How was the Star empire nobility overthrown by the New Party? After suffering military defeat, they failed to notice as the New Party amassed strength and ultimately toppled the long standing nobility. While comparing three petty criminals in a small city to a national revolution might seem excessive, the dynamics were the same. The Three Giants had developed a deep understanding over time, maintaining strict boundaries without ever crossing them.
Years of co-existence had brought peace to their "war," especially in the past two years, during which Wood, Carrell, and Ernst had avoided even minor clashes. This was a dangerous signal, implying a level of coordination and unity among the three that was far too high. Just as rulers dread seeing alliances form among subordinates, Peter feared witnessing the Three Giants align in a defensive alliance.
