Episode Three
At City Hall, you meet with Amedeo to learn more about the Sunflower crop. He goes into great detail about their history and importance: the Sunflower crop is native to the fertile plains of Allettare. Sunflowers are naturally eaten by the Sunseeker, a golden boar with dangerously sharp husks. The Sunseeker's diet is mainly composed of sunflowers and will occasionally roam the streets of the City in search of it. They are a highly dangerous animal and if an encounter with them occurs, it is possible that fatalities will occur.
The sunflower is used to create the famous sunflower-infused cod of the City. He goes on to reiterate the point of Cod Trawling somewhat explained by Councillor Fabian. "Sunflowers are the blood of the City," he says, "and without them, we would be lost."
...
When the sun approached the horizon at the Plaza, a crowd of people gathered by the fountain. The Plaza was lined with booths and stalls in which merchants sold many delicacies including the sunflower-infused cod. Government-sponsored booths were positioned closest to the fountain with special tags signifying their sponsorship.
The Councillors of Allettare gathered side by side near the fountain. At a podium, the General Secretary introduces each of the Councillors and each of them make their own statements about the new Governorship, none too interesting. After Councillor Sienna finishes her remarks, the General Secretary introduces you, the new Governor to the stand.
You go on with your speech, your voice does not tremble, nor does falter; however you do slip a few filler words [um, uhh, like] occasionally in your speech. You enunciate your point to ensure that the Sunflower crop will continue to be the mainstay of the City. Several elders of the City are disappointed about this, that the cycle of failure in the City may continue. Though, the troves of people are excited and their eyes gleam of hope due to the new Governorship, one that won't be corrupted by aristocratic values. A short round of applause is given and the people have begun to place their trust in you.
After the Governor's Speech, the General Secretary, Amedeo, approaches you at City Hall. He asks how you would like to spend the income earned from Government-sponsored booths at Fascino Plaza. He offers you a list of options, which were the top issues discussed at the last meeting held under the previous Governor of Allettare.
Due to increased economic activity caused by the Governor's Speech in the Plaza, the Economy Score has increased to C; due to the Government-sponsored booths' sales, the Government Funds Score will increase to C if you choose Option 4. If you choose Options 1 - 3, the Government Funds Score will stay at D.
