Winter Court

During Winter, when a medieval court is trapped by harsh weather within a single castle, two rival diplomats scheme to advance their agendas. Should you directly approach the royals, or should you first build alliances with other court members whose influence might sway the royals to your side? Consider the potential benefits: the Steward’s purse could enhance your influence, while the Lover might help win over the lovesick Prince.

The Knight could be instrumental in gaining the favor of the Ruler or the attention of the military-minded Princess. Even the scheming Charlatan or the Fool’s biting wit could serve as strategic assets. Where should you start? Who should you engage first?
