No option to send our military into Orc-World?

What do ya guys wanna conquer? Entire civilization of pebbles strewn across the place?


You decide to establish the House of Learning. This glorious place of knowledge will take a year to construct, of course sponsored by Crown's money.

1165 AD, Spring

The Spymaster arrives in your stud unannounced one day.

"Greetings, m'liege." He lifts his hat.

"I bring urgent report from my agents in the east. King Shapur of Parsia has lately became progressively sick and infirm. His son and heir, Dashir, is running the place in his stead, keeping people and neighbours content. However, Shapur's courtiers seem to be lending more ear to his second son, Manipur, who is known for his zealous tendencies and persecution of non-Eleven heathens. Given the Parsian's culture knack for assasinations, aggressivenes and succession wars, we might prevent rise of an enemy in the east if we take an action."

A) "Make up some proof that Manipur was going to invade us, so we can pre-empt with an invasion of our own!"
B) "Nah, we wait and see how this situation develops for now."
C) "Indeed. Try to get Dashir assassinated!"
D) "Indeed. Try to get Manipur assassinated!"

1) Moonthread cloaks still have +1 bonus, it's worth a shot.
2) Our backup plan is a full army + Cydwyl alliance.

[Iituem]

C, but the same logic as above.  Having the mad son on the throne is a better pretext for invasion.

You decide to pass on the opportunity.

1165 AD, Mid-Spring

Your tutors can't find any good quality about your eldest daughter, Eiri. Althought considering sickness and injury avoided her so far, one could say luck is smiling upon her.

Profits from fur trade have come to the Treasury, albeit they're not as high as in the first years.

A diplomatic report lands in your hands. King Tetan I of Eldrican is looking for a groom for his cousin Ruberta, who is eighteen currently and is of some beauty. Apaprently, this adventurous lady has always dreamt of marrying a foreigner, and King Tetan is looking to fulfill her little desire.

A) Not a match for anyone in my family, sorry.
B) Well, let's play matchmaker then!

You decide to try and bring the two nations closer!

Few days later, early in morning, you're busy reading a book about ancestry of the tyrants of Methiant, while your wife is breastfeeding little Deathan. The bed is warm and cozy and you don't feel like getting up just yet.

Suddenly your plans are slashed; because there is a loud soudn akin to a wheeze, then a flash of light and thunderous explosion. Your wife screams and Deathan starts to cry, and courtiers and guards begin to run down the palace's corridors as you peek outside.

Few hours later, your guards come back with a bundle of shiny, pitch black nuggets in a bag.

"Sky Iron, my liege! We found a crater in the farmlands north of the capital. A heavenly rock smashed right into a field of turnips." You know what Sky Iron is; rumored to be magical, it is most often used to create weapons of war or items of holy or royal significance. The Dwarves are known tfor refining it into artifacts, too.

A) Sell the Sky Iron ore, it will surely fetch a good price on the market.
B) Commission some artisans to create jewelry for the Imperial family out of the metal.
C) Send a messenger to the dwarves, offering them to work the ore for you.
