Two years after the beginning of the start of what would become the [[Pentarchate Succession Crisis]], but at the time was merely the [[Iridium Throne]] succession crisis, the severe sanctions set on the Throne by [[Weun]] and the [[Selfmade Consensus]] had at last forced [[Varuk Mai]] MMCV to enter to the negotiating chamber. The [[Democratic Republic of Aegypiinae]] and [[Inokh]] were requested by both sides of the conflict to attend the ‘Moot as diplomatic backup, and they did so, although for their own reasons, which will be summarized shortly.
