Spoiler warning! This section contains major spoilers for An Impossible Ideal. Tread carefully! |
Elcessor went to military school in Kesh space.
Stel Kesh sends her to Palisade to oversee the Principality's occupation of the planet and to "hold [a] knife over the Twilight Mirage."[3] Her arrival causes tension with the Fabreal Duchy, leading to the ousting of Perpetual Lustre as the Duchy's leader.[1]
On Palisade, she effectively rules the Bilateral Intercession from her base in Tintagel. As a Stargrave she has the authority to detonate the system's stellar combustor, should she deem it necessary to protect the Principality.[1] Doing so would destroy not only the Palisade system and the Twilight Mirage, but also the 23 nearest star systems.[3]
During her time on the planet, and especially following the Cause's destruction of the Kestral White, she becomes deeply paranoid. She has a dummy detonator created that she uses to practice detonating the stellar combustor.[4] It is rumoured that she makes her staff practice dying.[2]
In response to losing the Kestral White, she delivers an ultimatum: the leaders of each Cause faction must turn themselves in to the Bilateral Intercession immediately or she will detonate the combustor and end trillions of lives. Nobody, not even Connadine, can talk her down.[2] She is thwarted by members of the Blue Channel who sneak onto the stellar combustor and, with assistance from STEREOMA, deactivate it.[5]
