GoodDetails
  • Reaver will organize the rebuilding of Aurora, and the citizens will move back in and open up shops and businesses in the city. Aurora becomes a free state of Albion, and Kalin is pleased you kept your promise.
  • A fortified outpost will be built in Shifting Sands under the arch. A few chests will become available within.
  • The Academy will be opened free of charge for anyone who wishes to learn there.
  • The lands of Mistpeak will be returned to the Dwellers, and all of Logan's policies there will be reverted. Sabine will pledge his support to you always.
  • Reaver will organize the rebuilding of the Old Quarter, and any homes and business you owned before the revolution will be restored. Any uncompleted quests in the district will also be available again.
  • This has no particular benefits or drawbacks aside from the views of the servants and visitors. This design will improve the mood of everyone who visits and works in the castle.
  • Ferret will stay locked in the cell, supposedly forever.
  • Bower Lake will become an area protected by the crown to preserve its natural beauty.
  • Reaver will turn the front section of the factory into a school, and many of the children in Industrial will attend.
  • Reaver will renovate the shelter and orphanage, which will improve the conditions and quality of life for the homeless people of Bowerstone.
  • One of the factories near the docks will be converted into a sewage works. There will be a noticeable improvement in the water and air quality in Industrial. Mourningwood will be unchanged.

EvilDetails
  • Reaver will reopen Aurora's old mine, and the citizens will be forced to work in it to pay for their inclusion in the kingdom. Aurora is annexed as a colony of Albion, and you lose your support from Kalin.
  • The Old Quarter will become a historic site, left as a monument to the victory over Logan. Only a few houses will still be intact, and any quests previously found there will be permanently closed.
  • This has no particular benefits or drawbacks aside from the views of the servants and visitors. This design will cause most people who visit and work in the castle to be upset and fearful most of the time.
  • Reaver will reinstate his child labour policy, and you will suffer a heavy blow to your support from Page.
  • Reaver will convert the shelter into a brothel, which will unlock the Whorezone quest. Orphans will still be adoptable from outside the building.
  • The Academy will be opened, and anyone who wants to learn will be charged a tuition fee.
  • Reaver will drain Bower Lake and open a quarry, and Millfields Mines will become available.
  • Ferret will be released, and you will receive 100,000 gold.
  • Shifting Sands will remain unchanged. The forces currently stationed in the City of Aurora will be deemed sufficient protection.
  • Reaver will open a logging camp in Mistpeak to increase kingdom resources, and Logan's policies there will be extended. Sabine will say you have made a new enemy today.
  • All of Bowerstone's sewage will be piped into Mourningwood. The water level around the Eco-Village will rise, and there will be an obvious decrease in the air quality around the village.
