In the face of a rebellion Morek's ruler steps down and secedes.
During subsequent days old Morek nobles log in and switch allegiance to the new realm.
In a few weeks we will have the old Morek with all its cities and nobles intact but under a new name.
Somewhere inbetween those cities there will be a few townslands and rural provinces held by Lurian/Asylonian spies still named Morek.
Am I missing something or was it the most complicated and over the top way to deal with a rebellion I've ever seen? 
You're missing something
A lot of something.
Let's see, especially considering one of the members of said perceived rebellion is now a member of the new realm? Oh my, the plot thickens like properly crafted beef stew!
