SP - UI Campaign Stories & Other

[Lusitani 5th Empire]

I wonder if something like this would be of use and possible to implement. I see great potential in a feature like this.
For example, in VC we had some companions tell us about the story of a place, maybe if it would be possible to do something similar but without interrupting your activity in the campaign, possibly even interacting in some form of dialog, etc.

Create a real Calradia by many short stories. See more from this thread:
