Though a leader had almost instantly died, along with a governor, everyone knew the Alliance was powerful, even commanding the Starfighter Battle Group.
But just because you could kill a former ruler didn't mean you could rule this place smoothly!
That was the dark thought festering in the minds of many governors of Purple Horse.

The local Defense Armies would rise in revolt, if not to avenge the deceased governor and leader, at least they wouldn't easily accept a sudden change of master, right?
And the people everywhere would question the Alliance's legitimacy, especially given such a despicable method of subversion and coup. They would inevitably stir up unrest, armed resistance, strikes, riots...
