Biniam's Vision - Great Plans

Biniam wants your help examining various architectural proposals for a monumental building he is calling "The Research Institute." It is Biniam's belief that the expertise of scholars from all around the world might be brought together under one roof: a truly international campus university housed in the cultural nexus that is the Old World.

• Shop around for Research Institute proposals: Architects at Ketema's Harbour
• Shop around for Research Institute proposals: Architects at Kidusi Anitoni's Harbour
• Shop around for Research Institute proposals: Architects at Waha Desher's Harbour

Something to Chew Over

Emperor Ketema extols the virtues of the Enbesan dried meat curing process, and asks you to help him provide the people of greater Taborime with plenty of this enduring local speciality.

• Sustain across the region: 0/80% of Dried Meat supply for 01:00

Taming the Towers

Still very much in good humour, Janihoy Ketema tests you with a riddle. There seems to be something more to the towers of his Imperial palace. Each bears an animal representing one facet of Enbesan identity, a kingdom with a strict hierarchy...

• Select Ketema to talk to him
• Solve Ketema's enigma by finding the correct towers in the correct order:
  1. Zebra
  2. Hyena
  3. Hippo
  4. Cheetah
  5. Lion

The Empress's Baths

Emperor Ketema expresses the Empress' disappointment at the condition of the time-honoured bathing area in the vicinity of the Imperial Palace. He hopes you will be able to restore it in keeping with its importance to the ancient line of kings, but also as a central place of commune for the people of Taborime.

• Remove the objects blocking the bathing area:
  • Toppled Tree
  • Bath-Invading Rocks
  • Branches & Twigs

The Goatberg Variations

Emperor Ketema asks you to investigate a behooven miracle — a baaarbershop quintet of pitch-perfect goatlets. Perhaps with a little prompt from a conductor...

• Select Ketema to talk to him
• Play the Enbesan hymn using the goats
  1. Do
  2. Mi
  3. So
  4. Ti
  5. La

Experience Teaches

Following the momentarily amusing goat diversion, Emperor Ketema wishes for a quick return to serious business. He asks that you invite the strident yet venerable elders to preside over the new district of Taborime that you've established.

• Attract: 0/1 Elders

A Man Out Of Sorts

Emperor Ketema does not wish to give Sir Archibald opportunity to settle unchecked at his borders, and asks if you would reach out and see what, exactly, it is that he is after.

• Sail to Blake's Enbesan Harbour

Banquet of Implications

Emperor Ketema accepts it is his obligation to welcome Sir Archibald to a formal banquet at his palace, at the summit of Taborime. He hopes you will be able to provide dried meat and tapestries commensurate with such an occasion.

• Deliver to Ketema's Lighthouse: 5t Tapestries
• Deliver to Ketema's Lighthouse: 5t Dried Meat

Getting A Grip

Sir Archibald is having great difficulty acclimatising to the change of temperature and culture. He hopes you will give him a leg up and share the water canal design patents Ketema and Biniam developed.

• Pick up at Ketema's Lighthouse: Water Pump Blueprints
• Deliver to Blake's Enbesan Harbour: Water Pump Blueprints

Local Guide

Sir Archibald is rather jumpy at having been thrown into the deep end here in Enbesa. He asks if you, as a person he knows and trusts, would act as a guide and escort him to the diplomatic banquet Ketema has laid on.

• Approach the ship to begin the escort
• Escort to Ketema's Lighthouse: 0/1 Blake's Diplomatic Clipper

Banquet of Implications - Invitation

Emperor Ketema extends an invitation to you to attend the important meeting with Sir Archibald, believing you may be able to offer support as a non-partisan intermediary.

Dialogues

Part one

Sir Archibald: "Perhaps you could introduce us, Empire to 'Empire'?"

• This is Sir Archibald Blake, the Queen's ambassador. - Proceeds to part two
• This is Sir Archibald Blake, a man of culture and decency. - Proceeds to part two
• This is old Archie Blake, my best friend. - Proceeds to part two

Part two

Sir Archibald: "I come to you in person, since Her Majesty's letters do not seem to be reaching you...They contain, should you not already be aware, copies of a protectorate agreement requiring your swift signature. Such an agreement would guarantee Enbesa's protection against envious forces in the region, and leave your people's future in the safe hands of the Queen — an offer any judicious tributary to the Crown would be delighted with."

• Protection? You mean to make Enbesa a vassal!
  • Emperor Ketema: "Hear that, Biniam — our Steward here adds their voice to ours. Sir Archibald — I happen to agree with my Steward, this proposal is outrageous."
    • Continue - Proceeds to part three
• The Queen is indeed powerful — it's an offer worth your consideration.
  • Enbesa is herself a great empire, there is no reason you should bow to these terms.
    • Such an offer could benefit both parties.
      • Continue - Proceeds to part three
    • (Remain silent and let Biniam speak)
      • Yes, perhaps...Sir Archibald here did not make the most gracious of entrances, but before we dismiss him, we should take the time to hear his and his Queen's point of view.
        • Continue - Proceeds to part three
• (Remain silent and let Biniam speak)
  • Kiburi Biniam: "Bridging the divide between our two peoples has always been my own dream as well as that of Janihoy Ketema— but not like this... Enbesa will not be subordinated, she is an Empire in her own right, and the equal of any other. What say you to an imperial alliance between Ketema and your Queen, for example?"
    • Continue - Proceeds to part three

Part three

Emperor Ketema: "Imperial Enbesa does not need what you call protection but a fair alliance — toe-to-toe, equal to equal. That, I would be ready to discuss."

• Sir Archibald, I believe it would be the right thing to agree such an alliance.
  • Sir Archibald: "An alliance?! Preposterous! She is not MY Queen, she is THE Queen, OUR Queen. Why am I even here, if you are going to behave like a pair of parochial stick-in-the-muds! Now if you don't mind, these farcical negotiations are at an end!"
    • Continue - Negotiations end
• Sir Archibald, perhaps you could take some time to think over it.
  • Sir Archibald: "An alliance?! Preposterous! She is not MY Queen, she is THE Queen, OUR Queen. Why am I even here, if you are going to behave like a pair of parochial stick-in-the-muds! Now if you don't mind, these farcical negotiations are at an end!"
    • Continue - Negotiations end

Official Hospitality - The Cuisine

Emperor Ketema maintains that introducing Sir Archibald to the sensory joys of Enbesan culture can win him over to its self-sufficiency, leading to the possibility of happier and renewed negotiations.

• Deliver to Blake's Enbesan Harbour: 2t Seafood Stew

Biniam's Vision - Great Expertise

Taborime Dreams

Emperor Ketema believes having more elders in the Keftanya Moot will make Taborime more commanding in the face of adversity. Attract more elders and grow the city.

• Attract: 600 Elders

Taborime Dreams - Stymie

Sir Archibald does not like to see Taborime and Enbesa expanding so fast in this region, and hopes to offer you 'incentives' to stall the expansions Ketema has proposed you carry out for him.

• EITHER: Sustain in Enbesa:

  Residents' happiness below 5 for 15:00

Taborime Dreams - Growth

Expand the city in line with Ketema's ambitions. Emperor Ketema wishes for Taborime and its many districts to grow larger still, especially now that it is under the scrutiny of the Crown and Sir Archibald.

• OR: Sustain:

  800 of Elders for 15:00

Disarming Smiles

Sir Archibald is aware of Emperor Ketema's plan to further fortify Taborime with cannons, and hopes that you will instead 'accidentally' fulfil his own request for the identical materials required for their assembly.

• EITHER: Deliver to Blake's Enbesan Harbour:
  • 20t Wanza Timber
  • 15t Mud Bricks
  • 10t Weapons

Cannon Aid

Emperor Ketema has decided that tensions have escalated enough between Enbesa and the Crown to warrant the construction of additional fortifications. Sir Archibald may have little or no firepower for a war at present, but the Royal Fleet could in theory be called upon to make the long voyage from the Old World.

• OR: Deliver to Ketema's Lighthouse:
  • 20t Wanza Timber
  • 15t Mud Bricks
  • 10t Weapons

Hospitality Wears Thin

Guests, like fish, begin to smell after a few days. Emperor Ketema decides that sending Sir Archibald a beehive as a gift will signal to him the unity and self-sufficiency of Enbesa, as well as the willingness of his people to defend their home in the face of any provocation...

• Pick up at Ketema's Lighthouse: Beehive With Letter
• Deliver to Blake's Enbesan Harbour: Beehive With Letter

How Do You Like Them Apples

Sir Archibald's insolent response to escalating tensions is to ask you to deliver Ketema a mocking gift — copious amounts of fruit from the Old World, all of which appears too overripe to be properly enjoyed.

• Pick up at Blake's Enbesan Harbour: Overripe Fruit Basket
• Deliver to Ketema's Lighthouse: Overripe Fruit Basket

Cutting Off Relations

Biniam is disgusted by the seemingly malignant actions of Sir Archibald Blake, whose gift of fruit spread disease in Taborime. Biniam wants your help in sneaking onto the island of Little Clarence, in order for him to take revenge by cutting off Sir Archibald's island-wide water supply.

• Pick up at Ketema's Lighthouse: Biniam
• Slip past patrols to Blake's Enbesan Harbour and deliver: Biniam

Biniam is disgusted by the seemingly malignant actions of Sir Archibald Blake, whose gift of fruit spread disease in Taborime. Biniam wants your help in finding the water pumps on Little Clarence, so he may cut off Sir Archibald's island-wide water supply and avenge Enbesa.

• Select Biniam to signal that the sabotage can begin
• Keep an eye on Biniam as he sabotages Archie's water pumps

Drums of War

Emperor Ketema is dismayed at your and Biniam's inflammatory actions, and decides he has no choice now but to gather a fleet in Enbesa, to deal with any future reprisal from Sir Archibald, and indeed, his Queen.

• Have at least 6 military ships in Enbesa

Faith and Unity

Emperor Ketema requests that you help the population keep the faith during this difficult time by providing them with scriptures — perhaps hoping for a miraculous intervention in what increasingly seems like a war between Enbesa and the Crown.

• Attract: 1000 Elders
• Sustain across the region: 0/80% of Illuminated Scripts supply for 01:00
• Build: 0/1 Monastery

A Worried Mother

Emperor Ketema has sent you to Kyria, Biniam's mother, so that you may bear her the bad news that her beloved son is to be transported to the far side of the world as punishment for his actions. How you break the news to her is up to you.

Epiphany

Emperor Ketema regrets that the only way to deliver Kyria to Sir Archibald, so she may inform him that his prisoner Biniam is actually his long-lost son, is to destroy the mercenary vessels currently blockading Little Clarence. Ketema believes this is the only way to prevent the advent of a disastrous war.

• Destroy: 0/2 Frigate

Full Disclosure

Archibald wishes for you to accompany him, and talk with him ahead of the final negotiations for the recognition of Enbesan independence. The outpost of Little Clarence has been dismantled, and it seems Sir Archibald has no intention of maintaining any further Crown presence in the region.

Dialogues

Part one

Sir Blake, I am glad to see you back at the negotiation table, and with, if I be not mistaken, a certain composure to your face. Neverthless, as this has been a difficult business, I hope you will take this opportunity to recognise Enbesa as an empire worthy of an alliance. (Ketema glances across the table at you) Don't you agree, my long-standing steward? Enbesa grows greatly, does it not?

• Enbesa is no small empire and continues to grow! She would be an asset to the Crown. (Unlock Condition: Shepherds: 2200, Elders: 1800)
