You’re right, it does seem extreme. Perhaps unused to such violence, the Empress overreacted in wanting to protect her people—I can’t make any claims, as I can hardly recall what she even looked like, and the only person from the Empire I know who is currently outside of it would happen to be Sir Chandius. I have never made the attempt, nor has he spoken of it in a forum I have heard of. He is rather private about the entire matter of his inability to return.
Other nations did attempt to send relief efforts and investigations for who could have been responsible, but the change was either too abrupt or they were refused. Various individuals went to provide help on their own, but a number of them may have been unable to leave once the borders were closed.
Regardless, we have heard nothing from within the Empire until this invitation.
