I played a „quick“ three handed game of Oath this afternoon to get back into it for the forum campaign 
It was the Oath of the People that the Chancellor had sworn and it seemed easy to them to just hold the People’s Favor. But then their old friend Citizen Dark Hood started dabbling in arcane magics and snagged the Darkest Secret to get into position to become the successor.
For several years the chancellor brooded how to best hold the citizen in check while Exile Bluebird meandered about the Hinterlands seemingly doing nothing but trying to bring order to the outer reaches of the Empire. So the chancellor was content to ignore them.
But in the fourth year of the chancellor’s reign Exile Bluebird abandoned their Order pursuits and formed a conspiracy to take the Darkest Secret from the designated successor… the Chancellor (formerly know as Cloudy White) was actually relieved that the exile solved their biggest problem for them just before that fateful roll of the die… until Bluebird also gained the People’s favor by spending their coin from Order’s favor freely.
So even though the chancellor’s armies controlled huge swathes of land, they were not keeping their Oath and suddenly their position was even more precarious than before. If Bluebird won, the Empire would fall apart because–in a twist of irony–they had no armies to keep any order at all.
So the Chancellor ordered a huge banquet be held for everyone to remind them of Memories of Home and indeed the favor returned to the Hearth bank and deprived the rebellious nobles of further resources. Thus the chancellor’s coffers filled to bursting and they easily regained the People’s Favor. But now the people had turned into an unruly mob and switched their allegiance at every turn it seemed. It was only a matter of time until Bluebird realized they only had to have their funds ready at the right moment.
Then Citizen Dark Hood renewed their arcane efforts and with the help of the Great Spire they returned the Alchemists from the Dispossessed. As their knowledge increased rapidly with three arcane advisors the Darkest Secret returned to their possession, they were also once again threatening to dispose of the chancellor from within their own ranks.
And before the chancellor could act upon that new threat, Bluebird began attacking their armies to gain a more permanent foothold.
And yet, Dark Hood was the more immediate threat and so the next year the chancellor spent their treasury to exile Dark Hood believing they could once again hold a state banquet to sway the people to their side. But the enraged former citizen used their powers to wage war upon the chancellor and his lands to take the Scepter from them and become a citizen yet again. When the war effort failed, they went to the Tribunal and promised Bluebird help if only they would end the reign of the Chancellor. And so with combined forces they took down Chancellor Cloudy at the very last moment returning the People’s Favor to the visionary from the Hinterlands.
(Having the same vision as the Oathkeeper was a really weird turn of events)
A lot of land and its denizens were lost in this fateful campaign of Blue and Black vs the Chancellor.
The lesson of the story is: do not exile the vengeful magicians
