Political event
With the assistance of the adventuring party that would go on to defeat Shepherd, Dorian Havik was able to finally succeed in his deposing of the much disliked King Snowthorne of Crucible.
Dorian's claim to the throne was based in his relation to the original king of Crucible, Tron Renaren. At least, that is what the documentation Dorian had in his position seems to indicate. The documents legitimacy was confirmed during Dorian's challenge, but a more thorough investigation was never conducted.
