That's awesome that you found the easter egg! The main goal of the game is to gather these 100 crowns to pay for your son's tuition! That's your "countdown"
Ah my bad! It might be cool to have it show as a progress bar to tuition or some kind of check list strike through then you could add stretch goals for continuing to play that keep with the medieval theme like "Pay for sons X" etc that add as you complete them
