Elegance and Composure. Internal Affairs can come later once we've milked Yielding of its Royal Demeanor benefits.

I Said No posted:Oh christ, what a dumbass! She's actually right though: hospitals increase the spread of sickness. The benefits that hospitals provide aren't really medical so much as logistical. It's just easier for the doctors when the patients come to them instead of running around between different houses all the time. I thought we taught her some logistics though...

Let's do Elegance and Presence. Our forces took a hit defending our nation, but we need to educate ourselves about appearances before shaping the nation into a military superpower.

The key word being "some". This is all she knows about logistics: quote:10: You learn about the types and amounts of food required for an army on the march, and how long they will remain edible. In view that all this training is being provided to Elodie only after the death of the previous Queen (Elodie's mother), I surmise that the previous Queen had deliberately stunted Elodie's education and kept her utterly ignorant about everything, so as to avoid any competition for the throne from Elodie during her (the previous Queen's) lifetime.

Foreign Affairs seems like it's something we should know sooner, rather than later. x2 on that.

Composure, because that's the sort of skill we might want sooner rather than later, and Elegance.

Composure and Elegance. I snagged this game during the Valentine's Day sale, like 80% because of this LP. I've died three times (twice from the same event), won once (Although the reign of Sorceress-Queen Elodie was less bloodthirsty than I would've liked), and I keep preparing for the wrong things. Like my latest run was a brainiac run, nothing but intellectual skills, and I still managed to flub both the printing press and hospital checks. e: And now my princess is stuck on Cheerful. It's sort of creepy. Dareon fucked around with this message at 09:04 on Feb 17, 2014 |

Lunar Suite posted:Rapidly skipping and savescumming, I actually won for once! Knowledge is power. I don't think it counts as savescumming, unless sticking your fingers in a choose-your-own-adventure novel so you can choose-a-different-adventure is also cheating. (In which case a tiny middle-school-aged zonohedron has some words for you. If yelling at you goes badly she'll try staring at you disapprovingly instead! ) Besides, unless you have a save every week, it's hard to avoid "oh hey I can either go back ten weeks or I can go back two, but either way I need 50 in a skill that's at 0 right now or I die, so I can't go back only two weeks, but if I go back ten and I just focus on that skill, how do I keep from dying when I get back to two weeks ago?" (Which is why after I won once I spent three hours trying to pass a skill check that I'd failed right before winning, to see what would happen. For those who've gotten most of the endings, the one that took me three hours is the one that results in children making a portrait of you in the epilogue.)

Which sister? Corisande, the Duchess of Mead. Is she all right? She is unharmed. We caught the culprit in the kitchens before anyone could eat her foul spew. Well, what do you have to say for yourself? Condemned Woman: It's justice, it is! Them devils killed me brother, and broke me mam's heart. Lied to her, they did, when she went to see why he'd not come back. Said he'd gone for a soldier, when he never would! He weren't the only one neither. I waited ten years for my chance to get my own back. That's justice! You see? She's completely unrepentant! Hang her and be done with it. (Hmm. This might have something to do with the last Duke of Mead. He was involved in all sorts of scandals.) What should we do? Also, what Voting is closed.

There are a couple things I need to note about this update: 1) I put the skill check images above the dialogue they affect. Before, I put them below. Which way looks better? 2) Normally the game always shows Elodie in whatever outfit she wears. However, I can't get good quality mughshots of her with them on, so I use the default ones.

Execute her, since we're too terrible at everything to sweet-talk the Earl into accepting anything less. Since we're still Yielding, Elegance and Composure, then Sneak Out to boost our willfulness back up. EDIT: Putting the skill check first works better. Cause, effect.

For some reason the catsuit reminds me of the psychoanalytic cardiac-dampening sneaky stealth suit from New Vegas. Anyway, Ask the Earl about the situation so we can get more info. And continue reaping the yielding bonus with Elegance and composure

Agreeing that before the dialogue looks better. We have to ask about her story (because I haven't gotten that as an option - but if internal affairs of 80.4 was only enough for a partial success, I'm not surprised!) Let's study

Remember to check the second post whenever I introduce a new profile. I should have a version without the dialogue there. Also I thought you were going to use the screen shot test poster? Updating an older post means that people reading the earlier posts for the first time will get spoilers. Could shorten all your older posts to the "new things learned" too?

Let's ask because its only fair to hear her out. Perhaps we can execute her after story time Also if we remain yielding, study Composure and Elegance.

Ask the Earl of Io about her story. Hooray for options unlocked by skill checks. For classes, Elegance and Composure. Need to get these up so we can get more Presence.

Put her to work, then train our Elegance and our knowledge of Novan history, in the hopes of Elodie knowing something about the country she's ruling.

Look, we may not want to know what the Earl's been up to. Even asking might embarrass us or him, which could lead to problems down the road. Let's just imprison this person, so that we can release her if we learn more. Course, we'll probably forget about her tomorrow, but that's what happens when peasants insult royalty.
