforming of areas like Antarctica and the Sahara, having a population of 15 trillion would mean over 100,000 people per square kilometer. Or to put it another way, over three times the population density of Mumbai, across every square inch of land surface on the planet. I realize this is supposed to be 800 years in the future, but it's simply an issue of physical space. Even if you dot the oceans with arcologies, it would be unfeasible.

Underground cities?

2. The 800 years is another problem. There's simply not enough resources on the planet to support the current population that long, much less one that is a thousand times larger. We'd have left Earth long before, drowned in our own filth, or suffered a technological and population collapse.

Looted other planets' resources? Applied phlebotinum?

My suggestion would be to scale down the population to billions instead of trillions, and shrink the timescale to 200 years instead of 800. Especially since you're essentially discarding Earth early on. Just my .02.

Should be fine.

we must murder that smug bastard before he murders us

No, we should keep the prisoner.
OR
No, we should avoid antagonizing the Crown and other higher nobles. Pursue justice through legal channels.

There's no updates.
What are we supposed to talk about?

Curse his sudden yet inevitable betrayal!

Seriously, we need to contact the duke. But first, talk to Denton and Percival, specifically about the wisdom of revealing our evidence.

And yes, try to keep the prisoner alive if possible. If not, give him a restful death.

have everybody who keeps working atleast move their work into the light of the campfire.

Unless, of course, that's not possible.
The miner should definitely stop working, though.

set up a guard shift through the night, everybody should atleast get some sleep.

Agreed, although I don't think you'll find much argument anywhere.
