Tab. A little worried about the way you worded the Funds requested. Should be 25 funds in total not 25 funds added. Just want to make sure we aren't asking more than we should.

We failed the Action with Rhaenyra last turn, I'd like to have it succeed this Turn, now that it is guaranteed.

Also, bummer we don't have the Option to at least write a Letter to Daemon or something.

I'll clarify that it's 25 total, and Silk seems good but I worry about using this autopass turn with it, I'll change it for the synergy but only if you sacrifice a cow, I know we have the +100 but I'd rather all our auspices be good enough to not get any nat1's.

Edit: wait a minute I just thought about this, why shouldn't we ask for 25 additional? I'm doing silk street because of synergy but asking for 25 total just brings the plan back down to its original asking price of 15, I changed it to 25 because of the autopass. Moneys stays the same.

Honestly? I think we should to recruit this turn. The autopass makes sure they'll be loyal to the City Watch. Then next turn get them equipped and trained by Harold Westerling who from this turn his bonus will increase. But if you think we should do recruit, equipped and Drill at the same time next turn? Wouldn't bother me and it makes sense. Just need to follow whatever plan we come up with to make things go smoothly.

Edit: Because asking for 25 funds added is above the the number we can ask for.

We already have +30 from omakes, plus whatever bonus we are unlocking this turn (which I am guessing it will be pretty big) and another +30 from master administration, and that is the bare minimum...

And then we will probably get a few more omake rewards, so I don't really think that we have to sacrifice any goats...

So I hope that I can convince you to go for the Street of Silk...

My condolences Fan.

But in all seriousness @mrsean22 to justify my asking price here, in no uncertain terms Viserys understands that to be effective we need more money, now that we've proven ourselves and our men he's offering us more. No more trial runs and limited action, now we can throw around enough cash to put a Ruby Cloak on every street (save fleabottom maybe) and run patrols were we can't. I didn't put 30 for risking the worst potential ire and because I'm banking on the toll action to bring us up to a full 30. (I'm think the action at least gives us 5, so math is 10+5+25=40 per turn, nice and even)

Potential opposition to giving us money comes from Hightower (he has beef with daemon and by extension us) and Strong (previously memed head treasurer and bean counter) and their respective cliques. However they'd be arguing against the most effective police action in Kingslanding, that doesn't involve pyromancy, and that isn't a good look politically. The king himself is cool with it so I'm asking, and I mean it's not like Targaryen blood madness will take hold and cause him to do something wildly irrational *wink wink*.

Should probably not ignore Fleabottom. That is where a good number of our recruits come from and its a important part of the City.

Lord Strong yeah but Otto seems to be supportive of Luciens actions so far. Which makes sense. Otto is invested in Hightower getting close with Kingslanding so obviously the city needs to be in good condition to make Otto's investment worth it.

With the dice everythings its possible, the harder thing would be if Viserys did something good for his family relationship when that happens we will need to worry for his sanity.

On another note my inspiration for writing the lyrics for a song based on Rhae rescuing Daemon died with the rhymming dificulty, does anyone have an ideia for an omake?

Hey, it is better to get 35 of budget than 25...

Besides that @Tabascoheath , have you thought about swapping the recruiting of guards (because honestly, without the drilling and equipment they wouldn´t be nearly as effective as our 6000) for Silk Road? That way we have unlocked the actions for dealing with the Scum of 3/5 of the city, and by the wording of the action it seems like we may want to get a good roll to find out all the shit that is happening here...

Aegor The Black and Larys The Clubfoot
  • Sidestory
    • Aegor The Black and Larys The Clubfoot

    Aegor The Black, son of Maelor Rivers and the rider of the Cannibal just arrived in the Gardens to keep the promise to himself on trying to befriend Larys Strong.

    From what Aegor could tell about Larys was he was pretty quiet and not a lot of friends. Rarely spoke unless it seemed important. So when Larys did speak people listened. Which made sense to Aegor. Larys was probably the smartest person Aegor knew.

    As for why Aegor was trying to befriend Larys Strong? It's because of how good the Strong family has been to Aegor family since he arrived in Kingslanding. Harwin teaching Aegor and his brothers how to fight. Lord Strong giving them a good education. The least Aegor could do is show his gratitude to the Strong family which includes Larys.

    Once Aegor arrived in the Gardens he saw Larys Strong inspecting some flowers. Which was a little weird but hey who is Aegor to judge on what interests people have?

    Aegor put on his best smile as he approached Larys Strong "There you are Larys. Been looking for you." Larys turned away from the flower to look at Aegor.

    "Everyone knows I like to come to the Gardens Aegor." Larys told Aegor while searching for something in Aegor eyes? But Larys didn't seem to find what he was looking for or did but didn't show it. Larys turned back to the flowers "These flowers aren't supposed to thrive here you know? "Larys told Aegor.

    Aegor raised a eyebrow before taking a few steps towards Larys to inspect the flowers himself. "Really?" Aegor wasn't sure why they were talking about flowers but was willing to hear what Larys has to say.

    "Yes. They are supposed to just be in Braavos. And yet here they are thriving in Kingslanding. Sometimes the world works in mysterious ways." Larys Strong said with a serious expression before turning back to Aegor. "May I ask why you wished to see me?" Larys asked with some curiosity in his voice.

    Aegor started to rub the back of his neck before smiling. "Just wanted to chat with you a little bit is all." Aegor said not saying the entire truth but the intent was there.

    Larys stared at him before speaking. "Then I would like to talk in a different location in the Gardens then." Larys spoke while started to walk in a certain direction so Aegor decided to follow.

    The walk was a little slow but the location wasn't far. Once they arrived they sat on a bench that seems to have a good number of people passing by every once in a while. Larys Strong motioned his head to a messenger passing by. "Who do you think he reports to?" Larys asked Aegor.

    Aegor confused on why Larys was asking him that but decided to play along and thought about it for a moment. "The King?" Aegor asked.

    Larys chuckled at the answer. "Technically that is correct but more who else do they report to." Larys Strong said seeing what answer Aegor would give now.

    Aegor started to think more carefully but the more he thought about it he couldn't come up with a answer. So Aegor decided to just answer honestly. "I don't know." Aegor answered.

    Larys seems to accept that answer. "At least you are honest. Many would of just kept guessing. The messenger report to Lord Otto the Hand of the King." Larys answer for Aegor.

    Aegor was confused by that. Why would he report to the Hand? So Aegor decided to speak his mind. "Why?" Aegor asked.

    "Because the Hand pays him on any information he might find useful." Larys said while searching around until he saw a servant girl passing by. "Who do you think she reports to?" Larys asked Aegor with some curiosity to see if he would get it right.

    Aegor looked at the servant girl for a few moments and started to think. Aegor decided to make a guess. "The Queen? " Aegor answered.

    Larys a little surprised Aegor got it right but didn't show it. "That's correct. The Queen got some ears from the charity efforts she does." Larys said while seeing a rat like man pass by them. "And him?" Larys asked.

    Aegor inspected the rat like man passing by but no matter how much Aegor thought about it he couldn't figure it out.

    Larys seeing that Aegor can't figure it out decided to give him the answer. "He reports to Prince Daemon." Aegor was surprised to hear that. Even when Prince Daemon wasn't in Kingslanding he was getting reports? "Though with Prince Daemon not in Kingslanding he reports to Prince Lucien currently. " Larys said to Aegor.

    Prince Lucien....Aegor heard about the riots and he couldn't just accept the solution Prince Lucien used to solve it. Could of at least spared the women and children but didn't. Aegor shook his head to get rid of those thoughts. "Why you telling me this?" Aegor asked Larys confused about why they were talking about this.

    "You came to talk with me as a way to show your gratitude to my family for looking after yours correct?" Sounded like a question but Aegor has the feeling Larys just knows. Aegor turned his head away sheepishly. That seemed like enough of a answer to Larys as he stood up. "Before I take my leave, as a courtesy let me give you two pieces of advice." Aegor turned his head to look at Larys and nodded.

    "The first piece of advice is this. Everyone has a motivation. Some are noble while some aren't. Just be careful on who you trust." Larys advised Aegor. Aegor knew Larys was smart but not this smart.

    Aegor remained silent processing the advice before nodding his head. "What is the second one?" Aegor asked?

    Larys smirked at that. "The second advice is Knowledge is a power of its own. You'd do well to remember that." Larys told Aegor before looking up to see how far the sun is located before turning to Aegor. "Think it's time to take my leave. You should explore the Gardens. Not many people just come to enjoy the flowers here." Larys said while heading in inside. Leaving Aegor to his thoughts.

    (And scene. Obviously Larys isn't doing this out of the goodness of his heart. I imagine Larys is in the middle or Starting to make his network and keeping his ear open. But if Aegor decided to come to to him? Obviously Larys isn't gonna let the opportunity slip by to make a decent impression on a dragon rider and his family. Hope you guys enjoy.)

    Fuck... We have a nice gesture with a child once in the tournament and now our fangirl club is officially open to all ages.

    Or it has to do with our mom taking care of the nursery of the Red Keep?

    This just in, our mom is the president of our secret Fanclub and is selling T-shirts with our face on them to help pay for the Ruby Cloaks expenses. Merch shops now have various "Lucien" and "Gull knight" themed Memorabilia, but SOMEHOW Lucien still hasn't noticed.
