She would have had to conceal it very well from Odyssial, though! Which... may have been nigh-unto impossible, you're unsure.

Unless you guys have plans for an epic Stress Reduction regime (like getting a Mouse of the Sun!), you've got to Limit Break somewhere!

Actually, it is possible to vent Limit by epically defending one of your Defining Intimacies, but it's generally quite difficult, almost on par with an Essence-raise-qualifying feat. You can also get Hero Rides Away, though you have no Ride.
Basically, people with pets are less affected by Limit. But Limit Break has its benefits! As a person with 10 natural Willpower, Odyssial benefits massively from Limit Breaking, due to Willpower regen having been badly nerfed this edition.

Maybe something like "Concession I: Information on their activities in the Realm, including intended goals (sufficient for PoSC.)"
Or "Concession I: Information on the overall state of the Reclamation, known approaches, Infernal activities in the Realm (broad overview of Reclamation and potential threats it poses.)"
I'm inclined to swap out the Working for either unless someone suggests a really useful Working we could use right now.

One willpower per day from sleeping, if you fulfill certain conditions.
I'm not sure if the votes will hold, so you'll have to rely on arguments for that part. It is likely the more sensible plan, so it'll have an edge, but even so.

The argument for Information is fairly straightforward. Knowing what they are up to and about in the Realm will let us see what kind of threat their plans pose, if they in fact pose any threat in the short-to-medium term. It allows us to see if we can use Infernal actions or even cooperate with them to a limited extent to further our own plans. It also establishes a precedent for them passing on information about the Reclamation to Ulyssian. And if there is something we can help them with given a clean conscience we can use PoSC or some of Ulyssian's other unique capabilities to work out a trade of favors under the third agreement.
We want to get them cooperative. To look at Ulyssian as a valuable contact. To come to him to further their goals and agendas, at least as long as those goals don't conflict with his own or advance the release of the Yozis. As they get used to dealing with him, there will be more of a rapport, Ulyssian will start looking more like... well, if not a friend, then someone who can be trusted within the confines of his word and who provides them valuable services. So if things do start to go badly with the Yozis (and Ulyssian can probably provide some potent examples via Odyssial's memories) then we'll be in a good position to exploit that to get them to defect, or at least turn rogue.
And since we don't actually have anything in mind for Sorcery, may as well. I just put it in as a holding vote anyway since it seemed a little more flexible a concession than an assassination. We don't need anyone assassinated, yet (that we know of). And negotiating a deal for help killing Anys Syn later on is certainly a good reason to keep a line open to them in the overall approach.

She's not above getting her hands dirty, and it this point, we've established that nothing short of that will stop us.
She had nothing against murdering the shit out of Zao after all, even though he was one of the strongest assets still pulling for Creation to not implode. And here we are outside of our area of strength, without any other supercombattant worthy assets at our side to help ablate her attention.

Yeah, switching my vote. Information is the life-blood of the Strategos, after all. If we know of something, we can work to either for it or against it with insanely brilliant plans. Blindspots, however, we can't counter so effectively.

With you guys looking set to run down (or almost out) of XP soon, you will have to make plays with what you've got. What you've got is quite a lot of power, but you can't be the best at everything. In that regard, information to use with Prophet is good, but if you're not grabbing Sorcery until the Solar Circle opens up, you'll have a lot of time IC without access. So it's not quite as one-sided as that.
