B - The Sons of the Snake hold too strong a position right now and our vengeance can wait a little. If we ally with them and seriously weaken Sessanah's forces, the Sons will be emboldened and stop hiding in their swamp. Once the Sons and Sessanah are both too weak to resist us, we can send our army to invade restore order, have Sessanah meet with an unfortunate accident and feed Belmor to an anaconda.

We now have two suitors for marriage: Dannel of House Dullac and Vayden, an Eastern burgeois.

We can start arranging our marriage at any point. There will come a time soon where we won't be able to marry them anymore(we'll be warned before it happens), but there are two other marriage options later on. They are tied to specific circumstances, though. Vayden and Dulsen are the more "vanilla" choices, as they can affect other events before the game starts moving toward its final segment.

Anyway, the question I have here is: Should we marry one of them, or remain single for now?

 

[Erebus]

Marrying someone is (probably) not something we'll get to do more than once in this story. I think that we should remain single for now. Marriage could be a very useful way of contracting a powerful alliance when things start getting more serious, and the choices we've been offered so far are not worth sacrificing that option.

 

[baud]

talk about marrying for money. I'd be more interested if we weren't already mostly flush with cash.

Since there are more option than the two we've seen and we'll be warned before it expires, I'd say remain single for now

 

[Kz3r0]

Marry Vayden.

 

[Grimgravy]

remain single

Okay, we'll do that. On the meanwhile I'll recruit some troops in the background and read some books and scrolls to pass the time.

Okay boys, here we go. A new option appeared:

There's no going back after this.

We can still read some stuff, go on a hunt, do some things on the training grounds, etc.

Should we go meet Lord Noyedas and proceed with the plot at once or try to squeeze whatever events we still can before that?

 

[Erebus]

Is there any way we could improve our army before that ? If not, then let's go and meet him right now.

Also, would it be possible for a map to be added to the first post of the thread ? I don't always remember exactly where the different provinces are.
