Although driven back, Cromwell survived the encounter and turned to Divine Providence for aid.  Gaining the support of the Scottish Witch Finders they soon discover that those of True faith have better defence against the fey and this helps them to push back into Wales. However before they can continue on to the rebellion of Cornwall, the lost land of  Lyonnes rises up from the sea opening portals to the Feywild and creating a land bridge across the English Channel. With the portals open all kinds of Fey and giants return to claim Lyonnes, some expanding into Ireland (which Cromwell is thus unable to subdue) and others heading to other parts of the world. The Lord Protector squirms as Old Shuck once more terrorizes the moors and goblins infest the sewers of Manchester, he thus looks to Belgium and the other Low Countries to form a broader Protestant alliance against the corruption which becomes The Commonwealth Protectorate.As Fey and Witch-finder forces clash in the Protectorate Lands, Witches and lesser beings flee into Europe. In southern Europe the Grand Inquisitor becomes Pope and pushing up to claim France for the Holy Catholic Church declares a holy war against the Protectorate heresy whilst secretly making pacts with demons. Elsewhere the Undead Lords beyond the Carpathians muster their forces, offering a refuge to those accused of witchcraft and lycanthropy, while old gods stir in the slavic lands and the Ottomans lead clockwork armies, while flying in, riding gryphons and magical carpets.</blockquote>
