This is the stupidest argument. LN hasn't mounted a serious campaign into D'Hara in months. Partly because it really sucks to lose half your CS to starvation, partly because nobody likes Bipel, while the opinion on D'Hara is more nuanced, and partly because it's serious about honoring the proposal that Morek and Iashalur lobbied for. It is possible to roflstomp the Sallowcape. It'll just be expensive, messy, and a proposition without value, like conquering Russia after the Russians have turned hundreds of miles into a charred wasteland. Props to D'Hara for clever diplomatic maneuvering early on. Props to LN for heading it off. Are we done propagandizing now?

Luria Nova and Solaria launched a sneak attack against D'Hara, in our moment of greatest weakness. And we held them back!

You'll just have to accept that we don't care why you failed. We are very jealous of our lands, and this is just another trophy to add to our walls to allow us to gloat about how we crushed every single attempt to steal our lands. Despite all of the squatters and foreign realms taking chunks of our lands, we remain intact. Despite all of the people envious of our isles, the only thing that ever manages to dent us is starvation, and we recover every time. And if York's starvation is of any revelation, seems like the starvation code was dramatically softened. Many people may die, but starvation will appear to no longer cause quasi instant revolt.
