It was at this time that jusipat, Governor-General of Poitevine who bore the brunt of the Family's attacks on the Empire's soil began to seek a secret separate peace with TheOldBookman if the Empire did not restart negotiations. However, flufyking would have a private meeting with the TheOldBookman, whereby it was agreed that there would be a non-aggression pact between the two nations for an entire week, along with a promise of promoting trade and having less destructive wars in the future. Both the players, leaders of their respective factions, had grown tired of the endless violence and so agreed upon these terms. The goods, which were claimed in the war were returned, and both parties went their separate ways; peace had been made.

	Following the raid on The Family's base and an increasing risk that the war may turn into a protracted conflict both parties agreed to meet at Castle Ilthand to come to an agreement for a ceasefire and potential peace. The Empire's fighters including SaucyTacos_, jusipat, flufyking and Kjolt947 arrived with their captured POW Mathooleus. Cflip_ and Wikaros from the Forest Alliance were also present at the meeting.

Cflip_ and Wikaros from the Forest Alliance were also present at the meeting. TheOldBookman would arrive shortly after.

	The Conference and Ilthand was a protracted affair, with many in the room still on edge following the recent battles. This was further aggravated by Sovereign of the Empire flufyking's war demands on TheOldBookman and Mathooleus, in which he demanded their possessions to be kept and only ransomed piecemeal back at prices deemed by the Empire. Furthermore, TheOldBookman had brought TNT into the conference for an unknown reason. This attracted the ire of the host bcfoss and the other members of the conference. He was forced to hand over the TNT before negotiations regarding a potential Treaty of Ilthand could resume.

	Following an extended ~~period of~~ lull in any fighting, on the evening of November 15th, 2023, TheOldBookman and Mathooleus began a campaign of aerial offensives against the city of Poitevine. jusipat was alerted to this and quickly logged on, in doing so he was messaged by the members of The Family that he ought to log off "for his own good". Observing that they were already bombing his base, jusipat saw through this ploy and resolved to fight off the invaders with the full backing of the might of the Empire.

Observing that they were already bombing his base, jusipat saw through this ploy and resolved to fight off the invaders with the full backing of the might of the Empire.

	The beginning phases of the aerial campaign against Poitevine saw a collection of helicopters and airplanes dropping TNT, gyrodynes strafing with fireball magic, and periodic ground attacks on the city, one of which infiltrated jusipat's residence, destroying his bed. At first, the Empire was helpless in repelling such an attack, as aerial assaults have been exceptionally rare throughout server history. jusipat rapidly began experimenting with planes and eventually began copying the Family's gyrodyne strategy. He and SaucyTacos_ then boarded said gyrodyne and began harrying the attackers in the skies above Poitevine.
