When you are running a kingdom, it is important to _be_ important.

Do not let anyone talk down to you. For example, I had a servant who always made a disgusted face and held the platter of sandwiches as far from them as they could as they brought out breakfast. If your own staff is disgusted by your choices, you should not keep them around. I sentenced their execution swiftly and did not heed their, “allergy to peanuts” excuse.

Executions are another example of power you can wield. Many monarchs these days are far too afraid of enraging their own populace. You must gather your courage and make your own decisions.

If they do not agree? Simple. Hold another execution!
