Any which remain unmarried will be used by the Maradysh as heroes for their civ.
Arthryn forbid our subordinates get to keep their own heroes!

The People already practice polygamy so I'm not against a royal harem. The succession is the main issue.
Firstborn is still firstborn, so there probably won't be any problems unless the twins literally give birth at the same time.

Which admittedly is not impossible in a fantasy-verse.
 
It will be in this case.
... Is that because of game mechanics(/author fiat) does not allow for simulating the low odds of two people being born at the same time? Or is it because Wyrn will make sure that everyone will 'know' that one of the heirs was born first?

Because strictly speaking there is nothing making that event impossible, not even in real life.

... Then why exactly is this even something we need to vote on? What's the catch..?
A: Dragging heroes away from our subordinates means that they will be weaker than they would be otherwise.
B: Tying all the important people to the royal family will strengthen it, and therefore the monarchy.
C: Omegahugger does not ship it and will therefore pout.

Yes, I realise that all three of these can also be considered reasons to do it depending on your priorities.
 
[X] [Mega] Upgrade the Blessing of Arthryn.

Concerned about the debate slowing down the temple, the Cadlon decided to see what the problem was. Upon hearing about the three factions and their proposed suggestions, Cadlon Edwyn asked why they could do all three?

For curiosities sake, what did each of the 3 do. We got 2 value upgrades, which can ne tied to the relative choices somewhat easily, but the third is unclear.

Is Arthryn going to end up with a domain over Earth? I mean she's the mother goddess and already controls stone apparently. She's basically a better version of Gaia.

Because some people might be against marrying them to the eldest son of the current heir. You already got people in the thread worried that it might increase the power of the royal family or they want the Maradysh to keep their own heroes to help them consolidate their holdings.

As for the catch, I won't say what it is if there is one at all. I just didn't want people to vote under the mistaken impression that polygamy isn't something that happens on a regular basis.

It feels to much like a dick move by the QM to me if the players have to deal with that kind of nonsense.

The value upgrades and the grand temple effects were determined by a mixture of the winning votes with all three influencing each outcome to different degrees. It wasn't one option caused this and another option caused that.

Stone and Earth already and potentially the sea as well.
 
I already don't want to strengthen the monarchy, I defintely don't want to steal both of our ally's heroes, then they'll just resent us.

Can we please start putting up some wall around the settlements we already have before we start making new ones. Weve had walls for so long yet only one town has them.

Also what happened to lowlander chaos goddess is she dead?

Zaranna is not dead.

Do note that it is not going to be seen as stealing in universe. Just three people getting married, happens all the time in Arthwyd.

If anything, the Maradysh will be happy that some of their people got married into the royal family, especially the person who will be the heir once the current heir is Cadlon.
 
I hear that this quest has a Discord. Went there, but can't find the part where the dice throws are shown (and the immediate 'wtf's for them).

The rolls were made shortly after I closed the vote if I remember correctly and were definitely made after I closed the vote.

Also, it is technically the old PoC discord that has been repurposed for this quest.
