I can't state loss of your avatar as a mistake - unless it was by mistakenly attacking too strong enemy, that is. In any case, it was tactical, not strategic mistake. I understand your reasoning about alliances & I've already said that negotiations could take too long also. I still think that coordinated actions would have more chances of downing the said beast..

Maybe. It's too late now anyway.
The mistake was attacking on turn one, without knowledge of surroundings, and low dominion. That also gave Claire (contrary to what Sauromantia wrote earlier) the first of her affliction : a chest wound. Basically the worst affliction (except maybe a 20% reduction in hp) that she could get, +5 enc means that she cannot be used to beat up large armies anymore, only small ones.

Claire's reasons have nothing to do with greed, nor panicking. Claire thought about about clearing a path to the pPantokrator's seat, by choosing the solution that seems to yield the best result while adapting Claire's strategy to the situation.
Claire doesn't understand what defeat or losing means. By doing both of those, you learn, and that by itself is a victory.
If you understand that, maybe you will know Claire a little better.
Finally, Claire laughed when Claire made a minor modification to your message, and Malphas proposed to place this modified text in every town in our lands
"That's a nice way of saying
Sauromatia's leader panicked and bleated for help from nations with their own problems as
Sauromantia's culture was destroyed. You got greedy, and launched an invasion on the rich nation that had earned their place, and

Sauromantia have been counterinvaded. Deal with it."
Claire has told the world and Abyssian that Claire will do whatever is in her power to make it true.
