El Dorado[edit | edit source]

Msg event.pngEl Dorado


An adventurer on his death bed told a tale about a gold covered king who washed the gold off while his attendants threw trinkets of gold and precious stones into the lake. The man claimed to have been rescued by El Hombre Dorado himself and seen the ritual and the golden city with his own eyes. Before he fell ill, he made a crude map that he claims shows the way to El Dorado. Now when we have arrived in $PROVINCENAME$, a landmark corresponds to one of the few roughly drawn on the adventurer's map.

Msg event.pngEl Dorado - a myth


Years of struggle - or so it must have felt - have yielded next to nothing! The conquistador has given up the quest for El Dorado, claiming that the city of gold is nothing but myth and legend. A few provinces found, a few natives pleased with baubles and trinkets - but no gold, no diamonds, and certainly not a city with streets laden with gold.

Msg event.pngEl Dorado - City Under Water


Lake Guatavita is rumored to be the lake where the Golden King washes off the gold dust he is covered with in a ritual that stretches over several days. Several trinkets made of gold and covered in precious stones have been found in the water, and our conquistador has started an ambitious project: Try and drain the lake by using a 'bucket chain' of laborers. Though they have worked tirelessly for three months, the water level has only been reduced by ten feet, and only a small amount of gold has been recovered.

Msg event.pngFountain of Youth


Tales of a fountain that brings eternal youth to anyone who bathes in its waters or drinks from it have long been known. Some have always rejected this idea, while others have searched for it to no avail. We will be successful in finding the Water of Life, this Fountain of Youth, simply because we found someone in $PROVINCENAME$ who has seen it and is willing to take us there - for a price, of course.

Msg event.pngFountain of Youth - Death by Water


After many months of trekking through provinces filled with poisonous plants, venomous snakes, frogs and insects, dangerous animals of all kinds and sizes, the puddle in $PROVINCENAME$ known as the Fountain of Youth was finally found. Its water is muddy brown and it is cursed with a stench that could awaken even the dead. Only one brave soul volunteered to drink from the Water of Life and his body was buried the day after, ravaged by diarrhoea and violent heaves.

Msg event.pngFountain of Youth - Refreshing Water


A small waterfall feeds into the Fountain of Youth in $PROVINCENAME$, whose bright blue, crystal-clear water looks almost as good as it tastes. Our weary expedition members claim that bathing in the water refreshed them both physically and mentally, clearing most of the tiredness and all of the grime from their minds and bodies. But it did not last long, only hours after their baths the tiredness was back, and water brought in canteens from the lake only quenched their thirst.

Msg event.pngFountain of Youth - True Water of Life


Wrinkles faded away, eyesights improved, gout disappeared and troubled minds finally found peace. Water sweeter than nectar, clearer than any cut diamond, and more well-guarded than the crown jewels of any country - but now it is ours: The Fountain of Youth! Be careful though, as imbibing in the precious water might cause some... unforeseen side effects. Too much of the good stuff and all that.

Cibola[edit | edit source]

Msg event.pngCibola


A scout sent ahead returned with news about Cibola, one of the Seven Cities of Gold. He had met a monk who had heard stories from the natives of $PROVINCENAME$ about a city overflowing with riches. Its people decorated their houses with turquoise, used dishes of gold and silver, and had gigantic pearls, emeralds, and other beautiful gems.

Msg event.pngCibola - The Monk's Lies


The small city with ramshackle adobes and dirty streets, nothing like the houses made of gold and streets paved with precious stones described to us, met our conquistador and the expedition when they finally reached 'Cibola' in $PROVINCENAME$. The monk tried to stutter an explanation, about seeing the city in a different light - perhaps a sunset would paint it golden? But nothing he said could quell the rage and disappointment everyone felt.

There was some gold, and a few precious stones, but it was fiercely guarded by the natives of $PROVINCENAME$. The monk who led us to 'Cibola' disappeared not long after the discovery, and most of the gold with him. Some trinkets and gold dust was recovered, not nearly enough to give Cibola the reputation as one of the Seven Cities of Gold.

Wealth comes in many different packages and ways - some claim that the wealth of heart is to be desired, others that piety and prestige should be the only wealth in life. Gold and precious stones is the only wealth our heart desires, and the Golden City of Cibola in $PROVINCENAME$ has made this desire grow fiercely. For every ounce of gold, for every handful of gems we want more and Cibola keeps on giving. One of the Seven Cities of Gold is ours, and we intend to keep it.

Everything that glimmers is not gold - something our conquistador learned the hard way.

Sadly, the 'gold' was mere pyrite and the 'diamonds' were quartz.

The White King rules the region where the Silver Mountains can be found, or so the crew rescued from a shipwreck claims. While being shipwrecked in $PROVINCENAME$, they became friendly with the natives who told them about a great mountain of shining metals, too far into the mainland to reach for many days, if not weeks. The metals they brought give a corn of truth to this legend, and they have offered to join us in a search for the Sierra de la Plata - the Silver Mountains.

Msg event.pngNorumbega


A French navigator reported that he had found a great river, more than 40 leagues wide and full of islands. According to his notes, fifteen leagues within this river there is a town called Norumbega, with clever inhabitants who trade in furs of all sorts. They are dressed in furs and wearing sable, with a language similar to Latin. These tall and handsome people worship the sun. The town is very rich and there must be a source for the gold most of the people were wearing as jewelry.

The people of Norumbega are tall, clever and handsome, with a language which shares a lot of words with Latin. We had hoped for a small town with some gold and furs, but Norumbega far exceeded all our expectations with its rich land, gold mine, and fur trade. It is an old Viking settlement, so much have we gathered from the people, and they are willing to trade with us. The gold mine seems to contain an endless stream of gold and as long as we provide our own work force, we are allowed to mine it.

There have been rumors about a kingdom in the north of the Americas ruled by white, blond men whose treasury is overflowing of gold, silver and rubies. An explorer, his fleet frozen in the mouth of a river, spent a winter in $PROVINCENAME$ and was told about the Kingdom of Saguenay by the natives. With signs and gestures towards his gold-and-silver insignia the natives relayed that precious metals came from the northwest, from a tribe most aggressive and warmongering. They are as white of skin as the explorer himself, and clad similar. The inhabitants of Saguenay are a numerous people, law abiding and wealthy.

Msg event.pngHoax by Indians - Saguenay


As the expedition neared its destination - the legendary Kingdom of Saguenay, on par with any of the Seven Cities of Gold - El Dorado included - the anticipation grew with every step. Silver mines, ruby mines and gold mines - the mere thought of the treasures awaiting made most of the crew salivate. The first sight was a palisade encircling the town and smiles of greed was plastered on every face. These were soon exchanged for looks of disbeliefs and hearts turning to stone in their chests. The inhabitants were not white, were not clad in similar clothes to us and were certainly not wealthy. It was yet another tribe of natives, with more riches than most but this was no City of Gold.

The expedition was greeted with great hospitality by the white inhabitants of the Kingdom of Saguenay.

Gold, silver and ruby mines were soon found and tribes around became interested in their findings, leading the Saguenais to build up a reputation as fierce and brutal warriors. They reluctantly shared their wealth with us after we showed our superiority with guns and swords.

Msg event.pngThe Death of a Conquistador


The expedition sent forth a scout with the instructions of sending back crosses to the main party with the size of the cross equal to the wealth discovered. Soon, a cross as tall as a person arrived and the main party picked up their pace, scenting their prize. As they entered a large settlement in $PROVINCENAME$, they found that the natives had killed the scout and were waiting for the rest of the party. Most fell to the savages, but a desperate few managed to escape. They tell us that the conquistador was one of the first to die, and that the scout was to blame. He had offered a gift of a gourd with a red feather, which turned out to be the natives' symbol for war.

Msg event.pngAttacked by Natives


Tragic news: our conquistador is dead! The expedition was traveling upriver by canoe when they encountered natives. The warlike tribe demanded that they come ashore and some of the men complied. They were disarmed and stripped naked, something our conquistador objected to. He refused the orders and died riddled with bullets. The expedition members saw his body brought ashore and hacked to pieces. Only one survived, who was told to leave and run. The natives pursued him and he ran for his life. Naked, exhausted and bleeding, the survivor had only one assailant pursuing him after several miles. He managed to overcome the lone man and found shelter in $PROVINCENAME$.

Msg event.pngLost in Mind and Space


We should have realized that our conquistador had no sense of orientation at all the first two times he got lost. The first time, he went to retrieve two of our pack horses and got lost for sixteen days. If it hadn't been for some grapes and rabbits, he would have starved. He later told us that he thought he was behind the expedition and sped up to catch up with it, then he got hungry so he went downstream to look for a trading party. The expedition sent their best hunter to find him and were finally reunited with him. The second time he explored one of three forks of a river and disappeared for three days. Once again the expedition sent the seasoned hunter to find him and he told a tale of trying to backtrack the forks and following our trails. This made the crew decide that the conquistador would not be left alone to discover more parts of $PROVINCENAME$, but that still did not help. Only mere minutes later he was gone again.

A big, black dog by the name of Seaman had accompanied the expedition from the start, and had experienced many adventures. A beaver had bit him so badly that the expedition's doctor had to perform surgery on his hind leg. Mosquitoes plagued the expedition and the dog had howled with the torture experienced by them. Natives in $PROVINCENAME$ had stolen Seaman but he was retrieved shortly. Our conquistador has grown fond of the dog and would be devastated if anything happened to him.

The [Root.Owner.GetName] and [rival_tribe.GetName] tribes are rivals, something our conquistador didn't realize until too late. They both demanded tribute from the expedition to allow them passage. By offering one native chief gifts first, our conquistador insulted and angered the other chief. The gifts offered were not to the chiefs' satisfaction and some warriors tried to take the expedition's provisions. The conquistador took a firm stand, and he and his second in command brandished their swords and threatened violence. The chiefs backed down and better gifts were presented to them both.

With a diet consisting mostly of cured and salted meat and dried grains, the malaise and lethargy should have been the first symptoms recognized as scurvy, but it was not until gums started bleeding and teeth falling out that we realized we had to do something to save our expedition members. As they are exploring provinces that have an unknown flora and fauna to us, it would be unwise to eat anything as it could be poisonous. Maybe we should try to establish contact with the natives of $PROVINCENAME$ and ask for their help?

Msg event.pngThe Survivor


The expedition started with 600 men, but only four made it home alive. When they first arrived, the crew heard about another expedition where 450 of 600 men had perished. Fearing that they would face the same fate, many deserted. A hurricane struck the expedition not long after, and several men perished. Disaster after disaster struck the expedition, famine, disease and attacks from the natives. One of the four who returned home was Estevanico, a black slave born in Africa, who was taught by the conquistador the necessary skills to lead an expedition. He is available for hire, although we would suffer a small prestige hit if we appoint him our new conquistador.

Msg event.pngAbandoned Mounds


From a distance, our conquistadors thought them to be mere hills standing among the otherwise empty plain in $PROVINCENAME$. But as we drew nearer, an enterprising fellow in the company noticed how regular they were, and he soon pointed out to his companions that they must be the remnants of the great pyramids of an ancient people.

Msg event.pngNothing but dirt


They were nothing but mere hills, that 'enterprising fellow' who thought them to be remnants of the great pyramids of an ancient people was wrong. Dirt was all the expedition found.

Msg event.pngMeager amount of Gold


The hills were the remnants of the great pyramids of an ancient people and the expedition found some gold in all that dirt. Although the expedition crew believed this to be a waste of time, and we do agree.

Msg event.pngHic Sunt Dracones


The paint on the great rock that dominates the river is almost faded, but the six-legged, monster it displays is still visible. Our natives tell us a fanciful tale of a dragon-like monster slain by their ancestors, but some of them confusedly insist the painting to be a warning that we should not head further. What is certain is that all of our native guides insist on discharging their weapons at the painted figure as we pass by it.

Msg event.pngA Most Deadly lake


The natives whisper and throw evil glances toward the still water. They say that there is a spirit there, in the form of a great serpent or monster. They claim that this spirit ambushes canoes on the surface, pulling them to a watery grave. It may not be the work of monsters, but perhaps it would be wise to go the long way around?

Msg event.pngThe Cannibal Conquistador of [long_pig_country.GetName]


[long_pig_country.GetName]'s conquistador has admitted that their expedition members ate human flesh! They tried to defend themselves by claiming that they had no idea what kind of meat they were offered by their host tribe, and that the name they were given had translated to 'long pig'.
