The Londoners Prey on Discontent (Arc)

The Londoners Prey on Discontent is an event arc in A New Home.

The Londoners Prey on Discontent
This arc behaves somewhat differently than most event arcs, and some events can trigger multiple times. The events "A few are persuaded," "A restless group," and "An agitated crowd" are effectively the same event with different flavours. They can all trigger when you have high discontent, and they all have the same choices, which are discussed after the events.

A few are persuaded
This event will trigger if you have about 33% to 50% discontent"A member of the Londoners is talking to a crowd. He's trying to scare as many as possible into joining the exodus to London, but his visions of doom ring false in the ears of people, who are content with the situation in our city."



A restless group
This event will trigger if you have about 50% to 66% discontent."A crowd is listening to one of the Londoners, who's scaring people with visions of doom. He's trying to persuade them to flee to London. The discontented seem to take his words to heart, but others remain unconvinced."



An agitated crowd
This event will trigger if you have more than 66% discontent."A member of the Londoners is stirring up a restless crowd. He's scaring people into joining the exodus to London! Their discontent with the situation in our city makes his visions of doom all the more believable."

Options
For each of the above events, you'll have the following options:


 * Let him speak: The number of Londoners will rise

 * Ask a cleric to reassure people: The number of Londoners will rise slightly. Requires a House of Prayer

Revenge
If you chose "Chase the speaker away" or "Ask a cleric to reassure people" during one of the main events, this event may trigger.

"Sir! The guard you sent to chase the Londoners' speaker away... He's dead. They hanged him from the Generator. A piece of paper was found pinned to his lifeless body with "LIARS" written on it."

If you chose "Ask a cleric to reassure people" the event will have this flavour:

"Sir! The priest you sent to challenge the Londoners' speaker... He's dead. They hanged him from the Generator. A piece of paper was found pinned to his lifeless body with "LIARS" written on it."
