Okay, so befriending Ichtaca is impossible actually! Sending her to the victory display removes her from play. That means discarding all tokens from her, unless stated otherwise. And it isn't stated otherwise.

So when we advance, she doesn't have any clues on her. So it's impossible to go to the first outcome.

But we didn't defeat her either, we just sent her directly to the victory display. Sooo if you advance by parleying, you can't go to the second outcome either! Meaning, you get stuck in a limbo, and don't advance anywhere! Now your only option is to resign.

Note: this card does NOT exhaust after you fail a parley and it attacks you. So it will attack multiple times if you fail multiple parleys in the same round.

As per the FAQ, "Enemies only exhaust after attacking if they perform an attack during step 3.3 of the enemy phase. Unless otherwise noted, all other enemy attacks do not cause that enemy to exhaust".
