Neighbour's change [1]

Qutb Sultanate, Royal Palace.

Zafar Shah was having his meetings as usual in the Royal Court. He was frustrated with mughals as the war with Marathas was on the horizon. The Mughal Emperor had promised him land carved from the region of Marathas in return for the support provided by the Sultanate.

The Portuguese were also looking to support the Mughals for a lucrative deal to use the Surat Port. The Marathas had denied benefits to the Surat port. The Portuguese want to expand into the markets of Surat. 

The major reason to get Surat was the establishment of a warehouse. The Surat port was the closest en route to the Subcontinent directly since the winds deterred them from going to the Cochin Port. The merchants had to hug the African coast to reach the Subcontinent.
