Storm went to Stjordvik and the negotiations still have to be done. But which month was it Fausto? It was the last one the rest played out. :)

Work in progress:

Having gained Sigurd's blessing, Storm travels to Stjordvik with his mind on the throne.

Month 10 - it took you two weeks to go to Hollingholmen, then you spent a few days here and there, talking with Storm Holtson and such, and it took you two weeks to back to Lemnjhoen.

Month 11 - You spent some time updating the king, and got his approval for your next diplomatic mission to Stjordvik. So I would say you will reach Hollinghommen again by the beginning of Month 12. You can spend there a couple of weeks, and be back in Lemnjohen by the end of the month.

In that case in those weeks Storm will spend his time on this plan.

The Goal: Become King of Stjordvik and filthy rich by taxing other rich people.

Storm will present to Storm Holtson that his deal is accepted by King Sigurd. In trade for the Stjordvik Trader support they are granted a 50% monopoly of all trade in Stjordvik and Dhoesone. The Stjordvik Traders will support Sigurds candidate for Kingship in Stjordvik and stand aside in Dhoesone.

Further, Storm will offer to Holtson that his trade in Stjordvik will be untaxed in return for the Stjordvik Traders full support in his bid to kingship and assistance in defence of Stjordvik in case of foreign invasion. After all a safe kingdom is a wealthy kingdom and a wealthy kingdom is a cashcow.

Storm Holtson confirms that he will support Sigurd, and he will have his armies step aside.

Regarding providing military help in defense of the realm, he also agrees, but with the caveat that he will help only if it is clear who the king/ruler is.

What he means is, he will not use his armies to fight against the present king of Stjordvik, but once Sigurd is made king, he will defend Stjordvik against invaders.

He also mentions that before taking care of the king himself, it would be advisable to teach some manners to his jarls.

To Holtson, on all accounts, deal.

To start I will present my best clothes and winning smile and request an audience with the King.

A message of friendship between our peoples to be cemented by a marriage of his daughter with King Sigurd's brother-in-law.

The diplomatic effort with Holtson will take your current Action (last month of the 4th quarter).

Further dealings with the King can be attempted in the next month.

And I suggest to bring some presents... :)

I'd ask my mother or sister if I can loan a goldbar with the express confirmation it is to assist Sigurd and secure a good marriage and not one of my get-rich-quick schemes.

(Then when I have the goldbar worth in money, I'll shave half the coins.)
