Now we that we only talk about diplomacy.. how about using our wifes to do more then just arranging feasts and sutch... mabe even give som boost points "like in taxes oor defence" when she is in a certan castel or city... and use her more in faction strategy... maybe even giv her som "tavrenmaiden goosip" like when you speak with a bartinder.
the holle ideer is to make more use of her... now that she is in the game any way....
