Aye, but I didn't notice Vortix rolled. So sorry?
Aye, but I didn't notice Vortix rolled. So sorry?
yes, please roll.

The Lost have solidified themselves within Tessen as a place where the lowest can still seek redemption and penance for crimes too heavy on their souls. But, horrifyingly, there is no week without a suicide, the latest from one of the Rose survivors, a twelve-year-old orphan who was born within the Compound.

Not really effective way to atone if you kill yourself before paying back your wrong doings
Just an idea
If the law itself is biased then going after the judge will do nothing. We need to go higher and start lobbying.

Slaanesh cult indeed.Tessen Guards Strike Heavy Blow Against The Rose Of Flesh - The Tessen Speaker
"It is the raid of the century," said across many a paper and among most social gatherings, and with good reason. For a day ago, over a hundred Guards entered a previously hidden Compound in Ularn, wiping out any pocket of brief resistance with extreme prejudice and no restraint, seeking prisoners as well as excuses to strike against the single most despised cult of the Empire: The Rose Of Flesh! Current tallies are still being reported, but the latest counting has revealed no less than 176 cultists in total, with 103 able to stand trial as the remainder had died within the brief and violent struggle to restrain them. Yet, while the law rejoices and prepares to throw every single page of the book they can find at the treacherous nobles, wealthy merchants, insane lunatics, slavers, rapists, torturers, criminals, fanatics, and more, another grisly work begins. 49 Survivors, 23 of which are Mutated, were liberated from the dungeons and cages within the Compound, another 201 corpses currently tallied in various states of dismemberment. At least three survivors were born and raised within the Compound, one twelve-year, seven-year, and three-year-old girl, boy, and girl, respectively.

Uhhh, what are Ordinance #326b-S and #14-VV7? We could get involved but it heavily depends on what's actually going on.The Law Is Upheld, But At What Cost - The Truthful Observers.
"Denied," said the honorable High-Judge B'il, slamming his gavel onto the podium within a deafening silence in the courtroom, one girl within crying at the word. With this single word, Ordinance #326b-S and #14-VV7 have been chained around the Survivors, preventing them from getting the needed escape and closure they deserve. Several human-rights groups both within the Region and without having already declared their intention to challenge High-Judge'S B'il's ruling, though few believe they will be able to achieve anything. Having been created with future overturning in mind, Ordinance #326b-S and #14-VV7 will need at least the implicit petitioning from Lady Tessen to the Emperor, with her House united behind her, and either House Mirn or Ularn too. For those 25 innocent lives, that may as well be the same as asking them to walk to Mes and back.

Ugh, and now I'm tempted to use Grease The Wheels on Illness Of The Mind to finish it next Turn. Just so we can do something. We should have enough Goodwill.One Nightmare Ends, Another Is Upheld - Rags, Rumors, And Rants
The Rose of Flesh cult is one of the vilest abominations ever to plague our fair nation, not least because they willingly delve into their depravity and degeneracy. Few are the crimes that haven't been committed in their abhorrent search for pleasures and sensations; fewer are those who will survive being subjected to them. Yet, over a month ago, 49 such survivors were rescued from their clutches, with 47 surviving to now. And of those 47, 22 face a nightmare greater than the others for the crime of being born. Already having had their bodily autonomy ripped away from their hands, our fair nation afforded only the 25 humans the care and help needed to not take the plunge onto the sword. But the mutated, as young as twelve? They were tossed to the street, told to go scram until they were called, then promptly forgotten again when the cruel decision came, and the state torched their future with the help of the sadistic preparations of the Rose Cultists. Marginalized, outcasts among outcasts, lost and unloved, they will not survive the season, either by the hands of others, their own, or of fate.

Preparations for the Behemoth hunt? Or do they expect to lose so many that they already train the replacements?The Military started several training exercises to ensure no rust settles into existing units and provide experience to fresh, unbloodied recruits.
A bit surprising the Criminals went that far. We are in neutral relations with them and flat out killing people that work for us opens them up to the same treatment. Especially with the nearly open fights that happen around the 'Consensual'.The Criminal Organizations (Eleven corpses were found within various cities, their eyes gouged out, tongues severed, and fingers removed. Two of those were your handlers for the other killed spies within the Criminal Organizations.)[Spy Network -1 Level]
Yeah, we really have to finish Illness Of The Mind.The Lost have solidified themselves within Tessen as a place where the lowest can still seek redemption and penance for crimes too heavy on their souls.

You'll get to know in detail what these two babies do, and how the Rose of Flesh manipulated them to their purposes.Uhhh, what are Ordinance #326b-S and #14-VV7? We could get involved but it heavily depends on what's actually going on.
As long as you have the book, you gain +10% to the price of any Airship design after it is rolled. Once you have the laboratory, you can detach that bonus and make it permanent.@HeroCooky ragardinh the unburnable one, is it like any other artefact or is the bonus permanent?
We never had an artefact give a percentage bonus before.
Ooooh
If my notes are right, you'll be able to modify/make permanent these current boni with Learning Actions (unlocking addition actions afterwards):
