Then the next plan of Brock would have see Selenia's Xavax gain OI lands along with 2 duchies from Nivemus. I have to admit Nivemus success is overwhelming its development at same time. No thanks to Brock predecessor Kronagos Lady Catherine who won Duchy of Kazakh from OI through War, while current Kronogos Brock won the Duchy of Kalmar through Diplomacy. If each Nivemus Ruler win a duchy each, then this must be our precedent for future Ruler. in order to bring that Xavax plan to fruition, Brock not only have to convince his realm Dukes(Dukes are really powerful nowadays) of his plans. Of course Garas hears the short stick of it, Brock did not intend to share everything with someone who has been proven to insult Brock in battles with SA down south recently. So Garas is free to presume what he will. This plan would have seen OI return to play a major role as well if they wish to combine with Nivemus 2 duchies. But OI wish to play good with Perdan, who is now reduced. Oh well, plans never go accordingly, do they? 
Gaining duchies is all good and well, but was has it truly added to the island, or to Nivemus? Last time I heard people, and I think even you, complain that you had too few nobles and that Nivemus was a silent realm and somewhat boring. Even the Xavax who joined your realm said so. For me gaining region is the least important job of a ruler, but that's maybe also why my realm is dead and yours is not...
And my point was not that you have no plans, my point was that it takes so long that I stopped counting on Nivemus and Sirion for anything on this island. You were saying that it was time for Brock to step down and to create a new realm from Nivemus well over a year, maybe even 2 years ago already. I don't have time to delve into this forum, but you might have even stated such here and otherwise you most certainly did so ingame. Yet here we are, and still there are only plans which don't even seem close to executing, so you tell me if my scepticism is warranted or not.
The Xavax in the meantime are still waiting, while everyone is offering them a new realm, they're left with nothing so far.
