Well I walked away with the impression Caelum used me to grab some free provinces while maintaining their NAP with TC. Communication did seem to get strangely quiet and since you didn't ever say "I couln't get peace with Cti's so you are on your own..." I just assumed the worst, which is of course partly my fault for not asking.
But I also see it is part of the game which is why I use the nation titles instead of the player's behind them.
I am just stoking the fire since I am finished
fleas in ears and all that
