Rough summary with a rough chronology, borrowed from House Glenn:
- (Day 1) Dekara used to be the governor of Elnath, but then the Confirmation of the Inherent Rights of the Nobility Act was seconded, and the planet rebelled overnight. Keep in mind, though, that Elnath is already highly xenophobic and the rebellion seems to have a religious element to it (Church of the Flame fanatics are involved)
- (Day 2-4) Mikhailovsky-Ivanov has been trying to get his territory on the planet locked down and his HoH's wife (located at the Ivanov Hermitage, a museum and palace complex a hundred kilometers or so from Novy Yekaterinburg) offworld. It hasn't been working out too well. Novy Yekaterinburg is under heavy rebel attack.
- (Day 2-4) Imperial Guard forces under General Tobias Krenshaw landed on the planet on 1st Tributes, but something's gone horribly wrong. Their chain of command has fallen apart, and it looks like both the Imperial Guard and the Imperial Navy have been infiltrated, possibly by Voidspawn.
- (Day 1-4) Mitsurugi agents are inflaming the situation by impersonating planetary authority figures and trying to make the Empire look as abusive as possible.
- (Day 4) An Imperial Guard task force just showed up at the Ivanov Hermitage to escort the Baroness to safety, but they're being RPed by an anonymous poster and seem to be acting independently from General Krenshaw. Two hundred Mikhailovsky-Ivanov Cavalry Guards face off against two hundred faux-Imperial Guard, eventually defeating the imposters for the price of one hundred and eighty-two men.
- (Day 4) The Imperial battleship Dreadnought arrives in orbit along with an Imperial fleet and Houraisan supporting elements, under orders to bombard every spaceport on the planet and prevent any vessels from leaving the surface of the planet. Every spaceport on the city is struck with nuclear weapons. Harlangrad (the location of the planetary Imperial Guard command), Marseilles Nouveau (the capital), and Novy Yekaterinburg take hits. The former is almost obliterated, the status of the second is unknown, and the third has suffered a partial dome collapse.
- (Day 4) Mitsurugi agents transmit a (faked) video of Emperor Cuthbert Godwinson's assassination, and the declaration of a new Eridani Republic. Emperor Godwinson goes ballistic.
