Zabaryn Sinja Ssuras

1. [Military] Create unit Mane 3 It is almost viewed as an insult 3 units are dedicated to the defense of the Baedshah but he fears rebels from every corner and so trains another elite unit he believes wont abandon him.
   
2. [Military] Create unit Another unit of mongrels is raised to walk alongside their female counterparts to defend their emperor.
   
3. [Military] Create unit Claw 5 is forged as a means of creating a loyalist army of Rakshasa only, no faith can be placed in foreign actors until rebellions are crushed.
   
4. [Military] Crush Master of Hasain Odul (5) Zabaryn Sinja Ssuras 8+4 units+3 (iron weapons, camel cavalry, Prayer Seals) These local rebels were a popular uprising and were a direct threat to the empire. So soldiers abandon their fight against the more powerful threat of his brother in the hopes of consolidating power and waiting out his brother for the arrival of the massive armies from Khirus and Lazar.
   
5. [Diplomacy] Forge an agreement with Kissin Rieba Ssuras His sister is approached with an offer. She is told two massive armies one from Khirus and one from their Lazarite vassals are arriving and he will have overwhelming force compared to her. Her chances of survival are low and the nation has never had a female god king. It is an insult to Khompur and she will eventually be abandoned or forced to marry even if she does some how become victorious. The god king offers to make her "empress" equal to him in power (with all but name) and her children will be allowed to fight the honour duels that lead to emperor in exchange she surrenders her soldiers to him and swears loyalty to his cause. (She will be allowed to control 2 actions per turn until she passes)
   
6. [Diplomacy] Reach out to the harem maintaining the resources necessary for war have become difficult raids are necessary to get the war machine going. The god-king demands the harem focuses their energy on gaining resources necessary to ensure the empire survives under its god king!
