You decide to keep it in the royal vault. Maybe it will cure your people of ill, maybe it will simply look lovely on the shelf - but you're keeping it.
1216 AD, Late Winter
The Treasurer drones about how the Scaling Tax has brought less profits to the Treasury than expected; it seems that your craftsmen aren't particularily wealthy and after the recent incident there's not much of aristocracy to pay extra taxation.
Still, money is money. Maybe in future decades this will change.
1216 AD, End of the Year
How does the Treasury fare after this year? The leaves sold nicely, the dig paid off, but the expenses aren't small and the mines in the north aren't working yet. On other hand, first profits from Scaling Tax were made...
You snap from your musings as the door creaks - as expected of him, the Advisor walks in, his hands occupied by Scrolls of Kingdom Status.

"Your Majesty, the state of affairs of the Empire are as follows; the authority of the throne has been strengthened by prosperity of the land and influence of the council and the Crown."
"As expected, the dig, the trade of horses and Scaling Tax brought some nice money. The overseers of Vaults also report that initial profits from their operations were good. Coupled with wealth gained from the Meric's tomb, our Treasury has moderate reserves of cash at the moment."
"The Marshal proudly reports that the Imperial Army is at its maximum capacity and efficiency. He and his commanders both clamor for the prowess and strength of Methiant to be tested! It's been ages since last war for profit, they say, and whilst they love their usual guard duties and protection of internal stability in the Empire, the men have this itch that can be only scratched by properly organized battling outside Methiantese borders."
A) "But Methiant is friend to all living beings! We can't go to war simply because our soldiers are bored!"
B) "A perfect opportunity to settle some family grudges with the Kingdom of Eldrican!"
C) "Emperor Mahjar Sim is old and probably does not expect an attack! Time to grab some Gubtan riches!"
D) "Lametania has too close ties to the south, and we ought to change that!"
E) "We will ride against Kingdom of Helliste, as to expand north and seize the coastline!"
F) "Kingdom of Rucus seems to be a link between south and north - let's break that link apart!"
"Besides matters of war, there's also matters of Imperial administration. Do you wish to issue an Edict?"
A) "Sure, I'm always eager to stamp some papers!"
B) "Nah, I think I've issued everything I wanted so far."
