But when I posted "Wow, I have never seen a treasury so low before!", MegaZeroX PMed me saying (more or less) "just wait!"), and so I promptly played ahead from where we were, checking the treasury every week, and then I just giggled to myself until we got to see the treasury in the thread.

Yeah, I'm not sure what drove us straight into the red but keep in mind that the available funds is just the excess of estimated cash inflows over estimated cash outflows. Anything that negatively affects the inflows -- such as a kraken sinking all the trade ships and eating all our excise tax agents -- will have the effect of reducing our available funds too, possibly to the point that we can't afford to pay our bills anymore.

What more do you need beyond us now looking prettier?  (In fact, this check is solely there to make you spend more money. Zonohedron is trying to sabotage the prudent financial goon policies).

I think it's just for fun; the commoner revolt would have replaced that event if we'd had one, so it can't be a last-chance "but I am so pretty!  " way of avoiding a riot.

ViggyNash posted:Why not. Not like I have a better suggestion. I'm pretty sure there's still money in there, but it's all earmarked for necessary expenditures. The numbers we get are our discretionary funds, which is presumably why owing the treasury money is an option at all. We probably just stole a handful of coins from road repair or something.

Let's try and not flub our coronation speech, so do Public Speaking to get our score up to 50. We'll probably trip over our own feet anyway, but let's finish up with Dancing.

Falconry x2 Magical Girl outfit Anyway, I am now picturing a country with a vastly oversized army and navy, a Queen with a full set of military and magical offensive skills and a country in need of booty. If we were slightly more cruel I'd have expected our neighbours to get nasty surprises in the near future with armies on their doorstep asking them to give up their lands and the likes...

Court Manners x2 just to be contrary. Also, so we can politely decline any other requests for money. Wear the tux if we still have a choice so that people will at least THINK we have money.

But a dowry is what the bride's family gives the groom's family because the bride is going to be supported by the groom, or because the bride and groom need to set up an independent household, so we don't need a dowry: we're the Queen (or at any rate, by the time we marry Talarist we will be) and do not need to have money given for our support.

So we're gonna get the dowry? I hope it includes money because we sorely need it.

Yeah, I forgot Elodie puts whole kingdom as her dowry, so I guess it'd be customary for her husband to foot the bill for all the celebrations, gifts, etc. Of course it could be completely alien tradition for makers of this game..

    At this time last year, you were celebrating your fourteenth birthday. You were in the school gardens, surrounded by your friends. A teacher brought you tea and cakes, while a wealthy merchant's son wove a crown of flowers for your head. It didn't matter so much that you were a princess then. Your title was something for the future. Many of your peers would be Duchesses or Earls or the like, someday, but not then. You were children. Your parents could not attend on the actual day, but they did send wonderful gifts, some for you, and some for you to share. And a week later, they came for a visit, and your mother took you with her through the countryside in a splendid carriage. It was the last time you would ever see her. You wonder if, wherever she is, she can see you now. You are fifteen years old, a legal adult. You have worked and studied and suffered and prepared, and now the time has come.   She calls upon the gods to deliver peace, wisdom, and prosperity to you, and through you, to all of Nova. And then she calls upon you, for your oath of rulership. Priestess of the First Circle: Will you guide and govern and protect your people to the best of your ability, according to law and custom?  I will.Priestess of the First Circle: Will you to the best of your power uphold the ideals of love, honor, justice, and mercy? I will.Priestess of the First Circle: Lords and Ladies assembled: I present to you your undoubted Queen, who has sworn you her loyalty. You who have come to give homage, will you do the same? One at a time, the head of each duchy approaches your throne and kneels to swear his or her service to you and your heirs. Priestess of the First Circle: People of Nova, I give you Elodie, daughter of Fidelia, your true sovereign. What say you all? People: LONG LIVE THE QUEEN! LONG LIVE THE QUEEN! LONG LIVE THE QUEEN!           So, what now? Well, we have quite a few options. We can: Option A: Start another goon run game from the beginning Option B: Go back and do something people wanted to see (such as the naval battle and sacrifice). Once this option is selected, I will go back and go through and do the requested sections on my own. Option C: Go through the checklist (AKA the achievements), select something that sounds interesting, and have me do it. If this option wins, we will have a secondary vote on what ones we want to do. The different achievements can be found here. Option D: Have me do an evil Elodie playthrough on my own. Option E: Have me do a smart, caring Elodie playthrough where she saves the day with the power of music! On my own. Option F: Choose a named character you want to die, and I will make it happen.

Option B, redo the battle using our navy. Preferably, unless there's any new important choices to make, have it go on auto-pilot from there.
