Yet, none of you had been threatened by Kabrinskia about using the Zuma against Your own kingdoms.
While this is strictly true, the northern realms have, actually, been on the receiving end of a Zuma expedition. Someone (most likely someone in the Veinsormoot) leaked internal SA messages to the Zuma, who came screaming up to "investigate" Iashalur. Son in a sense, we *were* on the receiving end of a human realm trying to use the Zuma as a weapon.
Some fast talking managed to salvage the situation, and actually turn it into a positive. But still, we rallied our armies to do battle with the Zuma. As unprepared as we were, we had no intention of backing down from the fight.
(And, also, we are aware of certain persons who are still attempting to get the Zuma to attack the collection of SA theocracies. And no, I will not supply details.
