Session 5

The party decides to wait for the seasons to change, in the hope that the swamps will at least partly dry up, before hunting down the Wurm.

During this time, people discover that the King has been staying with his mistress, Lady Franza, and neglecting his responsibilities. Mnimi travels to Franza's castle and demands the King return to his duties or she would bring him back by force. Enraged, the King fights her but is drunk and she lands a blow and with her special ability removes all his memory of ever being the King. He thinks he is just a knight again. Now deemed unfit to rule, he remains with Franza and his wife, Queen Kerensa, becomes the sole ruler of the realm.

Meanwhile Ku-To wanders the land, and hears that Princess Andona has run away from Castle Keldon to avoid an arranged marriage to Sir Sibdion. A few days later he comes across a young woman, they travel together, he realizes she's the runaway princess, and they fall in love. She eventually returns to the castle to the joy of her mother the queen, challenges Sir Sibdion to trial by combat, and defeats him. So shamed, Sibdion withdrew from the betrothal, no longer worthy of her. The Queen is now anxious to find a suitable match for the princess, hopefully one that will grant them a beneficial alliance. Now the Queen owes both Ku-To and Mnimi each a favor.

All the while, Solomon also travels the realm, spending time with the common folk, befriending them, doctoring and helping them with ailments, collecting herbs, and learning the local customs. Slowly he begins to feel less like a stranger here.

At the beginning of Harvest Season, the party meets back up in Fenhurst on the night of the Feast of Stars, a night of revelry, contests, and hunting the Crowned Stag. They met up at the Horse and Plow again. Ku-To wears neater clothes and is clean-shaven now, Mnimi wears special garb denoting her a devotee of the Queen, and Solomon has a new pet snake. They sample some of Fenhurst's signature sourbread and mingle with the townfolk. Ku-To parties hard, drinking and dancing the night away. Solomon hangs out with local friends, who are expecting a good harvest this year but are worried that without its king the realm will appear weak to its neighbors.

A couple days later once Ku-To has recovered, they set out for the swamplands to the Northeast. That night after a full day's uneventful travel, they are kept awake by loud, grinding snoring sounds from underground and on the wind, punctuated by low laughing sounds.

The next day, they come across Cado and Zune, two Wurmshields arguing about who is more loyal. The party splits up, Mnimi and Solomon sneaking and staying hidden while Ku-To introduces himself and says he wants to pledge allegiance to the Wurm they serve. Zune brings him before the Wurm, who seems bored by his servitors but questions Ku-To deeply about his homeland and is engrossed in the stimulating conversation. Eventually he offers to bring a friend to tell the Wurm about snakes tomorrow.

That night the party discusses their options; could they use limeweed? They would need enough food to put it in. Could they get him to migrate North to devour the realm's enemies? Suddenly, the Wurm erupts from the ground and demands food and conversation. He is much more agitated than he was earlier!

FEATURED LOT: Majesty: For The Realm

What is it? - A light game where players select villagers from a lineup, Century: Spice Road-style. Add villagers to your town and score them in various ways and trigger their effects. Most points wins!

Why buy it? - From the designer of Splendor! Also, very cheap and very entertaining. A lot of folks prefer this over Middle Ages (the remake) since it's a little nicer and simpler. Setup is simple and there's solid player interaction.

Majesty for the Realm is indeed pretty good.

On knowing your limits
by [username=Bifford]Bifford[/username]

I had an email via my website for the first time in over a year. He asked if I would be free to do some editing work. I replied asking for more information - at the very least an elevator pitch, timeframe, word-count and expectations. I recieved these back the next day, though the information was the bare minimum needed.

Based on what the guy said I emailed back to politely decline, but I pointed him to a Discord server with a good number of editors on. I know that if I'd said yes I would have disappointed them and myself as I have too much on atm and taking on another thing would be silly.

This can very easily apply to anything in life. Know your limits and how to politely say no. Hopefully the asker won't think badly of you for declining, but will actually look on the fact you know your limits positively, and consider you again in future.
