Dialogue[]
“ | Hanth, your irascible devotee of Dostal, returns from a hunting trip carrying a clutch of minks and an empty drinking skin. The king, who happens to be riding the outer edges of your clan lands as Hanth stumbles in, demands to know where he got the ale, why he isn't sharing it with others, and what example he sets for the youth by getting drunk alone out in the dangerous wild lands. "I got the ale from <Dostal, as gratitude for keeping his ways alive/spirits, in thanks for driving off Chaos ghosts>. That's more than you've done for this clan in ages, you <bag of stale wind/red-eyes night rambler>."

Consequences[]
At the start of event, Mood goes down.
If you let the dispute wind down on its own, it goes on for a while and the people may be worried over the distraction this would cause, thus causing Mood to fall further.
Getting the king to back down is difficult due to his stubborn personality, but if successful he will realize he is undermining his own authority instead and praise Hanth's contribution. Mood will go up and both Iverlantho and Hanth's reputation will rise. If the clan's ancestral spirits favor Hanth, they will also reward you with 1 Magic.
Notes[]
This event can star Hanvan if Iverlantho survives long enough, but typically involves Hanth.
Alternate pictures may be used depending on the age of the two characters.
