After seventy-five years of exploring beacon space with little to no sign of Grail, tension and unrest began to fulminate among the ranks of the Starlit court. The notion of the Grail quest came into question, with several knights devising alternate interpretations of Grail, and the quest itself.

The followers of these ideologies come to be known as [[The Free Dominion|The Dominionists]].

Eventually, violent Dominionist forces led by the renowned knight Syr Ancelot lead an attempted coup against the Court itself, waiting until a lull in Sihi's defenses before seizing control of the station and attempting to ram it into Dachia.

This attack was barely thwarted when a ragtag group of knights led by Syr Reynald who slew Syr Ancelot in single combat, causing the Dominionists to break and flee.
