Like my mother did with Uncle Laurent and Merva. Talarist is only distantly related, and he's foreign. He doesn't count.

Who should inherit the duchy of Elath, then?

(Hmm. There are a few noble families with a lot of children, too many to inherit all the existing titles. Arisse, the Duchess of Lillah, has six children. The oldest three all have lands already. That's Kevan, the Earl of Io, Corisande, the Duchess of Mead, and Charmion, the Duchess-Consort of Kigal. That leaves three others who are all a few years older than me. he Duke and Duchess of Kigal have seven children, three around my age and four younger.)

(And they're all Arisse's grandchildren through their mother. So either way, it would be her line.)



Maybe the title of the thread should be Let's Play Crusader Kings 2: the Visual Novel.

Things we know about any of this poo poo:

quote:

The political disruption in Tombula in recent years has caused a disruption in their chocolate production, which is to the benefit of Nova, particularly the duchy of Kigal.

Lillah and Elath comprise almost the entire eastern border of the Kingdom of Nova.

Duchess Arisse’s previous husband was supposed to be a nasty piece of work. He may even have attacked Adair’s mother before her untimely death. He’s gone now, of course, but she (Duchess Arisse) is still the sort of woman who married a monster.
Kigal has chocolate & isn't ruled by someone who married a jackass(sure it's all connected to her, but this is less direct). Give the territory to the child of the duke of Kigal.

Haha. I didn't expect you to have us vote on this one, too. Let's go with Kigal since it doesn't border Elath, unlike Lillah.

JRPGs taught us that a random commoner can often turn out to be the hero of destiny or something dumb like that and will end up saving the world. Thus it only makes sense for us to pick one, that way the hero will be on our side!

Surely this couldn't even any other way.

Appointing an administrator means "find someone who's been keeping the duchy going while Adair was a kid living in Lillah or Ishtar, and make that person a noble", not "let's take Elath for ourselves".

a random commoner really can't do any worse than we have. I mean, we have to assume that they at least know how food and money work?

Elath, gently caress the noble whelps. They have enough without encroaching on these bloodstained lands... perhaps it was their murderous plot that we've imprisoned the grieving father over, not the wicked stepmother. Never Trust Nobles is what I'm saying here.

Pretty sure Talarist won't win, which is a shame. Those in charge of the land in our kingdom are our subjects by default, right? Nothing quite like subjugating the foreigners.

Tootin the Doom Flute has led the Kingdom of Ankist into a new age of illumination. Every morning, people wake up and open palm slam a woodwind instrument into their mouth. It is the Doom Flute and right then and there they start playing the notes. They play every note, and they play every note hard

Elath.

Also, seriously people this is just about the worst descision to ever make, that duchy's going to burn to the loving ground if we just give the title to some shmuck. Peasants have no idea how to run things! Most of them can't even read! Plus, we're going to end up getting him (and probably ourselves, for putting him there) assassinated.

Either that or daddy's going to veto our descision and lose respect for us because seriously how loving dumb are you
