Opening

The grand banquet hall of the mansion is filled with anticipation as stewards and lords gather, awaiting the arrival of their liege. A hushed murmur sweeps through the room as the liege enters, offering gratitude to the lords and acknowledgment to the stewards. The liege's voice resonates through the hall as an announcement is made - a test of administrative prowess and leadership.

As you assess your competition, you recognize some of the lords, renowned for their battlefield exploits. Their swords may have sung in valor, but you wonder about their aptitude for management. With a confident resolve, you choose to steward over a rough estate.

Rough Estate

The rugged terrain presents a stark contrast to the refined banquet hall. Rocky outcrops, dense forests, and untamed wilderness stretch as far as the eye can see. It's a challenging landscape, and as you journey to your new domain, you prepare yourself for the trials that lie ahead. The residents of your rough estate await your arrival with a mix of hope and uncertainty.

Guild Connection

Upon your arrival at the rough estate, your astute management skills come into play. Swiftly, you organize the local merchants and orchestrate a pivotal meeting between them and the members of the influential merchant guild you brought along. The negotiations are extensive, but both sides ultimately find common ground.

As a result of your efforts, a mutually beneficial trade agreement is established. The peasants residing in your estate now gain access to an array of goods that the estate itself cannot produce, enriching their lives and bolstering their satisfaction. In return, your allies from the guild secure a consistent and reliable source of essential materials for their ventures.

What distinguishes this arrangement is your personal connection with the guild members. Thanks to your influence, they abstain from manipulating prices or exploiting the situation. This Guild Connection proves to be a testament to your skillful stewardship, strengthening both your estate and your ties with the influential merchant guild.

Year 1

📝Increasing Manufacturing Production

In your inaugural year, you make a resolute decision to augment the manufacturing output of your estate. You issue orders to the craftsmen and artisans, directing them to expand their workforce to boost production. Although they express concerns about finding markets for the increased volume of goods, they reluctantly comply with your directive and commence the training of new apprentices. It won't be long before you witness a noticeable increase in the production of goods emanating from your workshops.

📝Made an Agreement with a D'Haran Merchant

You made a deal with a D'Haran Merchant to exchange all your livestock for an influx of additional craftsmen, thus boosting manufacturing production. This choice caused consternation among the peasants who relied on their livestock, yet it brought satisfaction to the merchants who acquired a surplus of goods for trade.

📝Aligned with the D'Haran Merchant Guild

By aligning with the D'Haran Merchant Guild and taking decisive action against the arsonists, you gained the trust and support of D'Hara. Your unwavering stance against violence and lawlessness within the estate was made clear. While the commoners settled down for the time being, their resentment and anger toward D'Hara continued to fester.

📝Cooperated with the D'Harans to Develop the Iron Mine

Assisted by the D'Harans, the iron mine prospers, significantly increasing raw material production. Yet, the D'Harans have assumed control, displacing local workers and sparking dissatisfaction. While they offer coins, their influence persists. You confront a pivotal choice: uphold autonomy or yield to their dominance.

📝💱Established a Trade Route and Accepted Lux Nova(with Lexis)

You welcomed newcomers from Lexis' estate for increased trade and a Lux Nova temple but triggered conflict with the D'Haran Merchant Guild. They built their own temple, deepening religious divides, and D'Haran workers joined in, leading to a divided estate with simmering religious tensions and potential future challenges.

Year 2

📝Hired Many Mercenaries

In your second year, you've opted to bolster your defenses by recruiting a substantial force of well-equipped mercenaries, fortifying your estate with capable soldiers.

📝Retention Specialist Event: Repurchased Your Livestock Sector

You accept the retention specialist's offer to repurchase your livestock businesses for 1 gold, bringing happiness to the affected peasants. The specialist swiftly starts negotiations to regain your raw material production businesses from the D'Haran merchants, using your guild connection to your advantage. For 2 gold, you will retake control of these businesses, and the D'Haran merchants will permanently leave your estate once the deal is finalized.

📝Clashed with the D'Haran Merchants

After a calculated campaign to incite the peasants against the D'Harans, violence escalates. Enraged peasants, influenced by your rhetoric, attack the D'Harans, who had prepared for such a situation with armed soldiers. This results in a chaotic confrontation, casualties, and property damage.

Efforts to negotiate lower prices for your raw material businesses fail, leading the D'Harans to set fire to those assets, causing significant destruction. You salvage 2 gold worth of items from their abandoned goods, but your raw materials sector is severely damaged.

The estate is in turmoil, with tensions among the populace, the D'Harans' departure, and the task of rebuilding. Despite losses, relief washes over the estate as foreign influence recedes.

However, there's concern about possible D'Haran retaliation due to financial losses and damage to their reputation. The aftermath remains uncertain, and your ability to navigate it will shape the estate's future.
