Under my character Asteri formed some fairly close ties with the then Caesar Ioannis. Iggy and I talked IC pretty early on. Maybe we can reveal some of those talks after the current game ends...

Little did I know that a. many of the Houses would form on a "loyalist" basis and b. that there would be some minor internal conflict over how close to the Imperial family Asteri should be.

Then when Kosmas backed down from his position as House leader the House snapped back into the in between position it had up until the end. I think deguerra was biding his time for something major to happen before Asteri attempted to intervene in any conflicts, but then the civil wars stalled and there never really was a chance.

Of course, other members of Asteri might have a completely different view of what happened over the game.
