— It shall be done, Your Serene Wisdom. Before we begin the task, may I ask you a couple of questions related to the mission set before us?
Serene Wisdom nodded.
— I will start with the most important question. Do we have any secondary objectives that it would be good to achieve?
- I am not interested in additional expansion, but future generations must know that Cortina always repays her debts; what was taken from her must be returned to her. Secondary objectives can be considered gaining recognition from our neighbors of our right to sovereignty and eliminating unpredictable threats.
The liege's answer was brief but clear, and Alaria could not help but agree with the pragmatism of this policy. Conquering new lands carried considerable risks both for Cortina's internal stability and its external image. If the neighbors saw her as an ambitious conqueror — deemed her a threat — then their attitude would change accordingly. And that's not even touching on the issue of human casualties, which it would also be desirable to avoid.
— My second question concerns the achievement of sovereignty. In your opinion, which rulers of Tezoth's regions may have aspirations for their own independence close to ours? In the context of the stated goals, it would be good to secure their support, should such an opportunity arise.
