As in, what's to prevent Varis from telling Asahi that certain options are on the table when Varis knows they aren't? Everyone kinda has to take Asahi's word for it that he's presenting Varis' stance accurately and there's so many ways that could go wrong I really don't see any good reason to trust him.
It shouldn't be that hard to verify, there is a garlean embassy over in Kugane which presumably has been given instructions regarding Garlemald's diplomatic plans. If not it shouldn't take them too long to confirm if this guy is legit, assuming we don't meet him there to begin with.
