The latest patch for the kingdom simulation game Nobles Fates is here. The Love and Elves Update features elves and the new marriage system.
Elves have come from far away lands to introduce the custom of marriage in Noble Fates. Elves are a patient race that can live twice as long as humans and orcs. Although they do not have beef with humans, they dislike spending time with orcs. This noble race is quite adept at hunting and crafting. However, they’re not suited for melee combat due to their smaller frame.
Marriage System
As ruler of the kingdom, you will be the one to arrange a wedding between two mortals. You can either have an enamored pair solidify their love by marrying each other or arrange a one-sided marriage to keep a noble happy. The choice is entirely up to you.
Take note that marriages in Noble Fates last until one of the partners dies. This is why choosing the right partner for a mortal is important.
