The Doxon family underwent a change.
And the main catalyst of that change was Ivan Doxon who began to try his possible best to convince as many as he could that Arryom's impressive display of strength and capability was nothing more than a fluke. One that had happened because he (Ivan) had let his guard down.
And had not been fully prepared to go in on the offensive.
Well, now his indecisiveness was gone.
He was ready to face his cousin head-on and after bringing together all those Doxon branch families he was sure were still on his side to form a faction that would try its absolute best to bring his cousin's faction to its knees, he formulated a plan.
The plan was fairly simple but at the same time elaborate.
It was to chip away at the support Artyom had. The support in the form of the faction behind him.
So far, the branch families had not actively fought against one another.
