...what?

In one of the few things it does go into detail on, the games makes the following fairly clear

Havelock makes a power play with Burrows, and when it's rejected, he resigns his comission. Havelock then makes plans with Martin, an ambitious Overseer, and Treavor Pendleton, a noble who wants to rise out from under his brothers. Together, under the pretext (and perhaps even with a genuine desire) of restoring the "rightful" ruler to the throne, they take steps to locate and recover Emily, to set her up as Empress, exploiting her youth and inexperience to place themselves in positions of power, vacated through the assassinations carried out by Corvo.
