after re-read it's the same thing you write. only the ivalan acceptance +1 from kerannii refuse is implicit added.

Also I guess having Kerannii makes it easier to access the negotiations in the first place, but I do not know if there's a way to leverage that advantage into anything meaningful (maybe delay the purchase of the airships in Chapter 4, but that has other consequences too). kerannii is better only if succubi are accepted or church diverge, otherwise it will sunk the check to open the negotiation. with the immense help esmera deal do during the synod, and the very few bonus granted by kerannii out of the synod i think esmera still remain the superior deal.
