Displeased with having their trade proposal ignored the Lost Arc attack us ruthlessly and steal lots of cattle, crops, and even some many crystals.
Seems like the prisoner we caught was really some kind of witch. She manages to flee with a whole bunch of human females, her whereabouts unknown.
We offer a boat to the cultist that arrived at our lands under the condition he tells us how the ritual works and how to disrupt it. The cultist says it is all very simple, when the stars allign they have a chance of opening the rift between realities, a minor rift happens once or twice per decade, while a major rift is an once in a century affair. There is a major rift expected in a decade or two, the cultists can't fully precise it, but if the ritual is not performed at the appropriate site and the appropriate time then the rift will not be opened enough for a demon lord to spawn - only minor demons. The cultist tries to explain something really complicated about reality being some kind of web but we are not entirely sure even he knows what he is talking about. Satisfied with the newfound knowledge, we set him free, to sail the waves in our worst boat back to wherever he can call home.
We decide to use the remainder of the prisoners as farmhands, so that there is always someone with an eye on them.
The giant demon attacks this year. A shaman is killed during the fight that ensues.
Pick Two Actions. Please explain what you want to do.
These concerns have been brought to your attention by your council:
1 - Our shamans are angry at the Lost Arc Tribe and wish to cast a powerful curse upon them - a plague which will decimate them! They just need 400 mana crystals. Don't worry, not all at once.
2 - The tribe is angry at the human cultists for the death of a shaman and demand we go imediatelly on a raid to show them who's boss.
3 - Our warriors want to go on a retaliatory raid against the Rockar band, which they refuse to acknowledge as a new tribe. Not launching a raid means you acknowledge them.
4 - Elves arrive in a wagon full of common goods - pans and pots, knives and saws, ropes and cloth. They are asking mana crystals in exchange of their goods.
5 - The necromancer says that with his magic he saw an invading force coming from the north towards the south. If they decide to land on our shores, he might need our help to defend himself so he asks we stay in high alert.
6 - The farmer want us to attack the humans so we can seize more farmland nearby in order to not need to keep splitting the tribe every time there is a minor shortage of edibles.
7 - Children keep pestering the slaves, tossing things at them. The slaves are probably only learning curse words from the children.
