Board Thread:What Would You Do?/@comment-35836714-20180708122922

You are the next heir in line to a small kingdom in the far west of the continent. Your country may be small in size, but it is very rich because of it's large amount of resources from minerals to fertile soil etc. It wasn't long ago the your father the king died of an illness and now you as his only child and son have to take the place as the nations king. In all the years as crown prince you have learned much about politics and economy, so that you may one day be able to guide the nation to even more prosperity.

But in the last couple of years there have been some unforeseeable changes in the kingdoms around your little nation. The country to the east, which was a big but harsh land, was taken over by the religious faction called "The Order" and now they want your country to "accept" the chef gods rule and be part of their reign.

The country to the west of yours was recently taken over by a lilim, a daughter of the demon lord and was completely changed into a demon realm. That means that you, as the king of your country, have to protect the interests of your little speck of Land against those two "giants", which isn't really all that easy. Even your advisors are divided on the matter, many of them urge you to join the Order so that you population "at least" stays human in a coming war and the others say you should negotiate with the lilim's new formed country because the Order clearly loses the fight for dominion over the world.

By the time you discuss the matter with your most trusted allies, the Order has already sent on of their diplomats or priests. He jabbered to you about how the chef god would save your country from the doom that the demons would bring, but as a smart man you know that Mamonos don't eat humans, as your country hosts a lot of Weresheep and Holstaur who are like all mamono peacefull creatures.

Some time after the envoy of the order left your kingdom you received a letter form the new Queen Veronika (the lilim) to visit her in her realm, in order to discuss a peace treaty so that your and her nation could trade goods and how she wrote "other" cultures. Most of your advisors are against the idea of you personally leaving the country, but she expliecitly stated that you would have to visit her in order to make the treaty and no representative.

You think for days about her proposal, on one hand it would be ideal to go for a trade relationship with her kingdom and avoid being invaded, but on the other hand you would make enemies of the new formend Order nation to your east. After a long time of thinking and weighing the odds you decided to visit the queen and at least hear her out. Once you arrived safely at her Palace and are

greeted by her and her subjects, you are invited to discuss the matters of the treaty with her alone in her office. You expected to hear some kind of basic trade contract, but her proposal shocked you to your core as it stangely sounded like a marriage proposal...
