It’s impossible to argue with that. Making the city a monument to her narcissism is literally her platform :P
Though I rather like her narcissism, so…

Heh, well said. And if we do end up with an even more magnificent city to be the envy of the Neath just to feed her vanity, then so much the better. A win-win in my book.

I love it when she comes to my parties! ^_^
Who wouldn’t want to make London one big party with her?
Also, the Mayoral Mansion is in desperate need of a redesign after Feducci’s godawful alterations.

Hear hear!
(in-character election plea. write your own, too!)
No, this will not do. The Princess already holds half the aristocracy around her little finger. The sheer concentration of power would be enormous. No one would have enough clout to oppose her.
Do you want to be slaves, helplessly dancing to the Aristocracy’s tune?
Do you want to be entirely powerless in the face of whatever weird plans she may have for the City?
Only a reasonable, sensible, capable man of the people with his heart in the right place can build a better City. It is time to struggle to establish the rule of Justice.
Vote for the Jovial Contrarian!

Away with your respectable spits Middle Class politics!
I’m just thinking of this, but in some people’s London, she’s married to our current mayor. Wouldn’t voting her in be like giving him a second term?

This is an echo about what she plans for London: http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Den%20Blackwell?fromEchoId=14265878
She’s basically Feducci except with art rather than duels/gambling. Given that I helped the two of them marry, this may not be a coincidence.

I’m confident the writers have figured out how to make that work.

They probably do, I just don’t want to help him out at all. He made the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner tear up last year. I can’t forgive him for that.

Well, if you broke up the wedding then Feducci would arguably be more miserable seeing her become Mayor!

I helped them through the marriage. I was hoping they’d make each other miserable.

Ah.
Well then, you probably should oppose her, absent clear evidence that her winning would make her husband unhappy.
It’s a little too late to wish Feducci would not help the Princess. Her item is a Jar of Bees (the tear drinker type) and she apparently got them from Feducci…
Doesn’t everyone given the Princess presents though?
Also, those bees would look really fetching with my tapestry and tiger…
Well… this is the description text for the option that gives you the item…
The Captivating Princess is donating a gift from Feducci to her supporters. Tear-drinking bees from the fabled Elder Continent kingdom of Huz.
Somehow I don’t think this is just any old gift she was given…

Though it has very different meanings depending on whether the marriage happened or not.
If you broke up the wedding, the implications of that gift are just delightful.
Oh, I am so on this… clears throat
London was once the crown jewel in the tiara that was the most magnificent empire the world has ever seen. We were the envy of the known world, the very definition of history in the making.
That was until we fell from grace, to end up lost and adrift in this dark realm of monsters, mushrooms, and mangy rats.
But like a flame shines brightest in the darkness, so too can we become the best and most brilliant that we have ever dare imagine ourselves to be.
Gone may be the days of sunshine and a far-spanning empire, but should we be content to merely wallow in lost dreams of nostalgia of what we once had?
No, my exceptional ladies and gentlemen - and anyone in-between - we now have a new opportunity before us that glows as brightly as the sun we left behind.
I say that now is the time to dare to dream of the pinnacle that is what London could really be. Not merely the capital of a now lost empire, but a power of splendour and glory unto herself. A city truly worth the exceptional lives and extraordinary character of her people.
We, the proud citizens of London, can make this city the pride and envy of a whole new world - the Neath, a world of delights hitherto undreamed of and wonders that even the most enterprising amongst us would once have thought an impossibility.
But to truly achieve this golden future for ourselves we need someone to take that very first step towards a more wondrous tomorrow.
And no one less than our beloved and Captivating Princess has with both grace and dignity taken it upon herself to step forward to herald this glorious dream.
But even someone as exceptional and visionary as our princess cannot undertake such a grand enterprise alone. This city is all of our home, and only together can we bring this dream for our fair city to fruition!
So I beseech you, my friends and fellow citizens, to come forth to show your patriotic fervour, to do your civic duty in the name of London herself, and vote for the Captivating Princess!

Feducci called. He wants his campaign back.
