Festival of Flowers

This is festival that happens in the spring. It occurs on the 3rd week of May and gives the Princess the opportunity to increase one of the four key reputations through four corresponding activities. Each activity will test the Princess's abilities through stat checks, the highest check always being 20. If you are aiming for a particular reputation gain, it is recommended that you plan your training accordingly. Otherwise, it is best to pick the one your princess is most likely to pass.

Festival activities:
The Tea Ceremony: The tea ceremony will test the princess's Etiquette and Conversation skills. Passing all the checks will reward Social reputation.

Dueling: Dueling tests the princess's Offence and Defense skills. Your first opponent will require a 10 in those skills to defeat, followed by a 20 for the second. Your third opponent is Evette. Her attack requires a 30 in defense. Doable, though you still earn her favor if you fail. Defeating your first two opponents will reward Combat reputation.

The Trial of Wisdom: The trial of wisdom tests the princess's Knowledge and Wisdom skills. Failing the last check is all but guaranteed in the first year, as the last check requires Wisdom 100, though it can be tried and failed without consequence. Passing all but the last check will reward Political reputation.

The Athletics Competition: The athletics competition tests the princess's Fitness and Strength skills. Passing all the checks will reward Sexual reputation.

Festival Speech
After the princess has finished the festival's activity, the Vizier will tell her to go on stage and speak to the people. During this speech, however, the Vizier will sneak up behind her and pull down her dress, baring her breasts to the crowd. The princess will cover herself while the public jeers at her, and then run off the stage. When talking to the player's character about it, the player has the option to convince the Princess to either go along with the Vizier's antics or dismiss him entirely. Dismissing him will lead to other trainers taking his place, while keeping him around will take the Princess down his route.
