A historic shipwreck forces a choice between law, heritage, and a kingdom's survival.
Captain Rostova has discovered the wreck of the 'Golden Griffin' and its treasure.
The wreck is in international waters.
The Republic of Azura claims the treasure as its cultural heritage.
Your kingdom is facing a severe economic crisis.
The Republic of Azura has filed a formal claim, arguing that the 'Golden Griffin' was one of their ships and that the treasure is a vital part of their cultural heritage. They demand the immediate return of all salvaged items and exclusive rights to the wreck. They have threatened to impose a trade embargo on your kingdom if their claim is denied, a move that would be devastating to your already struggling economy.
Captain Rostova argues that the principle of 'finders, keepers' applies. She claims that since the wreck was in international waters, she is entitled to a significant portion of the treasure as a reward for her discovery and the immense risks she took. Her legal counsel argues that your kingdom has the right to claim the treasure, and that it could be used to alleviate the severe economic crisis currently gripping your nation. They argue that the needs of your people should come before the cultural claims of a foreign power.
Your Majesty, you are faced with a decision that has far-reaching consequences. Do you honor the cultural heritage claim of a neighboring nation and risk the economic ruin of your own kingdom? Or do you claim the treasure for your people, defying international pressure and potentially sparking a major conflict?
