Manipulating the internal affairs of the Derians in order to distract the Urceans to the point where taking Dorhaven is achievable is realistic ICly and OOCly. | ICly and OOCly, Heky has a fixation on Talionia.

====Caergwynn==== | |||
Caergwynn has been eying the lands the Fanerians stole in (early 19th century war that undermined the old Republic) and is also worried by Caphirian aggression. The country begins serious war preparations after the invasion of Taliona, and joins the war outright in June of that year, negotiating entry to the alliance from May as Fiannria is desperate for reinforcements-desperate enough to not object to Dol Awraidd taking those lands in compensation for its efforts. | |||

(Idea, altering or possibly replacing the above): | |||
Instead of the original plan for a Caeric-Vithinjan defense pact that draws Vithinja into the war when Caergwynn is attacked, perhaps instead it could be a situation where Vithinja isn't technically obligated to enter (as Caergwynn hasn't been attacked). However, Vithinja follows its Caeric ally in anyway after a few days of indecision, as Caergwynn is still a valued ally, neutrality would not be enough to satisfy the NatCons if they win, and a Faneria that rules all the southern straits would be "a dagger pointed eternally northwards", in the words of the Vithinjan Foreign Minister. | |||
Vithinja doesn't do all that much-maybe this caution is in the wake of the naval disaster mooted above-but it denies Kilikas-access to Caergwynn's enemies and helps them and the rest of the alliance a bit out navally otherwise. | |||
