1. Conceal the fact that you had the former Keeper of Elysium murdered. Yes yes, he had insulted you dozens and dozens of times, and he absolutely had it coming, but that doesn't matter anymore. You're not sure how, but someone knew it was coming and used the opening to kill the Prince while he was waiting for her to arrive. You may not have actually been involved, but if anyone finds out you had the Keeper killed, you're definitely going to get blamed for the whole thing.
2. There are currently three claimants for Prince. Demoux is a bastard, Patience is barely a step away from being human, and MacDaniel is more suited to fending off Crusades than actually running a Court. Nonetheless, a proper Kindred always rises on the back of conflict, and this counts. Convince each of the Primogen to back you for Harpy in the new Court, and see which of the claimants is willing to pay best.
3. As the Factions bicker and backstab, they also serve the interests of the Argonauts by doing so on behalf of Faction rather than clan. Convince representatives from each Faction to formalize the system, officially recognizing the Factions and awarding Primogen seats based on Faction, rather than Clan.
