Action by Sudara

Not wanting to rest on her laurels when there is still so much that can be done for her people, Sudara is engaging in another wave of development on Esterhold. Once again working in direct alignment with the castle-improvement starting at the same time, she is making an even more substantial investment in the economy and living conditions of her domain. In particular, she is passing on what she's learned and what the sages have to teach about communal productivity and prosperity, aided by the growing body of trained and experienced Truesworn available to teach others. The intent is to bring people together for both the common good and their own individual benefit. Better employment, more wealth, stronger bonds of community: all under the protection of their improved defences. If her own people, Belladonna's recruitment drive, or Jyri's on-going charitable efforts locate refugees keen to resettle on Esterhold, then this can also serve as a grand way to integrate them and guarantee they can support themselves in their new home.


Action by Tenebrae

Though the economy is still not her area of expertise (or interest), Tenebrae's passionate commitment to bettering the lives of the Truesworn remains in place, and she knows a lot about motivating work and collaboration. This is also a chance to inspire her people, and prove to both residents and visitors that the people of Esterhold can build a lasting legacy in prosperity as well as defensive stone. She happily throws herself into organising work crews and encouraging commitment, not least because doing so will help with her own defensive works.


Result

Hand in hand with the castle improvements and the increase to the defenses, Esterhold's economy booms. Much of the infrastructure steadily improves, and trade increasingly passes through Esterhold. There's a surprising lack of pushback, and even the Truesworn are seeing more acceptance among the Lyceum, with much of the stigma of their being prodigals fading (for them, at least. For others, not so much.)
