Here's another one (or a scenario outline anyway):
Your CA character is visiting an Elmal/Yelmalio village to fill in for the local
CA who has went to seek a shaman for a seriously ill member of the village. One
of the hoplites in the village has been ill for many months after fighting off a
pack of wild broos. He has been close to death for several months.
The wife of the hoplite approaches your CA character, asking if it is likely that
her husband shall live. She then breaks down, confessing that because of her
loneliness during her husband's illness, she strayed with a man during a
festival, and is now pregnant, but not by her husband.
If her husband dies, she will keep the baby.
If her husband lives, and she has the baby, her husband will know that the baby
could not be his. She and her child will be disgraced and outlawed. She doesn't
look like she could survive as an outcast living off the land.
She desparately wants a child (her and her husband have none), but if her husband
is going to live, she feels that she needs to get rid of the child before others
notice her pregnancy. She wants your help in this, but may go somewhere else
(like to a Malia cultist) if you don't help her.
What does the CA character do?
