Here follows a summary of what happened in Fronen, as I heard from my brother Tiridius. He is loyal to the Republic of Fronen,

the one under ex-prime minister Fronen, which we have our alliance with. This view might not be objective, but at least it gives you the other side of the story, for those interested:

• Prime Minister Cedric stepped down in order to let someone else rule Fronen.
• Grand Justiciar Enzeru gets elected Prime Minister. Krider gets elected Grand Justiciar.
• Discussion in their senate lead to some disagreement among the senators.
• General Grimbaldus calls the army to prepare for war against Avalon, while no political stance has been taken. There are objections against this.
• Enzeru appoints Krider as a count while a discussion who to appoint (Trumpet was favored) is going on in the senate. There are objections against this.
• Krider bans Epaminonda because Enweil asked to. Epaminonda was just travelling through Enweilian regions back home. There are many objections against this.
• Krider, senator Ravenous and Enzeru have a personal vendetta against Banker Apothes, because he disagrees with them but expresses himself in a wrong way.
• Krider steps down because of the many objections, without being forced to. Alexius gets elected Grand Justiciar.
• Grimbaldus steps down because of objections and because he cannot stand the ongoing discussion, without being forced.
• Grimbaldus starts the rebellion. Senator Ravenous, Krider and others join the rebels. They claim that Prime Minister Enzeru is also on their side. Cedric and all landed nobles (who deserved their title by serving Cedric when he was Prime Minister) and the older Fronen members join the loyalists.
• They want to reform Fronen because they claim that the previous government was corrupt. However, the previous government consisted of Enzeru as Prime Minister (who they claim to be on the rebel side as well), Krider as Grand Justiciar and Grimbaldus as General. That leaves Apothes as only government member, which they had a personal vendetta against.
• Enzeru strips Apothes from his titles and accuses him of imposture, probably only because of his personal vendetta as Apothes didn't do anything that was not noble. He then exiled the 3 dukes from the realm, and provided as sole reason "For the sake of the ressurection of Fronen". Probably only because the dukes were powerful loyalists. Afterwards Enzeru gives in to the rebellion, which therefore succeeds.
• Rebel leader Grimbaldus appoints fellow rebel Ravenous as General and fellow rebel Lucius as Banker.
• Loyalists Alexius steps down for a proper election for Grand Justiciar. However time is short, and people didn't change there vote, so Krider gets re-elected.
• Krider revokes the right for voting.
• Lucius revoked all tax shares from the knights and granted all gold to the rebel government.
• Alexius calls for a counter rebellion.

On January 15th Adras Duke of Fronepu begins to disband the city's militia. Seeing this, Grimbaldus removes Adras from command of the city. Grimbaldus then questions the nobility of Duke Adras causing Adras and nobles in Fronepu to lose honor. Many nobles protest.

At sunset, within hours both Alexius, the counter-rebel leader and Grimbaldus the new Prime Minister were attacked by infiltrators and subsequently wounded.
