It's a good thing Pendralis is an island nation. There are no way spies can easily reach Pendralis, and even if they do, good luck getting away with an entire sea or ocean between them.
Soon, representatives from both Aragon and the Fasians arrived at Arthur's camp to negotiate the terms of peace. The tide of war had shifted irrevocably, and now, Arthur held the advantage. Both Aragon and Fasi recognized that continuing the war would only lead to further devastation, and thus, they sought a diplomatic resolution. However, while peace was the immediate priority, both kingdoms knew they could not remain at a disadvantage forever. In secret, their rulers instructed their spies to gather intelligence on Pendralis' advanced weaponry. The war had ended for now, but the age of firearms had just begun.

Yeah. Like, do these cavemen really think percussion caps and smokeless gunpowder are easily recreated when they don't even know shit about basic chemistry? Not to mention how much metallurgy sucks back in the medieval age?
Like the Fasian king, Juan realized that war was now unwinnable. He called for an emergency meeting with his advisors. Though some still wished to fight, the majority agreed that peace was the only path forward. However, Juan had no intention of allowing Pendralis to maintain its overwhelming advantage forever. He secretly instructed his spies to infiltrate Pendralis, learn the secrets of their weapons, and bring this knowledge back to Aragon. For now, peace was necessary, but the future remained uncertain.

Arthur rested his hands on the table, his expression composed. "I called you here to discuss the future."
