3) No. If you're just hunting for money or influence, you don't get to interact with the winds in the same way as if you chose option 3. You're making an artwork for the purpose of getting money or power, not to make a political point. It's sort of like Abstract Expressionism: it tends to sell really well to businesses, because the average viewer doesn't say "oh, this is advocating social change," or "oh, war is bad," so it doesn't drive away business. It *does* carry emotional content and messages about art creation, but those things tend not to drive away people who want to spend money.
As a follow-up to this - do we also build some sort of good will the patron chosen, or is this a fully business relationship in which we receive the koku and that's it (if not using Courtier)?

It's a commercial relationship.

Also, would whoever pilots the Sparrow Champion be up for a court side thread on Day 11, or should we punt it?
