[King Zultan]

Being slightly more diplomatic would be nice.

Let them have some of the corpses of the dead and the offer of power in return for servitude.

Invite them to the feast your followers cook from the dead bodies.

Try to negotiate that they, collectively, get to keep a quarter of the dead bodies, unless they killed them themselves, in which case they only need to return a tenth of the ones they slay to us after taking part in our power.

Make it a soul pact, gaining access to their souls and corrupting them slightly that way.

A clear sign of the ravens being corrupted should be that they are able to open their third eye, physically and mentally. Their Children have a small chance of hatching as 3 eyed harpies.

+1 to all this.

Agreed. you growl, and then you make an offer of flesh and food and power, in exchange for the servitude of the crows. The spirit bobs its head, left and right. “A quarter minimum.” It says, and you agree, as you will be able to decide when they get more. “Then we shall make a pact, and celebrate with a feast.”

Your palm is slashed, and the bird’s wing, so that the pact will be forever binding. The blood, yours turgid and green, the crow’s black as night, and they mingle about each other. The words of the pact are spoken, and for a moment you feel as though you are wrapped in a painfully tight cloak, then the pressure vanishes and a smile stretches across your face. You feel a faint, distant sensation in the back of your mind – the crow spirit. “I shall gather my fellows.” It says briefly, and flies off, cawing loudly.

You turn back into the fortress and begin issuing commands, and the corpses are gathered, and slowly butchered. Many of the slaves vomit during the work, and Samana proposes they be forced to partake in the feast.

The feast is a wonderful, delicious affair, full of miserable sobs and loud caws. Crows spiral above your heads, darting down to grab yet another morsel of human flesh, while all around you slaves lay, eyes downcast, and followers boast and wrestle and sing your praises.

We should probably put the slaves that we have in the mines so that we can boost our bronze production

[NRDL]

Continue cultivating more wild beasts to serve us, while blessing our followers so that their children will be stronger and more loyal to us than their parents.

[Detoxicated]

Go on a wandering together with the seductress, to observe her abilities and find other spirit allies.

After the feast, the slaves, still horrified by their latest meal, are sent to work in the mines, digging out more metal to make weapons for your army. Meanwhile, worship strengthening you, you return that power to your followers, granting them strong and healthy children, all though some will be born deformed and mutated. It matters not to you. Those born from one who has knelt at your altar will be yours, body and soul forever. Unfortunately, it will take some time for these new followers to be born.

You decide to do some more recruiting. The crows are sent out in every direction to search for groups of animals, while the crow spirit stays on your shoulder to communicate what they see to you. Soon you have received word of a small army of leplenas, and you appear before another group of loyal servants, You also hear word of another group of tribesmen – a small delegation of a shaman, two warriors, and something the crow describes as fleshless flesh that shines in the sun.

Do we still have spirit hearts left? if yes, try implanting one in an unborn corrupted child and see what happens.

[Urist Mc Dwarf]

You have a few, but none are 100% corrupted.
