Who said either of you get Gretchew?
lol.
Yeah, Hireshmont thinks Kale is being rather naive about D'Haran ambitions.
Gretchew would hardly make the difference if we were ever in a position to be able to annex Terran. That's not the motivation. Terran will always have the obligatory defense of the Astrocracies anyways, right? Charter and all that? Phantaria will never be in a position to war Terran ever again.
Besides, a theocratic city-state would be awesome.
Yes, a city state is what I want. A city state that includes Gretchew and, if Hireshmont can find a way to swing it, Vashgew too.
Hireshmont is not about to trust a piece of paper. He trusted the Treaty of the Maroccidens as well and then, when Terran had secessions, D'hara and Barca abandoned Terran. Yeah, Hireshmont is not going to just hand over the food security of Chateau Saffalore to Phantaria, a realm that literally just tried to destroy Terran.
