If Crusader Kings taught me anything, it is that a) every single person in the world is planning to murder you and b) you can never get Intrigue high enough. Probably should learn a thing or two about Internal Affairs, too.

Assuming we'd have to justify ourselves, we probably don't have enough Court Manners or Public Speaking to get away with dancing with someone scandalous. We also don't seem what the gently caress with all of these nobles, so Let's Dance with Somebody Already Married to avoid sending any unfortunate signals.

As for classes,
