I’m talking about the whole situation, sure they could be worse off after the fight but the takeover attempt is a failure.

If it was a take over attempt, then it would seem it has failed. However, how do we know that is what this is? S8 has his hands full between the Talamatis and the Imbali prides, and RRM has always given me the impression that he is content with what he has, if he wanted to expand the number of prides under his control, or his territory, then after he had healed from that fight with the Tintswalos would have been the perfect time to do that, when the Nharus almost would not accept him back, instead he went through a long period of doing his best to get back into their good graces.

However, we did recently see S8 and the Talamatis go into the BDMs territory, and some speculation has been that they were pushed that way by the Imbalis. How do we not know that the same thing may have pushed them north into RRM and Nharu territory? I am not sure this was a takeover attempt, and likely something has happened that lead them to this conflict. Hopefully we will get more news soon, on what exactly has transpired. Reply
