My people, to me! It is again the Sacred Time, and we relate the history of our people in keeping with the old traditions.

In the last two years we reacquired Voriof's Flute, leaving us owning all the treasures the Orlanthi of Dragon Pass brought with them from Heortland. We narrowly avoided losing a team of explorers to the minotaurs of Beast Valley when Elusu overrode Orstalor's suggestion of trickster magic and led a successful negotiation with the minotaurs. With clever words we convinced our carls to not listen to the Tarshite carl poacher. Elusu completed Chalana Arroy Heals the Scars, the last heroquest of the gods. At the close of last year we explored Prax, and again performed Ernalda Feeds the Tribe.

I'm willing to send off the cattle raid, but I think that might wreck the harvest. So, in my best Gygax impression, "Are you sure you want to do that?"

Chalana Arroy Heals the Scars has the option to boost the passive healing rate of your people as a reward.

>>29516312
Depends, do we have any useless nobles?
>>
>>29516382
A couple, yeah. Tessarin and Orstanor come to mind first, and we've got a bunch of older nobles who'll die naturally in a thread or two.

We've also got three Issarians. While I'd be delighted normally, we don't have any martial focused replacements except the Odaylans.

Maybe we should kick someone Cragspider's way to narrow down the options later, then.

There's a troll trading caravan on the edge of our tula. Raiding or trying to trade with it could earn us some goods, but it's still Sea season, so raiding will wreck the harvest.

Would the bonus from troll corpses offset any of the penalty from raiding? If not, just leave them alone.

We're at the slowest part of the game now. We've completed the prerequisites, and now we wait for the tumblers to line up to give us a win.

I'd suggest more noble fruitbaskets and a serious exploration campaign to grab the last treasures as something to do.

Wait, we're almost done?

>>29517158
The game has three main arcs: Establishing your clan, forming your tribe, and forming your kingdom. You signal your readiness to move on to the next arc by completing the heroquests. We've completed the necessary heroquests to move on to the last arc, so yeah, we're just about done.

Orstalor, I think you have the idea of death or freedom backwards...

That last option is "We make no promises to mere trollkin."
>>
>>29517512

This will not do. Schedule the Anmangarn for a double-raping.
>>
>>29517512

What is the meaning of this? We outnumber them two to one, have the home field advantage, have loads of experience, divine blessings and magic loot, yet 11 of our conscripts die anyway?

They must be a fierce enemy. We should consider beating them into submission with the help of the entire tribe.
>>
>>29517568
We also lost the battle, technically. Their fewer soldiers were willing to die to steal less than 20 hoofed animals, which is why they won.

We'll ask Maran Gor to ruin their next ten harvests in between raiding them.
>>
>>29517552
I should have said, this is an event, if one we've had before. Last time we freed the trollkin. The troll apocalypse event isn't possible, so we're going to ignore this warning either way.

It's Storm season, and we might have a problem. The problem is 200 more children than farmers. That's a massive resource drain, and I know what the cause is: Our shrine to Kero Fin, the one that provides Maternal Ward. Fewer babies are dying as babies, meaning that their numbers are starting to add up.

In a few years there COULD be a massive uptick of working adults, but it's a race to see whether that or the resource crash will hit first.

Also noteworthy is the fact that our farmers are underutilized, we could take on more farms and fields pretty easily. I think we'll want more pastures first, then see if the number of new adults increases in the next few years. If the gap gets much bigger, we take down the shrine and the problem solves itself.

That's a long and roundabout way of suggesting we adjust pastures for our first action. Do we want to run a heroquest this year? Kentvent's replacement could use more training.
