Funny story. This just happened in the last day or two. Looks like nobody described it here yet, so I will, but I am just an amused bystander.
On Dwlight, the Aegir Duchy seceded from Morek and formed the realm of Entia. When it seceded it took all of it's regions with it, including the Mark. Entia started to setup as a new realm, including holding elections for a new OrderMarshell (General). Gustov, a noble of the Mark put his hat in the ring for that election. Entia declared war on Morek. The Mark then rejoined Morek which transfered all the nobles of the Mark (including Gustov) back to Morek.
Gustov made a few public comments as to how he was thinking about remaining neutral in the civil war, before finally publicly declaring that he would fight on Morek's side.
The election in Entia ended, and Gustov won the election for Ordermarshell.
One assumes that a declaration was issued saying that Gustov had won the election for Ordermarshell in his realm, and that the bureaucrats in Morek did not look to closely as to who's seal was on the declaration, because they promptly stripped the old Morek Ordermarshell of his title and awarded it to Gustov.
Gustov, having been elected by the nobles of Entai, was made Ordermarshell of Morek, their enemies.
