I hope so!
One of the "ubertales" in the GAC is the disintegration of the Lunar Empire
when the Emperor fails to return. Since he is the pinnacle of the military
and organized state religion, there are many political entities (the
satraps, armies,) and spiritual entities (cults, "religions") that struggle
for "top down" leadership and control, while many ethnic groups normally
divided by the imperial policy of "divide and conquer" strive for unity, or
dominance, or independence...

Yes, she is one power among many.
And would you believe that significant individuals even from the Lesilla and
Zaytenera culs refuse her right of rule!
