That chapter flowed very well, DP.h

I'm happy for Oberyn's brood of bastards, and Sandor slotted right in. We need to Resurrect his sister ASAP, @Azel. She's an all to easily manipulated lever to use against Sandor, should the opposing team consider using her via their own Resurrection.

Next month is a bit busy, but we should manage to squeeze in a little trip to Clegane Keep.

Should take Oberyn along. And Tyene. And a bag. Just in case.

Also as an aside @Goldfish for crafting numbers, and @Azel because I don't recall, when we made a grain silo for SD, did we include Purification enchantment to make the grain keep indefinitely? And part of your plan involves storing huge amounts of grain long term for the Long Night, so I'm assuming you intended on building some more grain storage, and specifically the kind that could keep it fresh with no new harvests coming in.

I don't recall. It's something we can do, but not strictly necessary. Properly constructed and secured storage silos can keep grain from spoiling for a very long time. If there's one thing Planetos should have perfected to the limit of their technological capabilities by now, it's the long term storage and preservation of food.

I'd prefer taking the extra measure anyway, considering we're building up to the Long Night and we're going to need all of that grain fresh and vermin free.
 
Given our usual civil engineering budgets, I'm pretty sure we can just assume new grain silos with proper enchantments being build in the background.

To add to Duesal's point, a very real threat vector is someone trying to sabotage the grain in the silo. Sure it can be guarded, but guards can be subverted, and well... when have we ever not been paranoid enough to create another mechanism someone would have to bypass to do us lasting harm?

Even poisoned grain would purify a round later.

As for vermin, cats will do. Even commoners have to fear them. :V

We do have these small little raptors that we could train for that...

I will support anything and everything to exterminate rats, including making @Goldfish's avatar and unleashing them on the Imperium as a swarm.
 
So anyone else worth talking to? I believe we spoke with Mooton when he came along with the lads, Darry we carried here personally, and both of their loyalty is nearly as certain as Thy Name Be Brune.

So far the areas I see we need to shore up are some inside men in the Stormlands (Connington not being the best position for this admittedly but beggars can't be choosers and we have NO ONE in the area right now) and some more allies for Yohn's Alternative Lords Declarant.

Darkstar is basically grabbed on the same understanding that Arianne picked him up. He's deadly and pretty. We have managed to befriend worse.

Evidence in support of upgrading our Turtle Beam to a Cat Beam continues to increase.

Yes, part of the reason we use turtles is because they are slow and clumsy. Perfect for bagging and tagging.

The other part is our Valyrian heritage showing, making us literally incapable of not being offensive to the Rhoynish. Dornish don't count. :V
 
Did we ever send anyone to hunt down the polymorphed dear in the Stormlandsnor did we hear about somebody managing to catch it?
 
@Azel @Snowfire want to play to Darkstar's envy of his famous cousin to get him on our side and prevent any resentment leading to bad stuff?

He is very skilled and we can give him plenty of chances to rise in legend.

I was under the impression that the vote was in reaction to the knights who'd just jousted. We can do all of that when they show up and run the lists.

To be a bit more specific in how Tyene will handle 'Darkstar' - God that man is pretentious - his entire motivation is pretty clearly a desire for glory and to get out from the shadow of Ser Arthur. It shouldn't be difficult to get him to believe that'll happen in our service. I'd like to officially congratulate Ser Philip for making it this far and get the man some gear that isn't dogshit. The 'Ryene' could be useful, although I'd want to have us or a Companion check him out before doing anything. Bonifer and Benjicot are fine, Archibald will get over it, Belmore will either represent his family or he won't, and Forely will make a good example for rewarding the Legion later on.

@Crake have someone soothe Darkstar by essentially admitting we were expecting him to win, but luck is a fickle mistress. Also non-subtly dropping off hints that he should have noticed many of the most skilled in our service were already as well, or better, equiped than the prize winners. That being skilled, such as someone who came so far and only lost due back luck hint hint nudge nudge, is a sure way to prosper and be acknowledged in our service.

Also, talk with Foote, and personally heal his eye and lend him some unmarked plate.

And also Ser Bonnifer, he is wearing shitty half-plate, just bullshit it as it looking too worn for a joust. Which isn't wrong, jousting armor was actually ridiculously reinforced.

Nis let's just take a moment to imagine how chilling this was.
