The new mayor of Shouldice has raised the taxation rate on family incomes from a modest 5% to 45%. He has also raised the tax on bartered goods from 2% to 10%.
Although the Mayor stated he has no need to defend his decisions, as he knows what is best for all the villagers, he has justified his dramatic tax increases with the promise improving the deteriorating state of Shouldice. He has also started posting pictures of himself on the sides of public buildings.
Also to be noted, two carriages have been loaded with copious amounts of water and food. It would not be surprising if a disconcerting amount of villagers set out tomorrow in search of whatever it is they are in search of.
