In truth, the force that drove the burgeoning Principality from Palisade was the Chimeric Cadent, the now-ancient being who lives in Chimera's Lantern and guards the bodies of deceased Divines that lie within it. Chimera's Lantern is a sanctuary and final resting place for Divines who wish to die and to be free of their masters; the Chimeric Cadent protects those Divines from being forced back into service to the Principality.[5]
During the Divine Principality's occupation of Palisade, Nidean forces land on and claim control over Chimera's Lantern. They call this mission Operation Lamplighter.[1] They claim to be mining the moon for some sort of powerful mineral with the intent to eventually terraform and colonize it.[3]
