I know this is very late of a reply..but I quite honestly would love to start at the fall of room where you are about to die..maybe do the whole your friends are about to backstab you and everything..just right there it will act as a placement test..depending on how long you live and what actions you do will set your goal..once it all falls you and your advisor manage to escape or they are exiled anyways they go to some unknown area where you find a wife..then you establish a city and what not. After that you build up your empire. After the skill analyses and you get married and start up a town or whatever you get the option to learn everything or just what you don't know.
