The Worker Rebellions occured during the reign of High Clerist Kyrill. Hundreds of workers from all across the Coalition rebelled against the Inetist religion and the government formed around it. This all started from some unknown group of people coming home to the Coalition from the Jade Blade Tavern in Sector H, where apparently the Inetist ideals were scrutinized and fell apart.
These "missionaries" caused people to leave their jobs to seek out all the Inetists and destroy them. Priests and believers were shot in the streets, stoned in the Inetist temples, and imprisoned in captured prisons.
A small number of Loyalists commandeered a portion of the Chilkit fleet. At this time, High Clerist Kyrill, sensing the tide in battle turning in favor of the Workers, betrayed the Inetists. He led the remaining military to the Loyalists' staging grounds in the Kriost system. A large battle ensued where the remaining Loyalists and Inetists were destroyed.
This tramatic event had a ripple effect. This was the trigger event that set the Coalition up for tremendous upheavals as long-held societal beliefs were shattered by the Greater Galaxy's truth.
