Just give our blessing, the kingdom can't pay for weddings given its current status.

Finance the inn, developing the kingdom is good.

Pardon the prisoner, it was only a minor crime, and the king is kind.

Upgrade: Fix Pantry Roof, get rid of a drain on the kingdom's resources.

Upgrade: Fix Market Stall, gain more resources over time.

Allow Asalia to train, she seemed interested in it, the King can spend some time with her in the future, and she can defend herself if she continues to sneak out of the castle. Win-win!

Send Stan east, how did they even get around the castle to begin with? We don't want them to attack us from the back when we engage the other two camps. (Vaguely recalling that they came from the mountains to the west?)

Demand 3 gold, he shouldn't have bragged about how important it is. Plus, we probably paid for the majority of the costs earlier.

Give 5 supplies, it's not like they can eat the gold, they'd have to go buy food anyways. We have a lot of things requiring gold right now (the loan, the wedding) and not as much for supplies.

Hire the band so that they can start practicing.

Do not buy the flowers yet, we should wait until the last minute, or they'll wilt and we'll look like idiots. This also gives us a chance to save up some money in the treasury.

Send Stan to the west post, the village has already been raided, so let's try and prevent more problems by going after the posts. The west one looks like it's closer to the road, so we should check that one first.

Use the pigeon to call Talys and have him meet with the "miracle medicine" vendor. I personally have my doubts about its usefulness, but Talys can decide if he wants to have his wife try it or not.

If it does turn out to be real, however, we can potentially learn how to make it ourselves and save the money in the long run. Because we do not know if the cure-all is real or not, I would hold off on sending any pigeons this week. No need to antagonize our allies.

Refuse the inn's gold, they weren't arrogant about it like the other guy. Also, more happiness means more taxes.

Give the drunk 1 gold, he's probably going to buy booze rather than boots, but we can afford it and hopefully it'll raise happiness?

Give the village supplies, they need the help and it's not like we have a constant drain on supplies.

Imprison the conman and send a pigeon for Ada so that she can confirm if it is right guy.

So you dangle a cat over the castle wall, held aloft by a long rope. You lower it into the surrounding moat and pull in any fish it manages to hold onto. You have to be quick, so it doesn't eat the fish before you bring it up. Also, too heavy a fish, and the rope will break. Once you have secured the fish, you have the option to spend on lavish costumes to dress up the fish in to win some kind of popularity contest.

Also the QTE's to avoid getting mauled by the cat.

Let's give Stan the letter and have him investigate.

Send the peasant on their way, they didn't seem that concerned, and 7 gold is a lot of money (enough to build an inn!).

Invite Lurs, hopefully we can get an alliance with both him and Etton.

Build the training grounds and start training up our own army.

Imprison Pietro for everybody's safety. Tell him we have a safe place for him to hide. :) We can always release him if we need the cell for something else.

Provide the village with supplies, it's not like we have anything else requiring them at the moment.

Invite Etton, and see what he has to say about the accusations from Lurs.

Hold off on another marriage, especially with how the first one turned out.

Send Stan to the village to investigate, this is the second one that has been raided. Let's see if he can figure out what's going on, and prevent/stop a 3rd village raid.

Hold off on further improvements for now, there isn't really anything that needs to be done right now. We have too many places to visit already, so we don't need the stables. The Carnival would be great for happiness, but we ought to save the money in case something comes up in the future. We can prepare the general once we're ready for war.

Invite Noaksey, they have the most troops to offer.

Invite Sir Friderick, hopefully he doesn't have anything ridiculous that he wants us to do.

Laugh them out of court. We'd all like gold from the King to improve our houses, but at least we know better than to ask in court!

Give them 12 gold to look for outside help with the tree situation. Gods and cults are not to be ignored.

Throw the merchant into the dungeon. "Winners don't do drugs(tm)."

Maybe we can have Asalia train using The STABBER instead of the sword.

It's too bad we can't just send some of the army soldiers/recruits to solve the Inn problem while keeping Stan for other tasks.

Invite Noaksey, and see what his "story" is. :)

Give 28 gold to hire guards, it's expensive, but we need Stan for other things. Hopefully the 3 gold return will increase after the crisis is solved.
Tell him to come back in a few weeks, we're busy trying to solve a murder mystery right now!

Give 1 gold to Cedani The STABBER, as an :airquote: investment :airquote:.

Tell Noaksey about the "monster", if he's made up stories about the dragons and such, his troops might just be stories too.

Kick the beggar out again, and I suppose we'll see what story he comes up with next time. Maybe he's related to Noaksey?

Haggle the price down to 16 coins, in the worst case The STABBER gets a new friend.

Is hidden hut the "western woods" mentioned in the note? Assuming that it is, then:

Send Alena to the hidden hut.

Side with Friderick, Noaksey already admitted to making up stories, who knows if his accusations are made up as well?

Give supplies to the attacked village, we aren't monsters.

Have Alena study the phial, we need to make progress on the murder.
Lurs can keep trading with the Radovians while he helps us with troops.
Do nothing about Babushka, she hasn't harmed anyone yet.
Although I would like to help with the shrine, no gold for the shrine, we need to keep some reserves to prepare Stan and/or Alena to help with the upcoming battle.

Mechanics questions:

Is there any deadline for the "Prepare General" and "Prepare Witch" upgrades besides "before the battle with the Radovians starts"?

Since we are now allied with Sir Friderick, do we automatically ally with Jovan and have access to his troops as well, or do we have to invite him first to let him know?

Accept the meal situation, the cook didn't know, and Cedani didn't get too upset (thanks to the story about letting him go free). Will we all gain the rooster's powers after eating the soup?

Send Alena to help, hopefully she doesn't disappear as well!

Give her 23 gold to hire a healer, it would be good to know if the addiction is something that can be healed. Perhaps we'll need to help cure Etton at some point in the future?

Invite Grego, we still need the troops, and now we also need the supplies.

Can we use some of our treasury funds to buy supplies?
