Emissaries Talk Climate Change

Dialogue[]

“	Emissaries from the <Other> clan <gift you/offer a gift of> <quicksilver/amber/scented oil/boxwood> worth <number> cows. But the <main/real/primary> reason for their visit is to <converse about/discuss> how the world grows colder. “<It has been getting harder to grow some of the sacred herbs/Frosts often harm the harvest>, and <horses sometimes freeze to death/Dark season is hard on the herds>. What do your elders say?” “Perhaps the Riders should form a kingdom, to pool our resources.” “If we both migrate together, we could support each other.” “Let’s perform a joint sacrifice, to strengthen Elmal’s warmth.” “It’s terrible, but what can you do?”	”

Consequences[]

A kingdom is a hard sell at best, since the Riders have a firm tradition of lacking kings.

A successful sacrifice to Elmal will have the sun shine warmer for a moment. It won't have any lasting effects, but this display increases the Mood.
