Mostly because in my demented Meta-ASWAH canon you spent years in the Saltcave training a bunch of magpies in a convoluted escape scheme before you got out thr usual way. The Angry Magpies, as they came to be known, became a part of the local ecosystem.
Really? I've always been kind of curious as to how I fit into the thread meta, as the last time you posted something along those lines I hadn't really established much of a presence.
 
So what do we tell Tarly? We have a mix of pirates, whites, former slaves, former Demon flesh crafted slaves, ambitious murderers and general n'er do wells that have turned into fanatical soldiers willing to die for us?
 
So, are we gonna show him the post-conquest map, or handle the matter differently? I'm pretty sure he's just asking who we're going to be awarding with titles and lands instead of a deeper goal.

Right have we promised anything in Westeros directly? It's mostly us promising Westerosi people keeps in Essos that have opened up due to magisters getting themselves slowly offed by violating our laws over time. The main things I can think of are:
  1. Dalla and her Wilding get land in the Vale
  2. Some mountain goes to the Pech
  3. Reach is definitely getting Balkanized.
  4. Celtigars, Darrys and Velayrons getting boons (most public names we can toss out imo)
  5. What others get to keep greatly depends on how quickly they bend.
Do we mention Theon Greyjoy ruler of Grey port here or wait on that?

We're pretty liberally distributing land in Essos because we have swaths of it and Westerosi jump at the idea, but you're right in that we haven't really established who's gonna be getting what in Westeros beyond broad border rearranging.
 
WITH THAT SAID, THE FAE US NOT WRONG. THE ONLY THING SCARBRAND HATES MORE THAN LACK OF ATTENTION IS BEING THE CENTER OF IT! THIS IS SCARBRAND'S CATCH TWENTY-TWO, AND HE HATES IT! IT, AND GEORGE ORWELL AND RAY BRADBURY!!!
 
So...do we reveal that we are trying to integrate the Mountain Tribes now? I think that's the sticking point. Maybe throw in some things about our plans for the Lannisters and Grey port.

^well that's an option too I suppose. Maybe stick with rewarding the Pech a mountain? The fuck is the crown gonna do with that info?
 
How about a "You're not protected against mindreading or future-sight. I'm not telling you shit".
He barely understands those are a thing.

What we really need to answer him is something he can interpret as 'the sort of people he'd like to see rewarded'. You know, proper upstanding lords and such. We can't mention anyone by name but if we talk about 'good loyalist lords' he'll be happy.

We also promised old Walder Prime dominion over the northern Riverlands.
 
Why? I get divination security is a thing, but it ain't a secret the Greyjoy's are with us.
The Greyjoys being ours isn't a secret, but our plans for Lannisport are. I want that to stay a surprise, and currently nobody who isn't Mind Blanked knows about it. We blab about this to someone who isn't Mind Blanked and it'll go straight back to the Lannisters, who will undoubtedly do their best to screw it up for us.

As it stands there's no reason to talk about it.

I think this another case like with you freaking out over putting Aegon's crown on the Viserys figurines. There's security, there's paranoia, and then there's just absurdity.

It's not like they would not be able to guess Viserys' plans would be in this vein. IC Viserys does not think revealing them would make much difference to the level of Lannister enmity.
