While communications entered and left the chancellery, Lùcia grew restless. The Duke de Montségur was putting no small amount of pressure on her and her collegues. Looking at his recent promotion, he also had the backing of Pope Francis I. Even if Petros had said so before, this was the first public sign. And a clear warning for her. She adressed @Mach Twelve and @Robban204 .
"Your Excellencies, I have received the reply of the Duke de Montségur. He will not back the proposal. Furthermore, Pope Francis I has named him Viceroy of Cusco, effectively blocking any plan of this sort. We should therefore put the matter to rest. Quito however, would still be a nice addition to our colonies, even if we wouldn't trade those territories with the Cusco tribe. Given these circumstances, I have edited our plans for His Imperial Majesty. Would I have your support for this change?"
[[
- Use 3 diplomats to improve relations with subjects and allies, when it maxes out, recall diplomat and send to next country, country order is up to the Emperor
- Do not declare war due to low manpower, wait until reserves are at least 80% max (10-12 years)
- Exception: Declare war on Quito, but take no military action ourselves and have the colonies occupy the territory. Full annexation.
- Do not concede to any rebel demands, kill all rebels, reoccupy all provinces
- Use peace to improve/gain tech/ideas/gold/colonies/monarch points
-Increase Trust with Austria whenever we reach 20 Favours (keep 10 in case of offensive war).
-Declare Firenze as a province of vital interest.
- Long Term Goal: Eventual war for provinces in Genoa Trade Node against Tuscany and Savoy (if threatening to give them to us does not work), to increase power in Trade Node for more income. Make claims as needed. Declare on Tuscany due to it being the softer target. Seizing Trade Bonus Provinces priority.

To His Grace Louis François de Montségur, Duke of Trinacria, Viceroy of Cusco,
With this letter I would express my sincere apologies. These are affairs I clearly did not know, even if I did my best to check my research before including anything in the proposed plans of the chancellery. I have withdrawn my proposed plan for Cusco and hope there will be no more tension between us.
Please accept my congratulations to your appointment as Viceroy of Cusco, by hands of His Holiness Francis I. I am sure your expertise will prove to be an invaluable asset to the cause of Hispania.
While we are unfortunate of not having news about your father's murderer, I remain convinced we will find him soon.
May God Almighty watch your step,
Lúcia Fernanda Manuela de Maia, Condesa de Lisboa
