"We've got two regions left and we've been overrun by our enemies! Lets throw a tournament!!"

Yeah, wtf?

I'm scratching my head over that one.

The important question is: Why is that 4k gold not being used to try and survive?

Thats exactly what I thought. Like your army was too small to defeat LN but when your about to die you suddenly have 4k to spend on a tournament. But I am kinda interested in it and might have a way to make it a bit more interesting. Throw in some wagers that ain't gold maybe.

It's a repeat of the Rape of the Sabine Women. (for anyone who knows Roman History)

Bipel surrendered already: survival is now an idea of the past. Part of the terms include Alice being crowned sole and rightful monarch of Luria Vesperi, by Bipel himself. In return, he gets to host his own tournament, for giggles and stuff.
The adherents of different religions in a realm should compete for power, influence, and fresh converts. They don't even have to be killing each other to do so. I wish people promoted the prosperity of their religions the same way they promoted the growth and prosperity of their realms. - Geronus

On a scale of 1-10, how prideful are lurians?

Is it prideful if you really are that great?

1:1 payout for those voting he doesn't last a week.
3:1 payout for those voting he'll last less than a month.
1:1 payout for those voting he'll not be banned at all.

What is Freedom? - ye can tell; That which slavery is, too well; For its very name has grown; To an echo of your own

T'is to work and have such pay; As just keeps life from day to day; In your limbs, as in a cell; For the tyrants' use to dwell
