Dialogue[]
“ | <Noble> reports that the <Vestantes/Forosilvuli/Rider> people you adopted helped spur a burst of beneficial activity. They remembered farming and crafting methods your people had forgotten, and taught them to others. Eager to fit in with their new kinfolk, they have with surprising ease adopted Berenethtelli customs and language.

Consequences[]
At the start of the event, you receive some Goods and some Food. Mood may also rise.
If you praise the adoptees, the people may echo your words. The adoptees say they will always be who they were, but will now always be part of your clan, and nothing was better than that. If so, Mood improves. Alternatively, some envious voices may say the adoptees had just gotten lucky. If so, Mood goes down instead.
If you throw a feast in their honor, you must choose the amount of Food to spend, a cautious, generous, or neither too much or too little an amount. This runs the risk that spirits sour over the course of the feast, as old bloodlines say it had been too long a time since a feast was held for them; Mood may drop.
