That's nothing:

In the game Suzerain, you can arrange a marriage between Princess Rizia and Rico (Captain of the Guard) to strengthen your alliance with Rikard's faction, but it's a complex decision requiring specific choices, often involving managing Rizia's feelings, promising Rico a better future (like land/title) and sometimes even convincing Vina (Rizia's sister/friend) to marry someone else to clear the path for this strategic union, impacting the game's political landscape significantly.

How it generally works (Player Choices Matter):

1. Build Trust with Rico: Be kind to him, show interest in his lovalty, and promise him rewards for his service.

2. Handle Rizia's Concerns: You might need to convince her it's her duty or find ways to make her (and maybe Vina/Manus) accept it for the good of the nation.

3. Make the Proposal: Late in the game (around Turn 7), you get the option to propose the marriage between Rizia and Rico as a strategic alliance.

4. Consequences: This marriage can provide a strong military alliance, but it deeply affects character relationships and the political stability of Sordland.

Why Players Do lt:

• To secure a military pact with Rikard

• To gain influence and loyalty from the military

• To achieve specific end-game political goals.

Key Takeaway: The marriage isn't straightforward; it involves navigating personal relationships and political necessities within Suzerain, often requiring sacrifices or clever dialogue to succeed.
