Story

Pan's life story reads like an abridged version of the empire's own recent history. Pan learned from a young age exactly what matters in a royal court as a palace attendant. His careful and often wise judgments earned him a place of respect that might have endured til this day. Sadly, his rare title of "Royal Advisor" was not meant to last.

Pan and his king experienced disaster after disaster, starting with the Cesares Rebellion and ending in the fall of the royal house and splintering of the empire into fiefdoms. Only Pan's great reputation helped him land an appointment to run the border town of Noba. But not even Pan could save Noba from itself. While Noba's peasants roamed in search of food, its nobles ate away at its wealth until there was nothing left but them and the have-nots.

Pan survived this period all the more convinced this was not the way forward for his town or any town. Only a rejection of oppression and a heartfelt embrace of commoners could make a town truly great. It was not an easy decision, but eventually Pan left Noba to forge his own oasis of justice in the wilderness: Marigold. Marigold would try to rebuild what the old Empire had discarded, starting with basic infrastructure like the old kingdom waystations in disrepair. Marigold would be different. While other towns covet the wealthy, Marigold sees value only in diligence and hard work. Respect for the land and your fellow citizens counts in Marigold far more than noble blood. Some call Pan a hopeless idealist who is actually endangering his people with such lofty goals. Rather engaging with his critics, Pan wants to let Marigold's near-utopian record speak for itself.

The lesson that Pan learned is the peace and stability of the royal era cannot be revived by an governor order or aristocratic help. It can only come about when a just and fair system inspires a generation of townsfolk. And this is the real secret of Marigold's success.

Affinity

Affinity levels run from 1 to 100 and are raised with Journey and gifts. Every 10 levels advances relationship status for Master Emblems and adds a larger squad bonus. Affinity 100 unlocks Special Research.

Affinity levelsLevels 1–100 · cost, advancement & stats

Affinity is the Journey cost to advance from that level to the next (level 0 is the settle/invite cost). Advancement is Master Emblems spent when relationship status increases (levels 10, 20, …, 100). Stats are total squad bonuses at that level.

Global progress buff: Squad Lethality grows with every research click (shown in-game above Path Stats). Completing all paths grants Squad Lethality +32.0%. Path Stats milestones (troop or squad bonuses every 20 levels) are separate.

How research works

Unlocks at Affinity Level 100.
Each research spends Master Emblems and raises research level by 1.
Every 20 research levels unlocks a milestone buff (10 milestones per path, fewer on partial paths).
Paths for this master: Experienced → Adequate → Proficient → Peerless → Masterful. Milestone order differs by path so totals land on different stats first.
Research also adds Research Power used for some later upgrade gates.
This master has two research trees: tree 1 uses 10 Emblems per research; tree 2 (levels 601+) uses 20 Emblems per research.
Each research also raises a global progress buff (Squad Lethality), up to +32.0% at full research. Path Stats milestones are separate.
