War Mage Rebellion

The war mages' formal team entity, declared defeated by the system with no assets whatsoever to award.

Story so far

After Akuma leaves the realm, a Warlord Message announces that as per the current season's ruleset the War Mage Rebellion has been defeated, and that they have no assets to award.

The declaration is bitterly hollow: a defeated warlord team normally surrenders its holdings to the victors, but the war mages held nothing they cared about — they had already taken The Scavenger's Daughter and abandoned the Reaver Castle. Baroness Victory uses the ruling to sidestep Carl's questions, saying the team is officially defeated and therefore no longer under her authority.

Role

Formally defeated warlord team whose collapse yields the crawlers nothing.

Relationships

The War Mages — The faction it formalizes.
Akuma — Its warlord, who abandoned it.
Baroness Victory — Cites its defeat to avoid answering Carl.
