Who Was There
Characters present in this moment
Desperate urgency veiled by calculated politeness
Gebek humbly leads the miner delegation before Queen Thalira, clearly articulating their people’s desperate plea to remove Federation forces before Aggedor’s wrath claims the planet. His choice of words underscores strategic diplomacy, yet his urgency exposes the existential threat the miners feel.
- • To secure Federation withdrawal to avert catastrophe
- • To persuade the Queen of the miners’ shared danger
- • Federation excavation has awakened ancient vengeance
- • Traditional governance must yield to survival
Cautious assessment masking inner urgency to understand the situation fully
Queen Thalira receives Gebek’s plea with cautious curiosity, immediately querying his intent rather than rejecting the delegation outright. Her measured response reflects a careful balance between royal duty and emergent crisis, signaling a willingness to consider unconventional paths when survival is at stake.
- • To determine the legitimacy of the miners’ warning
- • To evaluate immediate actions that preserve peace and safety
- • Her father’s legacy demands she weigh all voices prudently
- • The spirit’s power cannot be ignored without consequence
Unaware and thus unalarmed until the attack begins
A lone Peladion Royal Guard patrols the carved doors in ceremonial isolation, unaware of the rebellion brewing behind him. His vulnerability highlights the fragility of royal security and the sudden rupture of formal order when faced with direct miner action.
- • To maintain ceremonial vigilance at the throne room entrance
- • To respond appropriately if challenged
- • His duty is to follow protocol without question
- • Royal orders take precedence over crowd behavior
Professional detachment tinged with guarded disapproval
Ortron formally announces Gebek’s presence to Queen Thalira, demonstrating his role as ceremonial intermediary between the monarchy and external petitioners. His neutral formal tone masks underlying suspicion toward the miners’ motives and frustration at the erosion of Peladon’s autonomy.
- • To control the flow of information presented to the Queen
- • To maintain traditional protocol during crisis
- • Federation presence is corrupting Peladon’s sacred path
- • Royal authority must be preserved at all costs
Driven by collective outrage and a shared belief that no peaceful path remains
The Miner Collective operates not on stage but as the unseen force driving the rebellion outside the throne room doors. Their coordinated ambush of a lone guard marks the moment their previously measured pleas turn into armed resistance, transforming a diplomatic plea into a planetary crisis.
- • To force the Queen to acknowledge their demands by direct action
- • To prevent further Federation aggression
- • The Federation’s presence has awakened Aggedor
- • Only force will make authority listen
Objects Involved
Significant items in this scene

Their hinges groan under the weight of miner assaults, while their carved reliefs of ancient Peladonian myth and lineage frame the fragile boundary between royal authority and desperate revolt. The doors physically isolate the Queen’s diplomacy from the crisis unfolding outside.
