Type	Random Event

Dialogue

“	Emissaries of the <Rider Clan>s, a Rider clan, come to bring you a herd of pigs. The god you <share with them/both worship>, Elmal the Guardian Sun, commanded them to gift you in repayment of a boon he granted them. Elmal says that <your/our> leader, <Chief>, has shown leadership that inspires the valley. <Diplomat Ring Member> has spent much time riding with them, telling them of <Chief>'s recent <triumphs/travails>. Tell the people that <Chief> made this happen. Tell the people that <Ring Member> made this happen. Tell the people that Elmal made this happen. Tell the people that the ring made this happen. Get out of the way as your noble families distribute the pigs.	”

Consequences

At the start of the event, Mood is increased and you receive +20 herds.

If you tell the people that your chief made this happen, they will be happy for a simple and easy matter that could not go wrong. You chief's popularity is likely to increase.

If you tell the people that the ring made this happen, the people may agree that this is fitting. If so, the ring's popularity is likely to increase.

If you tell the people that Elmal made this happen, then the people, especially those from Rider bloodlines, may approve of this show of piety. If so, Mood improves further.

Notes

The Diplomat Ring Member to spread the word of your leader's deed is often Reda or her daughter, Rodene.

The clan is a random Rider clan and may even be the Pure Horse Clan, which is not supposed to herd animals other than horses.
