OK, so we can be reasonably sure there's some kind of distraction or detention.
OK, more questions:
1) Are the undead heroes active while Maximus rests? Are any of them politically active (i.e. part of the rebellion, sitting in the senate, supporting a particular faction, related to a senator, etc.)?
2) Are any of the soldier breeds (and possible other kinds of breeds?) more or less privileged than others?
3) Are there any notable factions in the senate? Has any expressed dissent at a decision made by Maximus?
4) Are there any public factions amongst the priesthood? If not, is it possible to read between the lines and identify possible factions?
5) Are there any details on the security of Maximus's temples? If entry into his temple is enough to gain his attention, maybe we could try breaking in which would definitely get his attention.
I'll do five research rolls for each question, and add a Memetics roll for 3 and 4 (4 indicated I'll try reading between the lines, for 3 I imagine that dissent might not be public).
