Dominic went to the coffee pot and made sure that it was full before pouring himself a cup.
"You know, this whole conflict has been a mess. Everywhere in Cygnia has been infiltrated with Dagos spies and loyalists, to the point that I wouldn't be surprised if half the ones turning in the traitors were actually also working for a Dagos Noble on the side.
How much money have they dumped into Cygnia to make this possible?" He asked.
Pops chuckled. "Probably more than they could afford, now that it looks like they're on the losing side of the war. War debts are known to cripple a losing nation for a generation.
Now, what Cygnia is asking for isn't large, compared to most such situations. The region they want has three major cities, but it's an unstable region that takes a significant military force to keep under control.
Being able to retreat from the province will probably be the difference between Dagos collapsing during the succession struggle and thriving within a decade."
