− In the chaos that followed the elimination of Amaris, the Light Horse returned to the Rasalhague district awaiting orders from [[Aleksandr Kerensky|General Kerensky]]. They received orders to join the other [[Star League Defense Force]] units in leaving the [[Inner Sphere]]. The Light Horse's attachment to the area was stronger than its loyalty to Kerensky and they decided to remain—only a few lances of the RCT left with the other SLDF units.
