Have the torturers tortured with exactly what they did to the terrorists, nothing more, nothing less. Then serve them tea and crumpets and send them on their way.
...not sure what else I can do for now, all my plot points have kinda dried up. Building the alabaster dome has obviously started, assumably with no hitches.
Torturers die and the building of the dome continues.
Tell you what, have my members of parliament (a redundant feature considering we're a monarchy) go to their constituancies and find out how the people are, what worries them, and what they think I'm doing right. General feedback. And prepare some bobbies with rifles in case they're nasty to me.
Your representatives find nothing out of the ordinary with the people.
I have my men pull back a bit and try to simply contain the madness until it dies down a bit.
Half of your forces within the city are caught by rebel forces or are lynched by the crowd. The other half have set up checkpoints outside the city and are just barely holding off the crowd.
Okay, I funnel money into our homicide division, hire the best genius detectives from other lands, and impose a curfew and offer govenment-sponsored home security systems at a cheap price.
I also increase the alertness of the police force, and place extra security in schools.
That should do it.
The foreign detectives drain you’re treasury with no results. The people begin to panic and are forming vigilante squads and neighbourhood watch programs.
Also, I just want it noted that after Ron Livingston left his hotel room I had some people collect discarded hair samples and stored them in a secret base thing.
Nothing was found, Ron Livingston must have somehow known of you’re malign plans.
Firstly, I ensure that the media's full attention is drawn to the protests. Then, I order several car bombs to be set off in the middle of the protests, and claim that they were the terrorist acts of a neaby weak nation threatened by our strength.
The cars could not make it into the middle of the crowd, they only managed to kill the people on the outer rim, this has caused the protestors to riot.
Also, just incase the people aren't convinced it was them, I order the capture of some men from that country and have them tortured until they confess to masterminding them. Then promptly have them executed for treason.
The people don’t care who did it. If you did it then they believe you should be punished. If someone else did it then they believe you are unable to protect them and should be overthrown.
I am appeased temporarily, but watch to see if he starts getting enough followers to become a true threat to the natural order ordained by Stenya.
As you concentrate on him a more serious threat emerges. An underground cult calling themselves ‘the Heirs of Stenya’ has assassinated one of your ministers and broadcasting their actions with pamphlets.
