Re: The Mead Hall (OOC Chat)
Excellent, then I do believe there's little concern about overlap there! Walter is very much a social butterfly. That said, he'd certainly want to get lessons about stewardship once he gets a manor, so expect letters!
As an aside might I suggest the advantage that gives you an iron mine? Fits well with what you're looking at, plus I've never found money to be rather hard to get/very handy.
A map would be lovely!
And as I've offered to everyone else, let's tie our characters together! I know your backstory is a bit malleable right now, but let me know once it's firmed up and we'll figure something out!
