Gotta love that Vix/Perdanese spindoctoring though.
Besides, at this point Perdan is at a really bad place diplomatically. They've allied themselves to two realms that have no qualms about rape and murder, while also getting themselves bogged down in a war as Sirion has finished quelling Oligarch's rebellion. It basically leaves their back door open for Sirion and friends to reduce a potential threat like Perdan have been trying to do to Greater Xavax.
