How did you manage to keep 4 families happy? It seemed like every time I set foot out of my family's town, I'd get a cablegram saying "blue husband needs sex badly."

Each of them got a house allowance about five times greater than what they wanted. That was 100gp per day for three of them, and 500gp a day for Lady Grey. 800gp a day was nothing when I was making about 7,000gp every five minutes.

Plus, with four of them, in four different places spread out across Albion, I was pretty much bound to run across each of them over time. I'd take their present, head to bed for a quick roll in the hay, and rush off to my next task.

But mostly I bought them off.

What percentage of the game is keeping your partner sexually satisfied?

She was pretty hot for a dead chick.

What percentage of the game is keeping your partner sexually satisfied?

All told, maybe 1%. Maybe a little more, but it's just one among many many things you can do in the game.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
