See, Sint was attempting to force their daimon-worshiping religion on the realm, its nobles demanding priests from other faiths be executed if they preach in our regions (and as we are a multi-religion realm, that wouldn't go over too well), they were attempting to force their laws on us, etc. Indirik was one of those attempting to push for all of that, btw.
Oh baloney. You'll never find any message from Ralina even implying that such should be the case, let alone pushing for it to happen. Ralina was merely asserting the right for Hemaist priests to preach in regions belonging to a theocracy of Hemaism. Victus was freely preaching the Church of Humanity throughout all the lands that would be part of the new colony, and threatened Sint with diplomatic consequences if a priest of Hemaism preached in those same regions.
Only one fanatic said that foreign priests should be beheaded, and no one listened to him.
When I said we would instead realign to Nothoi until we were ready, their leader threw a fit ("SINT IS THE FOUNDING FATHER!!!" Misconstruing the entire treaty involved), as did Indirik who removed her region from the Duchy of Heen because "The treaty says nothing about joining Nothoi!"
If you are going to use quotes, please make sure you accurately, and completely quote what was said:
"I do not desire to join the realm of Nothoi. Such was never the plan for the new colony, or the regions that would be part of the new colony. I, and Watersdown, will stay in Sint until the new realm is formed. At that time, I will join the new realm as is my duty." And, as promised, Watersdown joined the realm as soon as it was founded.
I will admit that Cyprian knows little about the treaty, or what it says. As a new Pontifex who was largely uninvolved in pretty much anything to do with the realm, he is ignorant of quite a few things that previous rulers already knew.
Edit: Also, here is what Cyprian
really said:
"Let's be frank. Whatever you will try to remove Sint infruence in south this is impossible, Lord Victus. We are the founding fathers of the new realm.
Let's calm ourself and speak."Note the complete lack of ALLCAPS, and the absence of any exclamation points.
...and yet the treaty specifically mentions the religious freedoms of our nobles.
Of course. And no one has yet attempted to force any specific religion on any noble.
