Business as usual

“Next, on the agenda, will be the law forbidding any sale in proximity of 1000 meters from the Rau temple.” Shasco Denlow, representative of traders in your district, spoke. “The law was created about 400 years ago, so to people didn'tcome to the temples with food and ****. But with time, the temple opened its own shop and started selling, by ridiculous prices.”

“That may be true that the prices are high, but they all serves a purpose. People don't come to the temple with foods or drinks leaving the temple as it should be – a place for contemplation, not a park to eat food in.” Isamad Graznara, high priestess of Rau temple countered. “High prizes are to discourage people from buying. But we understand that sometimes people just need to drink, so we made it possible to get the necessities in shop.”

You decide to

[A1]remove the law – after all, temple is breaking it anyway.

[A2]keep the law, you have no intention of antagonizing the clergy.

[A3]write in

[A4]keep the law for now, but reduce the distance to 500 meters.

[A6] keep the law, but order them to cut the prices down by 30%.

“Next on the agenda is the law makes it obligatory to bow before the statue of king Blajus II, under the penalty of imprisonment.” Deajoy Belpet says. She's one of representatives of citizens in your district.

“It's a dead law! No one abides it anyway and no one is punished for it!” Feledg Bixtib, one of lawyers protests.

“Except the last two candidates for judges. Both of them were arrested right before elections and punished for this exact crime.” Deajoy counters.

[B1]remove the law – it will give you popularity with district's citizens.

[B2]keep the law – the lawyers and judges will owe you a favor.

[B3]write in

[B4]replace all statues of King Blajus II with statues of yourself, then adjust the law to make it obligatory for people to bow before statues of yourself

In the evening you sit in your office, drinking wine and entertaining Rachaime with conversation.

Rachaime is in great mood, because she recently

[C1]acquired a contract with Trade Federation

[C2]acquired a new farm – which was confiscated from royal sympathizers

[C3]write in

acquisition of which

[D1]was illegal in light of law but she doesn't know about it.

[D2]was illegal in light of law and she knows about it.

[D3]was legal in light of law.

Of course, she got it due to your intervention

[E1]which she knows about.

[E2]but she doesn't know of your involvement.

[E3]write in.

“So, how many suitors you've had recently?” you ask. You know that she's a widow.

“None.”

“Oh come on, you are not deceiving anyone. Such a lovely widow – beautiful, rich. What a man” You pause dramatically and theatrically roam over her body with your eyes “or a woman, could want more?” you finish, smiling mischievously.

“Well,” she smiles, while blushing a little “there was this one guy a week ago, but I shot him quite quickly. He was in age of my son, for Froce's sake.” she shakes her head. “Still... it's pretty flattering.” She winks at you.

You laugh.

“Ain't it?”

You smile and rise your glass. She clinks it with smile of her own.

You walk down the cell blocks accompanied by OOM301.

“301, I want every blood sample of every citizen of district checked on the number of midi-chlorians. Every person with number over 3 000 is to be reported to me.”

“Ma'am, we are to take blood of every single citizen?” it asked little scared.

“No,” it would create chaos and rise some unnecessary suspicion “use the existing database... and try to be discreet about it.” That's probably asking too much from Federation droid... but one can dream. You will have to ask Rachaime about any extraordinary individuals... as for Jedi. “Also, make sure to search anyone wearing brown clock for lightsaber. Just... make sure that the droids don't speak about what they are searching for. Let them tell that it's a random search.”

“Roger, Roger.” OOM301 leaves you.

You stop before the cell of Nelsguy Coulplu, one of the five members of Muncau – a most greedy one and least loyal one.

You decided to negotiate with the family and try to rein them and bring the under your thumb. Should the negotiations fail you intend to

[F1]crush them. Kill all who resist, interrogate the survivors (if there are any) for family's riches then publicly execute them. They will serve as an example and inspire the fear.

[F2]arrest as many as you can then interrogate them for family's riches.

[F3]leave them – you have other things to take care of.

[F4]write in.

[F5]crush them, kill those who resist, capture the pretty ones and put them to work in a brothel as indentured servants

You intend to

[G1]seduce

[G2]****

[G3]intimidate

[G4]write in

[G5]**** and intimidate

Nelsguy Coulplu, to working for you. Of course, officially he will still be working for his family. But off the record he will be your mole.
