Hello!!

[Björn Ironfist]

So it's official - I have lost all my common sense and joined Shireroth! You all have the luxury of gaining me as a loyal citizen of this great Duchy. So my question is: what do I do now???

[Arviður]

Maybe ask for a county?

[Björn Ironfist]

Cape Farewell was offered, and I accepted (I think). What should I do once that's finalized? Is there some task awaiting me?

[Arviður]

Once Lady Isabelle has appointed you the count... you can do whatever you want to. Make laws, develop culture, do a journey. That's the joy of Shireroth, you do what you want.

If you want to be told what to do I'm sure the Kaiser has job openings

[Björn Ironfist]

Hehe.

I doubt I have time for anything official. My recent promotion in Stormark has put enough on my plate as it is.

But what's this? Do whatever I want? Holy balls...

[Malliki Tosha]

Pretty much, yeah. Don't do anything illegal or against a direct order from your Baron, Duke or the Kaiser, you can do pretty much whatever you want to.

[Björn Ironfist]

Pretty much, yeah. Don't do anything illegal or against a direct order from your Baron, Duke or the Kaiser, you can do pretty much whatever you want to.

I think I can live with those stipulations.

[Allot]

It is done. I think Rai/Ric had some culture going there, so read up on whatever there is in Cape Farewell and then run wild!

But no treason. That's out of bounds.

[Björn Ironfist]

No treason...got it. Promise.

Ok I have a few questions. Umm - there's a flag for Cape Farewell, and a language. Am I obligated to retain those? Cause to be honest, I don't care for the flag, and the language made me wish that a random rocket would strike my house so I'd have an excuse not to try and decipher it anymore.

Oh but we break that rule all the time, don't worry aboot it.

[Björn Ironfist]

lol nice

Ahaha, no, you are not obligated to retain those. Those are Ric/Rai's little children, so they are really just background information. Feel free to come up with a new flag and language if you want.

[Arviður]

Björn,

Isabelle is right.

As to the "fictional" history of it all, the speakers of the language almost all went away, to Ashkenazi lands in the south. So Cape Farewell pretty much consists of what's left from the exodus of the Elw, meaning probably some Elfinshi, and general Elwynnese

[Aurangzeb Khan]

Problem: Incomprehensible culture
Solution: Viking Invasion...
Sorted.

[Eoin]

It worked for Greenland/Hyperborea.

[Scott of Hyperborea]

I kinda liked Cape Farewell. It was in a way the soul of Elwynn, the place Ric lavished his love on.

Why don't you take Cimmeria + Avaldsnes instead? Avaldsnes is already Viking, and Cimmeria could be settled without losing much.

[Björn Ironfist]

I am not making Cape Farewell viking. And I have been having some long conversations with Ric over the ideas I do have; and so far there's nothing he's having a problem with. I should hope that if he's ok with me taking care of the place he lavished his love on, everyone else should be, as well.
