When Emperor Taliesin Silmuna attempted to revoke the electorate of the Magisterium, citing the confirmation of rumors that Grand Magister Adran Silistra had made a pact with the infernals for his magical prowess, the electors of Moonhaven and Istralore, both recently Corinite, jointly denounced the decree for fear of the precent revoking their own electorate. A vote of the princes could not be called, as nearly all of them east of the Dameshead would side with the Corintes. Thus, a vote of the electors was called. The Magisterium obviously voted against the notion, joined by Istralore and Moonhaven. Yet Beepeck, Damescrown, and Silverforge fell on the Emperor's side. All weighed on the elector of Pearlsedge, Duke Caylen VI Sil na Trisfer. Caylen was... Busy, to say the least. His colonial ventures had been perpetually stimied in the Dry Coast and now he was in a war he did not want and truly could not win with a band of sun elves the Emperor refused to lend assistance with, as it was an ocean away. Thus, Caylen claimed neutrality, which in hindsight was the worst possible option he could have picked.
The only possible solution at this point was force of arms - which was made even more complicated with the declaration of Temar II Frozenmaw on the side of the objecting electors.
To the Aedenics in the Empire, this confused many. Temar II had spent 30 years of his life butchering Corintes in his own land as they waged religious wars in the Reach. Perhaps the Grey Emperor had finally lost it, driven mad by his father's homunculus. To the Corintes this seemed like the old Emperor finally seeing the light and signaling an end to the bloodshed. Instead, this was a stroke of politics suggested by Adran Silistra of the Magisterium. Temar II may've been clever, but he'd always considered pantheon affairs a Cannorian problem - not a political one.
