"the explicit goal of destroying the hexarchate by going back in time and preventing its creation"
Does this mean preventing the creation of the hexarchate specifically (as distinct from the heptarchate), or the heptarchate too?
I guess what I'm really asking is, if my character was born during the heptarchate, are they preventing a dark future, or are they preventing the society they live in from coming about?
Great question. I think realistically I could see disagreements among the rebels about this. The heptarchate is not a great society either, but it's better in some regards than what follows. I saw the premise as more "preventing a dark future," perhaps with a side of "let's seed some reform from the beginning so the h*archate doesn't end up so awful," but I wouldn't rule out people with a philosophy of "let it all burn."
That's fine, yes--you can always use the 500 words of "tell me anything" to clarify any divergences between "this is what they think" and "this is what's probably actually going on" if you feel that's helpful.
