− His son Julius, a recent graduate of the ''Collegium Bellorum Imperium'', had been recently promoted to command a [[Century (Military Unit)|century]] in the First Legion. He quickly gained the attention of several powerful military leaders and Senators as well as attracting the notice of those working against Sean. Sean responded to Julius' rise by posting him out of the First Legion, promoting him to command the second [[cohort]] of the Second Legion. Julius' transfer and promotion were an effort to secure his own safety, but proved to be a significant mistake on Sean's part; the Second was based on the Lothian world of [[Lordinax]], and Julius' arrival in June [[3060]] marked a turning point in his rise.<ref name="FM:Pp71">''Field Manual: Periphery'', p. 71: "Empire Building"</ref> + His son Julius, a recent graduate of the ''Collegium Bellorum Imperium'', had been recently promoted to command a [[century]] in the First Legion.

When Julius arrived, the Second Legion was suffering repeated attacks from rebel forces and was rapidly becoming demoralized. Sean's first orders were for Julius to be sent on punitive raids against a number of Lothian settlements believed to be harboring rebels, a campaign that Sean hoped would either see Julius killed or toughened up; instead, it led Julius to begin openly questioning the occupation of the League and his father's decisions.<ref name="FM:Pp71"/> When Julius arrived, the Second Legion was suffering repeated attacks from rebel forces and was rapidly becoming demoralized.
