Oh hey scratch that it lets up ask for way more than 40. But even 40's pretty unlikely to get granted so I'm gonna still go with the vote of 40 even though I think you all meant it by way of THE MAX.
Yeah Enerin kicked the bucket.
But at least she went out right after a blaze of glory. Also, fuck, no food.
So. It turns out our noble population is still
boring as fuck outside of who we have on the ring already. Also we have a whole one lady who's not Uraldan and she's also really old. I was gonna put things up for vote... but this selection really really isn't worth it.
Though, as much as I weirdly like Harsaltar, he was mostly there as the highest-Custom guy who wasn't our chief, but Iskalli's been taking the lawspeaker role anyway, and some other Chalana Arroyan got pretty good at Magic while we weren't looking!
So say hello to our new ring members!
Jonrik is our new proper Magic advisor, something we'd been lacking before. He's not
horrible at anything, though.
Janerra is mostly just here by virtue of god diversity, since Engarna's better at both Plants and Animals (we have a better Uraldan at Animals but the best is a really old Odaylan guy; I forget what our Plants nobles looked like but Engarna's in the top few there too and I genuinely feel is our best shot at vital god diversity while maintaining some sort of competence at both fields). She's also a pretty decent godtalker though.
Senior carls have been calculating the number of cows needed to sustain the clan, and concluded that you are headed for disaster. "If we don't get more cows, we will starve." The people can count just as well as anyone else, and know that the clan is headed for trouble. They have grown restive, and want to know what the clan ring is going to do about the situation.
1. "We will get cows by raiding." (This may kick off a raid
now, and it is Sea season.)
2. "We will sacrifice to Uralda."
3. "We will trade for more cows."
4. "You are wrong. We have enough cows."
5. "You must trust the ring; we will do what is right."
People should obey chosen leaders. (5)
Right after we cheer up the carls, we shoudl raid the Elkenvali clan. (1)
(I haven't cropped Jonrik yet) Uralda can make our cows more fertile, but she cannot make cows appear out of thin air. (5)
The most reliable way to get cows is to trade for them, but we have little to trade. (5)
(I haven't cropped Janerra yet) We shouldn't promise any one particular thing. That way, if the first thing we do fails, we can try something else without alarming them further. (5)
It will be very hard to convince them that we have neough cows. (not 4)
Bad King Urgrain's cow women told him that the herds were dwindling. Bad King Urgrain said, "Who needs cows, when you have the throne?"
