'''New Monarchy''' | The '''New Monarchy''' was one of the factions of the [[Last City]], dedicated to protecting Humanity and intent on cultivating a new [[Golden Age]].

==History== | |||
The New Monarchy rose from the chaos of the [[Faction Wars]] with a simple, inclusive guiding tenet: "Together we will rise". Cautious of the fragile state of the City's politics, the New Monarchy maintained a watchful eye on the [[Speaker]], the [[Consensus]], and the [[Vanguard]]. They sought strong leadership that would reign over the City and return civilization to its Golden Age splendour. To New Monarchy, if successful leadership could not be found, then it must be created. Members of New Monarchy are known for their ambition, drive and executive legal powers. New Monarchy was also well known for arming any Guardians of [[The Last City]] who were willing to fight to reclaim the solar system. | |||
Despite being wary of the Consensus, New Monarchy and the Guardians who pledged themselves to the faction are credited for laying the killing blow to the traitor [[Lysander]] and his [[Concordat]], who sought to overthrow the Consensus and the Speaker, at [[Bannerfall]], during the [[Faction Wars]]. | |||
===The Red War=== | |||
When the [[Red Legion]] invaded the Last City, New Monarchy forces evacuated many civilians to safe areas outside the City, such as [[The Farm]]. They were involved in a number of other relief efforts during the [[Red War]], even claiming to have done more than any of the other factions combined. However, following the reclamation of the Last City from the [[Cabal]], New Monarchy began to struggle in gaining new followers, as a new "power to the people" movement inspired by [[Suraya Hawthorne]], among others, began to spread among the populace. During this time, some within the City began stealing supplies from New Monarchy, claiming to be following "Hawthorne's lead". Despite this, New Monarchy set up a recruiting stand and new base of operations in the Bazaar, part of the Vanguard's [[Tower (Destiny 2)|new Tower]]. | |||
Along with the other factions of the City, New Monarchy participated in a number of [[Faction Rallies]] in the year following the end of the [[Red War]]. | |||
===Season of the Splicer=== | |||
During the events of [[Season of the Splicer]], New Monarchy allied itself with [[Lakshmi-2]] and the [[Future War Cult]] in protest of the [[Vanguard|Vanguard's]] decision to grant asylum to the [[House of Light]]. This alliance soon lead to an attempted coup against the Vanguard and a [[Vex]] incursion into the [[Eliksni Quarter]] of the City. Both the coup and Vex attack were swiftly thwarted by the Guardians. New Monarchy, along with the other factions, fled the City soon after. The current whereabouts of [[Executor Hideo]] and other New Monarchy leadership is unknown. | |||
