A war averted all too often simply means a war delayed. After a few profitable months, give her the honor of housing a few of the king's own guards to help bolster the regions defenses. If that doesn't break her then let her begin sprucing up local fortifications. If she still is spending send one of the king's more useless relatives for a short visit of a few years. Of course the poor fellow will bring along a retinue, all of which her ladyshgip will be espected to host graciously. If that doesn't break her how about sponsoring the new warship, The Lady of Rhennes. The point is being a noble is not about easy money. Nobility who can accumulate wealth are a direct threat to their peers and especially the monarch. New financial burdens will be shifted to the PC's shoulders as long as possible until she puts a stop to it, doing so of course will require some sort of political influence. Ignore the actual wealth and just have her grateful citizens gift her with the occasional magic item or similar special thing. Unless she becomes a total miser the cost of living will always rise to meet her means.</blockquote>
