Voted best in category in the Users' Choice awards.
I mean we are onviously not going to organize the actions like in standard CK2. But we are going to have a advisor for each stat with maybe a bit of customization. Both Belegar and Van Hall has councils like that.
the sothern gods, sigmar and the lady mostly.
e.g every major policy that's made an attempt at taking it all.

Please dont make this kind of joke.
Please don't try and create drama when it was obvious that they meant nothing by it.

A slight increase of the security of the currently only heir is a big deal, and one that a lot of her peers and high level friends will understand the value of, and it is only really a 10 to 20 year commitment. Not to mention the tutor role is also important, and having a wizard in that role is a big deal.
If Sylvania stays a quagmire for a generation, it is not a big deal the way the difference between a good and bad heir to the throne.
That said, if you care about what other people think, ambassador at large is something that just about all in world opinions would approve of due to her near unique connection and level of respect there (perhaps the best since Sigmar), but it has not really captured the threads imagination.

Those kinds of jokes provide no benefit. Trans people like us hate seeing them, even if the people making them have no ill intention. Chlof asking for the joke to not be used is in no way creating drama.
The current only heir of what? Reikland? Because it is surely not the Empire. If The Emperor and the Prince both die tomorrow the electors will be fine electing someone else.

This entire quest has been going for about 16 years, and we've only been in Belegar's employ for 7.
10 to 20 years is a long time.

I may have missed the conversation about it, but why isn't Naggarythe a more popular choice here?
It's only a 3ish month commitment (let's say 4 with travel), and it potentially gives us contacts that can help with basically all other missions (especially the runestone research if cards are played correctly), almost certainly a sizable jump in our combat skills, and plenty of research paper material. What's not to love?
We can go do that, and then come back to pick one of these multi-year options later. They might not all still be available, but the runestone research certainly will be, and that seems to be the clear favorite atm.

Because this vote is for about what to get more information about, not what to actually do, and we already have all information we're going to get about naggarythe. It's one of the ones only in the vote for reference purposes, as stated in the OOC italices in the update itself.

The fact that it's a 10-20 year commitment is another reason why I'm leery of it, not a point in its favor. Mathilde is kinda in the prime of her life. I also think the value of pacifying Sylvania is a lot higher than you give it credit for, and I definitely think that Mathilde's involvement would contribute far more to that than Mandred, who has a lot of bodyguards and tutors already.
Either way, I'm glad we will probably be getting the finer details on both options, which should give a clearer idea of all of these topics in case I'm not reading it correctly.
We are seven votes off from hitting 400. Come on guys, we can do it.
And I'm pretty sure that Karl-Franz had cousins, analogies of whom probably exist here that would be heirs to the Reikland.

So, having done a hypothetical an an option I don't dislike I thought I would do one on my preferred option too, though this time with more questions. Which wizards do you guys think we can hire on to the Waystone Project? For that matter which do we want? Someone like Hubert does not seem that interested in lore and esoterica.
Panoramia springs to mind of course but she already has a day job. Maybe we can keep Max and Johann, though to tell the truth I have more hopes for the former over the latter. Adela has an interest in engineering which we can hardly assuage with this. Gretel maybe... I mean she is not what I would call a scholar. I think we may need to hire on new wizards for a new project and let the ducklings fly their own way.

"I want to teach and protect my godson." is a completely reasonable motivation and task for Mathilde to pursue. I certainly can't imagine any of our friends having a problem with it. I cannot stress enough how prestiegous 'imperial tutor' is as a job title either. Everyone would be very understanding, even supportive, of that choice.
(that said its actually near the bottom of my own preferences)
