A King is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to! Take as long as you want to form Kingdom, or Dragon Banner quests, or Folly. Now they won't fail saying "you couldn't complete the quest in 10 years", although it's actually about 835 days.

Changelogs
Version 1.0.3
Game will now crash if the mod isn't loaded after StoryMode module, or if we are otherwise unable to modify the story quests. It was thought that this was better because users are always aware of when the mod has failed, rather than failing silently like before.
Version 1.0.2
Log errors to bannerlord's log file, usually found in C:\ProgramData\Mount and Blade II Bannerlord\logs
Version 1.0.1
Makes us compatible with Community Patch 0.1.0-rc2. Fixed an interaction that would cause the relevant story quests to still timeout.
Version 1.0.0
Initial release. Stop the Dragon Banner related quests from timing out, including the kingdom formation quests.
Usage
You can add it to the game whenever you want. However, if the quests have already failed, it can't bring them back.
Note: Bannerlord 1.0.11 patch actually doesn't fix it (not entirely).
Patch notes:
Fixed the bug that caused main storyline quests in later stages to terminate after 10 years.
However, you still need to Create A Kingdom or Support A Kingdom before 10 years (835 ish days) goes by, as well as anything preceding that, like Neretze's folly or Assemble the Dragon Banner. If you want to have longer to do that, you can use this mod. Myself, I found it was very difficult to create an imperial kingdom inside of 10 years.
Later quests are indeed exempt from the time limit. (Anything including or after Weaken / Unify the Empire).
Installation
Use vortex, and enable the mod in the launcher's mods tab.
Manual install can be done by unzipping the file to your bannerlord's Modules directory.
If the game crashes or can't load the mod, find the file "NoDragonBannerTimeout.dll" and right click -> properties -> click unblock. The file is under bannerlord's install directory in "Modules\NoDragonBannerTimeout\bin\Win64_Shipping_Client\NoDragonBannerTimeout.dll".
It's possible you might also need to do that for the save you put in the saves folder.
Troubleshooting
If the game crashes, make sure you are loading this mod after StoryMode module. If you are, you can try and find the error message in the following ways:
If you are running Community Patch your clipboard will have some good info about the error
Otherwise, try checking the error log in "C:\ProgramData\Mount and Blade II Bannerlord\logs"
Compatibility
Make sure you load it after the StoryMode module. You can find the order of mod loading in your launcher.
Is probably not compatible with other mods that alter the main storyline quests.
Alters the classes StoryMode.Behaviors.FirstPhaseCampaignBehavior in "Modules\StoryMode\bin\Win64_Shipping_Client\StoryMode.dll". Also modifies the 'time remaining' property of certain story line quests.
Testing
You can verify that it works by using the save in the file "before banner quest fails save". Load it without this mod enabled, and see that it will fail the dragon banner quest within 8 days. Then enable the mod and it won't fail anymore.
You can extract the save into "(your documents folder)\Mount and Blade II Bannerlord\Game Saves\Native"
