GreyjoyBastard posted:What Diog said - as long as we don't mess around any further it's just an unfortunate show of emotion on our part. I'm heartened that you have enough faith in goons not to gently caress this part up in the following vote after this one. We're very Trumpian in that we aren't subtle AT ALL in our intentions and I wholeheartedly believe we'll issue a long statement about how this revolution is El's Will made manifest and we should overthrow oppressors.

The Snarls coin will be the new hammer and sickle icon of the working class. I think that's oddly charming.

The winning vote is currently to just haul rear end out of dodge with Uriah and Mokt's lament, so I don't think there's a big risk of giving a speech to people on it being El's will. It's probably more likely that we literally just tell the truth of what happens and Uriah laughs his rear end off the whole trip to the village with Mokt's Lament.

Or, you need to account for vote changes. Any volunteers? Spreadsheet count done, Bb wins pretty handily to my reading.

 You are Karum, son of Kanesh, and you wont have Telmun, son of Arrat (A Rat, more like!) win one over on you again! You leave your immaculate seat to the horror of your slaves and one of your wives (the other is busy with your children at home) and make for the upper stands where The Hero has seen fit to seat himself. On the way over, you cannot help but ponder the implications of his actions... and his repuation.  Your more trusted sources say he built his great city, not on the backs of slaves but on the backs of free laborers. That he has all but banned Slavery is not one, but two cities. One not even his own. That he has slain more mountain demons and rescued more people from their bondage then any other living being since Labarabas (alright, that last one is probably an exaggeration...) Did he know something you don't? You rack your brain for your somewhat shaky knowledge of the old tales, but remember no specific passage about the stature of Slaves in the Eyes of El. You know the basics of slavery, of course, having employed a number in your life, if a man cannot afford to pay his debts, he may sell himself or a member of his family into slavery for a number of years to cover the missing cost. You have heard tell that Slaves are to be freed once every fifty years, but what slave could hope to live for so long? And even if they did, having perhaps been a chamber-maid or what have you, what use to society could they be after that time has passed? No, better to go back to your old master then, and hope for a kind reception in your old age. With a warm bed in exchange for keeping the bed warm and perhaps walking the dog or other such menial tasks that even the eldest could be expected to perform without much issue? Try as you might, you cannot see any logical reason why a man should oppose slavery so. But as large as he is, as famous and as well... as incredibly large as he is now that you come closer, by the prophet that man is large, and much, much darker than the wood from which you sourced your prototype... will that affect sales? No, you'll just have to find figure out a way to turn the wood black without burning it. Wait, fire! That is the answer, you are sure of it. Soot from fires, mixed in with perhaps dark brown paint to make it darker still. Yes, now where were you? Oh right, the Hero. You have almost reached the stands now, and wouldn't you know it? A crowd has already formed around him, with slaves clamoring for his attention no doubt... how to play this?  "Make way for Karum, son of Kanesh!"You are vastly more important than everyone else here, so you make it known. The slaves will just have to wait their turn, you have important business to discuss!  "The next round is on me!"Ah, but what was that old saying? A wet throat opens the fiercest boarder? Something like that. You can handle a drink or two, and the Hero most certainly can, but the slaves? After they are inebriated, you shall have a much easier time of getting to the Hero, and if he likes slaves as much as you think then maybe he will look kinder upon you for sharing in your wealth!  "Ah, it looks like he is much too busy at the moment."Perhaps it would be wiser to take a seat and enjoy the play, perhaps with an ear or two pointed in The Heroes direction to figure out a better angle of attack, as it where?  "So very, very large...."Perhaps this was a mistake. Maybe my slaves have kept my old seat warm?

Nothing could go wrong by getting some of the slaves liquored up! What could possibly happen today where it would cause problems at all! Every day is a great day in Chorizon!

What is but a small deficit such as a couple of drinks for the Hero and his... friends, if this means we will be able to get him to sanction our dolls? Spend money, to earn more money. Hah, not even the son of A Rat would be able to compete with us now!

Hah, Jokes on you, Karum isn't blooded enough to understand the consequences of the steam engine. He successfully realizes how to build it but his barely blooded mind cannot conceive of why he would ever want it! The ultimate curse. edit - I love it when Diog shitposts in other people's CYOA side stories. It's like seeing Charley Brown finally get to kick the football.

Yep, all he has to do is hide that he's an rear end in a top hat and Enkidel would 100% sign this dude's first run Enkidolls. Maybe even etch his personal seal into a few. Seeing them from the other side would scratch the same spot that Lefkandi's pots depicting Uriah killing sea monsters or the balls of labaras action figures that are in Kavodel does. "ITS AN ACTION FIGURE OF ME HELL YES I WILL SIGN IT FOR YOU!"

Not sure how many other posters here also follow the webcomic Kill 6 Billion Demons. It's at the point where they're showcasing a character that could be future God King Enkidel.
