It's entirely possible that the whole Ardan succession crisis is going to be a bait and switch, and that the issue is going to be decided in Tyna's favor by Alonon unexpectedly designating her as his heir, overriding whatever the council's decision is. The political jockeying in the runup may determine whether this choice has any legitimacy or not, and how big a mess she has on succeeding.

The speculative reasoning on this is pretty straightforward: Up to this point the game has been mostly running on rails in terms of plot, with the choices one makes not changing the outcome of the BIG events, just varying the size of the messes you make in the course of those events. The future political leadership of Ardoheim and New Givini are pretty BIG events, like the primary questions of war and alliance at the Ardford Conference. So if it goes to form, the outcomes will be predetermined.

It also amuses me to think LordCraven12 misspelled "duke" instead of "douche". Yea, I think on the same line, but if ardoheim destiny will be absorbed in the "simons' empire of all" the name of the king/queen is irrelevant in the big scheme.

another thing I am toying is linked to the 'hospitality' stat of the new HQ, hospitality means foreign dignitary on a diplomatic mission, and well for now dargai is only the most trusted commander of the DK. Yes, he does some errand in the elven forest and such, but taking a primary role in the diplomatic environment is too much for the actual politic situation of the continent.

@lordcraven12: I suppose the bank fehliel point is the adran one, they don't let 'dirty yhilin hand' but extra continental empire... (hypocrite like the stineford high priestess letting the gilded lily run smoothly)
