Someday in the future, I'd love to see an accounting of all of this. Like a timeline of IC events coupled with their perception by various parties. I really do think this would be amazing. Because from the perspective of the decision makers in Luria, Hireshmont (and a few other factors, to be fair) is the only thing saving D'Hara from the Vesperi treatment.
Look up "third party diplomacy."
Or ask yourself why you hire a realtor.
Sometimes, if you need something done right... you hire someone else to do it because you're way to emotionally invested and will just screw everything up for everyone.
And then NOBODY gets to kill the Vandals.
