Dialogue[]
“ | Emissaries from the southern Orlanthi kingdom of Forosan demand wealth worth 50 cows. "Without cattle to appease our border chieftains, King <Armanil/Urganos> will be unable to discourage them from raiding you." | ” |
— Six Ages 2: Lights Going Out |
Consequences[]
If you tell them: "Your border chieftains should raid us, if they wish to die," but fail to intimidate them, you can expect a Forosilvuli raid in the future. Mood decreases. Alternatively, they may be bluffing, and you can tell you just called them on it, increasing Mood instead.
If you refuse, and then send spirits to vex them, you have the option of taxing your spirit bonds. Success here will mean that the Forosilvuli are so plagued by the spirits that they soon send emissaries back to ask you to relent, even gifting you 10 Goods for the trouble.
