-My Chancellor You are taking too long to visit again the poorest, they need to love you
-Chancellor our nation will only prosper when you...
"My dearest people..."
And silence was made, he (Or it's a she? Can be his twin working for him again, hard to know) liked to observe a lot and sometimes only answered others in reports or the action being already made, it was sometimes annoying to talk to him without knowing if he is listening or daydreaming in his books and paperwork.
"... You have to stop looking inside our borders, in 3 weeks there are gonna have a meeting of the council, our nation is still small and can be easily forgotten by the council, the memberstates everywhere is getting their old rulers dead and new faces will control the destiny of the empire, I am not going to do the same error of my ancestors blessed they be, the people will love me when they see the luxury becoming an everyday life we need to seek opportunities abroad, one third of our wealth (2 wealth) is already being allocated, and scholars are going to all corners of our empire, to get better knowledge than what we already have, their mission is to see where resources are scarce and where they are abundant, the objective is to make us spend less on our seasonal expenses with imports, and make our caravans export the resources for the best price,this way we will have the budget and wisdom to reformulate our country, I along with my family will make us shine, and I promise, every country will see us as an example, and we will be prepared for anything, "
So, haspen said there is no province improvements for now, but I will still act as they are scholars getting better trade deals, but the truth is that The deal is to spend 2 wealth on my spymaster to have access to influence the events that happens in our neighbors, a merchant shows up? convince him to come to our country, peasant revolt being planed, we can either support it or accuse them to their masters, they plan to attack me? opportunity to sabotage them
After reading Ômedinae's letter, Ms. Tribard give an straight answer passing as her brother, the chancellor, the letter is simple with a calligraphy that looks it was written in a hurry, as someone that don't want to spend much time
"My lady, king of Cacameburg, I expected to be people already vying for the position of emperor, but doing so in a public note before the death or sickness of the current emperor might not be well accepted, I hope you succeed but let give thou two warnings, one is to be careful with your words, people will use every single word against you, the other is that there isn't in the council a single republic, people will start to not trust an empire-republic that don't accept republicans as their councilman, I am not asking to vote on me, as I don't want to raise attention from warlords to my province, but keep my advice, Chancellor D. Tribard"
The letter is put inside a book entitled "The Art of Speech", it's not a new book, its full of notes, hard to tell if it's just eccentric behavior, if the chancellor wanted to give a book for your empowerment, if there is a hidden message in it or if he just wanted to get rid of a book.
