The Erkin Khan readily agrees to your proposal. Turning to Jhaqo, you express your intention, "You are my brother, my blood, my right hand. You deserve this honor, the hand of a princess." But Jhaqo, unexpectedly, hesitates. “Does she consent to this marriage?” he asks, a surprising question on the steppes, where women are only seen as pawns in political alliances. His question reflects a deep consideration, unheard of in your culture. Jhaqo insists, “I won’t marry her if she is unwilling. I refuse to father a child born of resentment.” You understand his stance, remembering the harsh circumstances of Jhaqo's birth and upbringing. Respecting his wishes, you assure him, “Your consent and hers are both essential. I won’t force this union.” Luckily, your concerns are alleviated when the Erkin Khan’s daughter joyfully accepts the proposal to marry Jhaqo, your impressive and strong half-brother. A swift wedding is planned to cement the alliance. However, not all in the Erkin Tribe welcome this union. Rogho, the Khan's nephew, known for his prowess as a warrior and rumored to have romantic ties with his cousin in the past, openly challenges the marriage. “This alliance is humiliating!” he declares, rallying dissenters within the tribe. Faced with this opposition, you ponder your approach. How do you quell this rebellion, not with force, but with tact? Winning Rogho's support, or at least neutralizing his opposition, is crucial. Perhaps offering him a position of influence within your combined tribes or negotiating other terms might appease his pride and secure peace. Your leadership and diplomatic skills are tested as you navigate this delicate situation, seeking a solution that maintains harmony and strengthens the alliance.
