"Urgent news my Queen," Tyso shouted as he stormed into the Throne Room.
"The Lords of Atlantis have sent you a petition, demanding that you arrest Dion of Koros (Lemmingtopias), our High Priest. They say that the High Priest is in open mockery of the Lords Rights and Powers. What will you do?"
Arrest the High-Priest or ignore the demands of the Lords?

"The Lords over reach!" Marcella roars as she rips up the petition. "My lady. I believe you have made the right choice, but we must realise that though you sit on the throne, you still lack the support of the powerful factions in this Kingdom. There are many who hope to return Kostakis Atlas to the throne, and..." Tyson approaches the Queen and whispers so only she and her Captain can hear. "...they send spies to Lemmingtopias to find him. This is your only chance to get ahead of them by sending your own spies to find his whereabouts." Send spies to find the old King or let him retire in peace? |

Your Power rises to 8, Your faith remains at 7, Your popularity remains at 5, your wealth lowers to 2."Alas my Queen! Bad news from Lemmingtopias. Our spies report that the situation on the ground is much more complex than we understood. Relocating the old King will take years instead of weeks." "Disappointing. What news of Lord Arder? I have not yet had the pleasure of seeing him bend the knee." "You are right my Queen, all the Lords of Atlantis have bent the knee except Arder. He has returned to his castle. I believe him to be bitter that he lost out on the throne to you, my Queen. You could let him be and work to win over his supporters. Or if you desire a more direct approach, you could instruct the other lords to lay seige to his Keep and deliver him to your fair city to bend the knee? I leave you and your wisdom to make the right choice." Attack Lord Arder or leave him be? |

From the darkest corner of the court, Daan DeSkaag seems to appear. She has a half smile on her lips, Gives a small salute and genuflects to Marcella, the new queen. And then disappears into the shadows again.
those who have encountered Daan before, murmur about the high praise and regard her actions demonstrate for the new Monarch.

An Emmissary from the Atlas Bank walks approaches Queen Marcella.
"Queen Marcella, you are in debt to the Bank of Atlas and have no means to repay. You no longer have the support of the Atlas Bank."
He nods to the Queensguard who draw their swords but the Captain of the Guard bellows "Sheave your swords" as he steps forward to restrain the emmissary.
You have been saved from the assassination attempt due to your immunity from the Bank faction.
Some time later after a break to recollect herself, the Queen is approached by her Minister.
"Your Majesty, you must send the emmissary back to the Bank. Though the state of his arrival is up to you."
Send the emmissary back to the bank alive or dead?

An uneasy look spreads across Tyso's face. "Your Majesty, it is a long standing custom that the Lord Chancellor of the Atlas Bank is not summoned to the Palace, butconducts business with the Crown through emissaries. If you wish to discuss our relationship with the Bank I could set up a meeting to negotiate?" |
