What would be the implications of a holy war between the fellowships of Gramail and Glioca?

Would Gramail have the support of Loures, and would this support be the veil to a simple war of conquest, as waged upon Undine?

Can Loures wage such a potentially large war when it still has not solved the Orc and Goblin problems in Grass Fields, pratically its backyard?

Would Undine, sensing Loures cannot hold its ground on all fronts, attempt to liberate itself? Would Suomi finally get involved in the Undine situation, seeing as Glioca, who is Deoch's ally, would be under siege?

If Undine were to be free from Loures, would it intervene in Mileth?

Ceannlaidir's Piet would aid Loures and/or Gramail, no doubt on that, but would Fiosachd's Abel do the same? How big is the importance of Mileth in Abel port's economy?

Or would Mileth's officials, under the same veil of a holy war, attempt to conquer Abel and lock itself between the sea and mountains?

With Abel port closed, the only means of travel into the region would be Pravat Caves. Assuming the Grimlok side with Mileth and the Goblins with Loures, would the first major confrontations happen for the control of Pravat?

Or would Goblins and Grimloks remain neutral? Perhaps one of the races would ally with one of the warring cities in an attempt to obliterate the other side once and for all and take control of Pravat, but which side, and with what city? Would this an actual control, or would the remaining race be but a puppet for its allied city?

Would the greater turmoil in Pravat Caves bring the Draco from Kasmanium Mines out or the inhabitants from the Chaos Realms to the surface?

Luathas is an ally of Gramail, and Rucesion has a strong political rivalry with Mileth. Still, would Rucesion take the side of Loures, or remain neutral?

Should Rucesion march to war, would its wizards attempt to use the inhabitants of Dubhaimid Castle in its aid? Would such an act result in the same fate seen in the Shadow Wars, or would the Dubhaim accept the rule of Loures, once home of Lord Tenes and speculated resting place of Chadul, to destroy Mileth, birthplace of Aislings and symbol city of Danaan and the Tuatha?

Would the Sgrios fellowship play any part in the conflict? Would it fight its enemy Gramail against its ally Ceannlaidir, put the Light and Darkness conflict above the Octogram and attack Danaan's Mileth, follow Chadul's lead if any, follow the Dubhaimid, or remain neutral?

Would the weak Tagor and distant Oren Island be involved at all?

If the Dubhaimid march under Chadul, would the undead from the Cthonic Remains do the same? Or are they not in league with Chadul, and are more likely to band together and use the distraction to destroy Tagor?

Aislings are likely to be involved, and most are likely to favor Mileth and Glioca. Would this be the deciding factor, disregarding any other?
