Gold and Treachery - A Trade Magnate Quest
- Thread starter Azel
- Start date
- Original
We are already significantly in her debt, let's not make it so she can make the leash any tighter.
What leash are we talking about?
At a fairly decent banquet, the young head of a noble house, whose history goes back centuries, agreed with the head of a foreign family that he would marry the head's adopted (!) Daughter. And according to the old traditions, he will receive a given gold + a galley + a trade contract. The head of a foreign house receives connections in the city and prestige, for kinship with a noble house.
And where did you find the leash here? All that she gave us is now ours. If she tries to return it, her reputation will be destroyed.
And why would she do that? We are FAMILY is not a simple sound.
If we need help, she is obliged to provide it, or to do everything possible, if she needs help, we are obliged to do our best.

[X] Alert the city watch to have him apprehended. (Very likely to apprehend him and the ship. Will very likely cause a scandal.)
Yeah, no. We need to get him NOW, before he has a chance to squirrel away all the wealth he stole from us. My guess as to why the previous head was murdered was that he found out about the conspiracy, but was isolated enough he could be dealt with. This time the sakellarios knew our new family would help us out, unlike the fair weather friends our brother had.

"of you"? Something is missing.
"not"
"bazaars"
Dot-quotatuion marks-comma are used to separate direct speech from the following sentence instead of just comma-quotation marks. The proper grammar is:
If that if a matter of style, I can omit these kinds of reports.
"quite". quiet = soft, discreet; quite = somewhat, rather / totally
"to the thought"
"Lipern's"
[x] Let him flee and ask Ghaliya bint Nur bint Hasna for help. (???)
We knew we were going to be a junior partner in this relationship, and we should strive to be a useful one. We are more useful to her with both our reputation and money intact.

Even bad publicity can be turned into good if handled right.
As for how, my guess would be that we need to catch him first then punish him to the maximum extent of the law.
Which does raise an interesting question, is theft of this magnitude punishable by death and if so can we lobey to be the ones to administer it.

Whelp. Ah another Azel quest where everything is on fire.
Let's see if QM has too much faith in his voters. God's know I can't keep up his schemes in Viserys quest.
Glad to see maximum FUCK YOU option was chosen. Spite is totally a valid long term strategy right?

My gut feeling is half yes and half "it has to be more complicated than that right???"
Also wanted to comment on something (maybe too obvious to everyone else)
Hansa re Marrying Her Adopted Daughter: "Oh don't worry she's totes mc goats my daughter but no one will care and you'll get the perks with no drawbacks!" with some "those other Alumahi are too barbaric to get it, except you, you special man."
What the power brokers in the city actually think:
Not to mention our immediate money problems would've been in much better condition if we just took a loan instead...

But our house fled years ago no? The house was already weakened when it fled to the city. We're hated by the people there, but we have no political relevance to Panike at this point. Why bother expending the effort?
