A Merchant from Afar
Possible children
A Merchant from Afar
Bang, bang, bang! A rabble of traders ferrying strange wares are knocking on {0}'s gates, demanding an audience. They tell you they hail from a far land, having traveled many leagues along one of your fabled trade routes. They claim to offer merchandise that will be profitable, but they also look rather haggard and exhausted. Do you agree to let them in?
Choices :
Dismiss
Foreigners carrying strange wares, ideas, and perhaps worse, are not welcome.
- Modifies the Geopolitical axis towards Homeland
Consent
We should welcome traders from far climes. The chance of profits is worth the risk of foulness.
- Modifies the Geopolitical axis towards World
- Chance of unexpected consequences
