Chapter 3 Walkthrough — The Life and Suffering of Prince Jerian

Chapter 3 marks mid-game escalation. Emperor Utter II's absence triggers "Where is Uther?" — Jerian performs imperial duties publicly while coup rumors swirl around Monrog and Milanidas houses.

Where is Uther? (1134)

Utter absent from Unification Day and Scraid tribute. Jerian stands in publicly — authenticity of heir questioned. Court silence fuels rebellion parameter growth if estate loyalty weak.

Crisis of Dogma

Patriarchs seek clergy criminal jurisdiction. Three paths: grant church courts (Dogma + clergy loyalty), refuse patriarchs, or refuse while empowering Prefecture (Law + secular estates).

Crisis of Traditions

Orgrif and Milanid restrict university holy site research. Support scholars (Progress + Scholarship), expand research (aggressive reform), or forbid (Tradition + Great Houses).

Fracture

Jerian internalizes a major mistake — potential Reason loss trigger. Review personality consistency before this scene if Reason is low.
