Chapter 12 by Zingiber Zingiber

Roll +Ambition(+1) to APPEASE Rebecca, or (+3) if you use a FAVOR.

Use a FAVOR. On a 10+, choose one.

Finally Anastasia arrives.

"Who is this, Godwyne?" she asks.

You give Anastasia a broad smile. "This is Rebecca, one of your greatest admirers," you say. "She helped rescue me from a dip in the Chilly Tarn today. I would count it as a great favor if you help make her welcome."

Anastasia raises her eyebrow at you and regards Rebecca. Sizing up the young Leontes student, she takes a deep breath and turns on the charm.

⚀⚅ + 3 = 10.

Rebecca hangs on your older sister's every word, her eyes shining behind her glasses. She nods her head furiously when Anastasia makes a suggestion, and repeatedly has to brush back her thick black braid when it flips over her shoulder.

Your attention wanders for a moment, regarding the dramatic depictions of Ambition and other favored virtues upon the walls. When you return to the here-and-now, Anastasia is poking you to get your attention.

"Godwyne, you ninny," Anastasia says.


When you APPEASE YOUR HANGER-ON, on a 10+, choose one:

  • They owe you a FAVOR. Describe how Rebecca is satisfied.
  • They manage to help you out somehow. Describe a way Rebecca helps you out and take +1 Forward on your next Move.

One option for +1 Forward: ENCOUNTER Anastasia while she's flattered by Rebecca's attention and ask her for another FAVOR.

Choose one and describe the results.

More fun
