The Magestrix began rebuilding the Magistracy Royal Guards swiftly after the end of the Jihad; [[Major]] [[Jeremy Raventhir]] was moved out of the [[1st Raventhir Cuirassiers]] to become the commanding officer of the reconstituted Raventhir's Iron Hand, with elite personnel from across the [[Magistracy Armed Forces]] joining the top-ranking cadets from the [[Emma Centrella Martial Academy]] to form the new Iron Hand. For his actions during the Jihad [[Colonel]] [[Lane Meisel]] of the 1st Canopian Cuirassiers was awarded the ruby [[Canopus Cluster]] (without having to pay the customary "donation"), the [[Fist of Raventhir]] and, somewhat controversially, the [[Ribbon of the Magestrix]]. Colonel Meisel was then promoted to [[General]] Meisel and appointed commanding officer of the Magistracy Royal Guards Brigade. Colonel Goss of the 2nd Canopian Cuirassiers was appointed executive officer to General Meisel, with command of the 2nd passing to Colonel [[Joseph Wulf]].<ref name="FM:3085p138+"/>
