I don't know why you would post that now, considering the deal isn't done yet.
I only decided to post it because, in fact, the deal
is essentially done. King Kurohyou accepted the terms, he's just waiting for my diplomat (who has already drafted the treaty and just needs to arrive in Shanandoah.
There was a reason I did place the qualifier of the treaty actually being signed and Shanandoah actually being taken. (I won't call it guaranteed until that
does happen, but between my two Atamaran characters, they've both heard other rulers speaking of Hammarsett formally declaring surrender. Also, Hammard nobles have been moving en masse to BoM.)
