So that means I can have a story arc where a punitive graal invasion that may or may not be the result of something by faction did and to fight them off a group of investors within the HN wanting to increase the harmony decide to try getting one of newsun's giant squid people of the warlord variety involved?

And totally doesn't involve any secret ploys at the same time to get their leathery hands on the squid suit.

None. Absolutely none.
