Should you forgive the Royal Envoy or not in The Sims 4?

At the very end of the Lost Legacies event in The Sims 4, you’re presented with a major choice. This decision asks you to decide whether to forgive the Royal Envoy after you’ve learned the truth about what she’s up to.

You’ve spent the full event uncovering her web of lies and deceit, so when faced with this choice, it’s a pretty big call to make. You may be wondering what happens with each available decision, and which one ultimately has better results, so here’s whether or not you should forgive the Royal Envoy in The Sims 4.

What did the Royal Envoy do in The Sims 4?

Throughout the event, you uncover the truth, which is that the Royal Envoy has been trying to steal from the royal families to pawn off their treasures for money. When you confront her to let her know you’ve learned of her master plan, she’ll ask you to forgive her and let it go, promising to stop now that she’s been caught. You’re then given the choice to either forgive her or report her for her crimes.

What happens if you forgive the Royal Envoy in The Sims 4?

If you choose to forgive the Royal Envoy, she will be very grateful for your choice, and the end event text will display a thankful message from her. Your relationship with her remains unchanged with this choice. Here’s the full message you get for forgiving her.

“Marina, the Envoy, sighs with relief and smiles as they say, ‘Thank you so much, [Your Sim’s Name], for not turning me in. I saw an opportunity and got carried away. Do everyone a favor and look after those treasures. I might pay them a surprise visit one day.’ With that, Marina leaves for now.

What happens if you don’t forgive the Royal Envoy in The Sims 4?

If you choose to report the Royal Envoy, she will be upset at your decision, and the end event text will display a lengthy statement of revenge and anger from her. This won’t affect your relationship with her at all, though, and although she pledges revenge in the future, she won’t actually come back to do anything. Here’s her full statement if you choose not to forgive her.

“Marina, the Envoy, looks in disbelief as [Your Sim’s Name] recounts all the deceit, nefarious plans, and how it will be reported to the royal families. In response, Marina shouts, ‘[Your Sim’s Name], know that I will remember this moment for all eternity. Take advantage while you can; I will have my revenge one day!’ With that, Marina leaves for now, and with all of their plans foiled…”

Should you forgive the Royal Envoy in The Sims 4

There are no real consequences or differences for choosing to forgive the Royal Envoy or not, so which option is best to choose ultimately just comes down to your own personal preferences. All event rewards remain the same regardless, with the only difference being the end event text you see. Even your relationship with the Royal Envoy stays the same no matter what, so the difference between the two is simply a few lines of text that don’t actually affect anything.

When you’re ready to make your choice, you can do so by clicking on the Royal Envoy and selecting either the “Forgive” or “Report Actions” option. Both have the Lost Legacies event icon next to them, making them easier to spot among the available interaction options.

Now that you’ve dealt with the Royal Envoy however you see fit, you can move on to other tasks. Next, you might consider setting out to explore Ondarion and uncovering everything the regal world has to offer, like pulling the sword from the stone and finding the Blacksmith.

One of the early contracts in Marathon requires you to scan the FTL Array at any USEC Radio Tower, and the task can be slightly tricky.

This is likely going to be your first contract where the game doesn’t tell you where you need to be. The task is actually rather simple once you know where you need to reach and be. This guide will simplify the process and allow you to get all the applicable rewards.

How to locate the FTL Array in Marathon

The first task is to receive and keep the contract active. As of writing, only a contract can be kept active at any given time. Once done, start a run. Ideally, I am finding it easier to complete contracts with teammates rather than going solo.

You begin on the Perimeter map since it’s part of the contract. Once the run begins, head to the Station location. While there can be more towers located in other parts of the map, the Station POI was the nearest one for me when I was about to complete this contract.

The Station is pretty easy to locate, but the same can’t be said about the FTL Array on the USEC Radio Tower. If you’re close to the tower, you’ll find the quest icon (yellow colored) appearing on your screen. The tower can be found about E 100 on the overhead compass. However, I have marked the exact location on the image below to make it easier for you. The location isn’t random, and you’ll always find the FTL Array at this location.

Once you’ve located the tower, use one of the attached ladders to climb up. Look for a blue-colored terminal, and it will have an interactable FTL Comms Chip on it. If you’re this close to the tower, you can simply follow the icon as well.

Interact with the FTL Array and complete the scan, and this will complete your contract. Once you end your run, you’ll be able to redeem all the applicable rewards as allotted by the contract.
