Asmodeus has many thoughts about this; His mind is large and has room for many thoughts inside it.  Among those thoughts is that this compact would happen to benefit Milani a great deal more if, for some reason, Asmodeus had otherwise underestimated how well the war with Nidal would go for Cheliax; and Milani, somehow, knew about this, when Asmodeus did not.

It is still relatively good news about whether Milani - and some conspiracy that She is part of - is mainly plotting something directly and irrevocably opposed to Asmodeus's interests; unless, of course, that is exactly what Milani wants Asmodeus to think.

Asmodeus responds with a counter-proposal.  It has much more stringent definitions of exactly what kind of counterfactual improvements will be said to be traceable to Milani's particular suggestion for Otolmens's intervention.

(The overcomplicated terms are designed to exclude, in passing, improvements in war conditions and of Cheliax's health that are traceable to whatever has His squirrels in the anomaly's immediate vicinity so excited.  Asmodeus has noticed them becoming more excited, over the last couple of days.

If Milani rejects that part, or suggests overcomplicated modifications in return that would again count benefits passing through whatever-excited-His-squirrels as being due to Milani, Asmodeus will have a much clearer idea of what is going on.)

The part about stays of torment for souls in Hell is, of course, entirely unacceptable.  Though Asmodeus supposes that Milani could suggest some very, very high rate of conversion between new souls added and old souls stayed.

(If Milani suggests an astronomical but reachable rate, it will suggest that, for some reason, Her target is a particular soul in Hell, and the rest of this is just an elaborate ruse to disguise it.  Asmodeus doesn't know why Milani would do that, it seems more Stupid Good than Chaotic Good, but it's among the many many possibilities that Asmodeus is considering for what might really be going on.)

Also Asmodeus is not going to integrate the expected benefits over infinite time to be paid out immediately because Asmodeus is not three minutes old.
