Below features intensive spoilers to the Mary Thread. The following information is not fully public knowledge.
The Jade Restoration was a pivitol moment in Essotori, during which, the reformist Livingstone Regime was removed from power in a coup, by forces loyal to the Noezrod Glorious Jade, and the conservative faction. Despite the coup being in their name, virtually all of the organisation and logistics were done by the secretive Ascended Angels, under the Functionary, as well as by the palace staff, primarily, Alastair Sigorwald. The Restoration was a success, andn over the course of twenty days, the Livingstone Regime was defeated, and its leaders executed. What followed, was a scouring of the literati, as well as the political class, for all traces of sympathy for Livingstone sympathies. Fighting was mostly constrained to Radonstinatle, with extensive, blasphemous fighting taking place inside the Palace of Origin itself, as both sides sought to strike a decisive blow.
