Operation Kiesfall





Background
For multiple days, Capna (a bandit) had done multiple skirmishes with the Andorn Legion and especially the city of Hinomir. Capna would ravage the city killing all civilians in his path. These skirmishes would occur because of the illegitimate land claim in the province of Askonia that Capna created and the Ryzan Coup. In response to Capna's relentless attacks against Hinomir, Archon Duel123abc and Archon Patch decided to plant a trap in Hinomir to kill the bandit.

Planning
Multiple tests were completed in the city of Orilin where duel's weapon research lab worked the specifics of the trap. Finally, after multiple beta tests on different trap items, duel finished testing and built the trap in Hinomir. This was a classified operation that only top Hinomir officials and Andorn military members had access to. It would later be revealed the OnMarz would be secretly in talks with Capna regarding the military situation, but successful security prevented the data from being leaked.

First Battle of Hinomir
On 9/9/2021, Qwerty14 of Hinomir spotted Capna outside of Hinomir. Frantically alerting Andorn military of the imminent attack, Qwerty14 forgot to use secure channels and chatted in the public-discord chat. This would cause Capna to pull away saying, "I don't kill people without enchanted armor." This sparked an investigation in Andorn military because Capna has always previously killed gearless people, and never pulled out of an attack. This investigation would not start until after the battle. Not deterred that the trap in Hinomir was leaked, Andorn Military officials agreed to keep the trap and wait anouther day.

Second Battle of Hinomir
On 9/10/2021, Hasan2016 of Hinomir spotted Capna the following day. He alerted Qwerty14, duel123abc, and Patch of Hinomir being attacked. Unfortunately, Hasan2016 was slaughtered by Capna, but managed to delay Capna from fleeing the town. Qwerty14 logged on and began running around the city to keep Capna from leaving. In just enough time, Qwerty14 got Capna into the trap and duelabc123 triggered the trap. duel123abc and Patch surrounded Capna above the trap and began to use bows to kill Capna. In less than a minute, Capna was cut down by the Andorn soldiers which suffering no casualties. It is said by eyewitnesses that Capna never potted or tried to escape the trap, but tunnel visioned on killing Qwerty14. Capna did not realize that other Andorn soldiers were killing him until he was halfway through his health bar supposedly. Andorn soldiers would do a complete perimeter check of the city and divide up the spoils amongst themselves.

Aftermath
Following the battle, Lucius Von Savras knighted Hasan2016, Qwerty14, duel123abc, and Patch for their heroism in stopping Capna's reign of terror. It is estimated that 1 million dollars of item value was recovered from Capna's body and the recovery of Hasan2016's lost items. Banditing throughout Andorn and especially Hinomir drastically decreased as it was later found that Capna was broke from the battle. Multiple of Capna's bandit friends would leave the land claim of Septa following the battle, and Ulfaeng ranked Capna as one of their lowest PVP members. Capna would not step back into Hinomir to raid afterwards. It is said that he pinged multiple members of Ulfaeng begging for more resources and equipment.

Investigation
After the result of the First Battle of Hinomir, Andorn officials launched a full investigation of how Capna did not attack. It would later be known that 2 of Capna's banditing friends had snuck onto the server a month prior and had not been properly banned. Later, OnMarz would send a message in Andorn Legion chat after the Second Battle of Hinomir that Capna messaged him a threat about the trap. This sparked suspicion that OnMarz would receive messages from Capna since he is a less prominent member of Andorn military or government. After extensive investigation, it would be found out that OnMarz would be communicating in secret with Capna for multiple days citing that Andorn and Capna were both providing false information and supposedly "server rule breaks." and wanted to know the full truth from biased sources. OnMarz decided to declare neutrality as an Andorn citizen and was discharged from the military.
