I doubt that's the way it works - some Sartarite bands follow Kallyr and grant her authority because they have some relationship with her. Other bands might tell her to piss off and take direction only from Broyan.

This is a problem the Heortlings have - they really can't delegate command without consent. Remember, nobody can make you do anything!

This is true. However, Sartarite bands that are not Kheldon or part of the Ring of Sartar are not likely to recognize that Kallyr has any authority over them. It is even harder for Leika since plenty of Colymar don't acknowledge her as lawful queen.
