"Congratulations," Yennefer said, sounding like she was in no way congratulating her students. "However you did it, you successfully convinced your king not to steal tapestries from a noble. However, he still wants new tapestries to hang in the Great Hall. Freshen the place up a bit. Problem: tapestries are expensive. Solution: levy a new tax to pay for them! New problem: the peasantry is, if not overtaxed, definitely heavily taxed, and all reports indicate the harvest will be bad, due to...various weather conditions, don't worry about that. Perhaps redecorating is not what we should be spending the people's money on right now? Just a thought. That you may wish to convince His Majesty of."
