Probably Razmir, but she wasn't privy to the negotiations. They do have a few more pit fiends out now but that's more expensive for Asmodeus. …Lilia's pretty sure Asmodeus is spending much less elsewhere in order to win this fight. She doesn't know why. 

Alright. In that case he's going to go back to waging his war, and leave Lilia with someone else who can get all the other details she has about Chelish spies and capabilities and deployments and intentions and the like. The truth spell won't last that long but they can get another one and confirm again that she's been honest with them later.

No, they can't, but she smiles politely and wishes him a swift end to his war.

Cansellarion goes to warn Morgethai first, in case there are any preparations she can make in advance if she knows when and where the fight will be. Cheliax is presumably planning to monitor when she goes to sleep with a nightmare and trigger the attack then, but since they know when that's coming - he imagines she can rest with a keep watch spell, prepare her daily spells for combat, and then take a very brief nap to trigger the attack when she's ready.

"You think the defection isn't, itself, a trick of some kind?"

"It could be, though she answered questions under a truthtelling with any contingencies or enchantment foils she might have had dispelled. And obviously between now and Oathday we'll check what we can check from other sources. If it is a trick… it's an expensive one. Montero was good at her job. And I don't see a way that preparing for an attack here on Oathday leaves us more vulnerable to something else - in any case, I'm planning to talk to Clepati next and it's possible she just…knows… in her way, whether it's a trick."

"- I suppose if anyone would it'd be her. All right. I'll be ready on Oathday."

"It looks like you were right, and this will be largely decided before the third Teleportation Circle."

Nefreti looks contemptuous. "Yes," she says. 

"Do I need to tell you the rest or can I skip to asking my questions?"

"You can ask your questions, though I don't know if you should."

'What in the world do you mean by that?' is a question that…would not get an informative answer.

"You said you could kill Razmir, or destroy Lorthact with help. Can you do both or do I have to pick one?"

"Oh, I don't think I should do both."

"Okay. Lorthact, then. I am guessing based on our prior conversation that there is a second person named Alfirin that I should be trying to find? Can you tell me where to reach her?"

"I can, but I shouldn't."

"Is there any point in asking why not?"

"...you remind her too much of Iomedae, and she does not like to be reminded of Iomedae."

"...Okay. Can you ask her for help yourself, then, if the problem is that I'm an Iomedan paladin?"

"Oh, she knows she needs to help. She just doesn't know if she wants to."

That's not very helpful. He sighs.

"Are there any actions you want to suggest that I or anybody else could take that would help resolve this for her?"

Nefreti frowns. "You could tell Lilia the whole strategic picture and ...invite her to Iomedae and Alfirin's wedding."

"You think it's safe to trust Lilia's information? Why would telling her the whole strategic picture help anything?" 'Iomedae and Alfirin aren't going to have a wedding, they're both girls' does not merit mentioning.

"What does 'safe' mean? What does 'trust' mean? Lilia Ramona de Montero is the best liar in the whole world. But maybe, if you won, she wouldn't have to be."

"Is her defection genuine, or a Chelish trick?"

"What is 'genuine'? What makes a trick Chelish?"
