Luria Nova/Events/Estate-Manager/The Arrival of Lexis' Merchants and the New Faith

A group of merchants, led by a Lux Nova priest, has made its way to your estate, hailing from Lexis' domain. They bring with them an intriguing proposition, one that carries both promises and challenges. The central idea revolves around establishing a trade route with your estate, while concurrently constructing a temple dedicated to Lux Nova within your lands.

The prospect of a Lux Nova temple excites the minor nobles of your estate, who have longed for such a place of worship. Their spirits lift at the thought of embracing the new faith, and they see this as a step towards modernization.

Conversely, the Fellish Merchant Guild, staunch adherents of the old faith, recoil in disdain at the arrival of the Lux Nova priest and his entourage. They hold deep reservations about the new faith and its influence on your estate, and they implore you to prevent it from taking root. In their fervor, they even offer to finance the arrival of an old faith priest, willing to pay you handsomely for your permission.

The situation presents a delicate balancing act. Embracing the trade route with Lexis' estate would undoubtedly lessen your reliance on the Fellish Merchant Guild, which could be seen as a move towards greater independence and economic diversity. However, it comes at the price of accepting the new faith of Lux Nova, a choice that would strain your relationship with the guild, whose influence within your estate would wane.
