DiegodelAlhambraYou are on the archive wiki. The new wiki is here. DiegodelAlhambraSaint Mauritz is really fine at this time of year. Your girlfriend Jeanne is in Barbados just now, and that's why you'd rather be in Saint Mauritz. You're going to meet a couple of babes you met in Cannes last season. You also need to get out of here because this Congress is likely to cause your final split with your ever-lovin' Dad. DonManueldelAlhambra, your Dad, though you call him 'Sir' to his face, got you the job of Treasurer to his awful fogey LiberalAcademicRevolutionaryParty? at last year's Congress. It's not what you want to do. He sees a bright future for you in the politics of the RepublicOfGuevarian?. You just want to chat up girls in Saint Mauritz. But it wasn't too difficult a job for the year you've done it. And you have no doubt at all that you won't get the job again. You see, by coincidence on the day of the coup, they held the $100 000 Ancuna Championship Stakes. You had a sure tip. So you bet the entire treasury of the party on the horse. And you lost. So the LiberalAcademicRevolutionaryParty? is bankrupt. The party doesn't know this yet, and with a real piece of luck maybe they, and Dad, never will. Obviously you'll have to find some replacement cash. But you have a hold on some of the other delegates and you might well be able to convince them to make a private donation. You've heard that ForeignGovernments? or the UN might be able to provide humanitarian aid to starving peasants in the RepublicOfGuevaria?. There's a rumour going around that some old IncaGold? was dug up on land belonging to some peasant - if this is true you might persuade the RevolutionaryConvention to donate it to the party. Whatever. Your job here is to fill the treasury, ditch the job and your Dad and get back to having fun in Saint Mauritz. Motivations at a glance
