The Grand Clusterfuck of 290

The Grand Clusterfuck of 291, also known as the Battle of Windcliff, was a conflict that occured between 3 sides in the town of Windcliff in Lorent.

The Sides and their Motives
The main sides of the conflict were the Windcliff Loyalists, led by Makkis Pekkis. The Windcliff Rebels, led by Phoenix, and the Vastarokian Imperial Milita, led by Rogue_smile and MrClip.

The Windcliff Loyalists
The Windcliff Loyalists, led by Makkis Pekkis. Had the obvious motive of protecting Windliff and maintaining Makkis Pekkis as ruler.

The Windcliff Rebels
The Windcliff Rebels, led by Phoenix. Were motivated to leave Windcliff with a large ammount of its population, they were motivated by this due to Phoenix's view that the trial he was placed in was unfair, despite his defensive lawyers assurances.

The Imperial Militia of Vastarok
The Imperial Milita of Vastarok was drawn into the Conflict due to two of their citizens, RedSoldier, and RockRoo, being members of Lorent and the general wish in Vastarok to fight.

The Conflict
There were three stages of the conflict, the Raid, the Trial, and the Massacre.

The Raid
Vastarokian Forces arrived to find a large amount of Windcliff Loyalists grouping up around a building that the Priest Phoenix had barricaded himself in after a joke about Sacrificing Babies had gone wrong. The Conflict was initiated after a joke about sacrificing babies from Phoenix was taken a little too seriously and was forced to barricade himself inside his church. As he was surrounded by over a dozen Windcliff citizens Rogue_smile along with Crispy and Roqueza, citizens of Vastarok. After a short bit of chaotic fighting Phoenix surrendered himself and was taken to a church converted into a courtroom.

The Trial
After some questionable legal proceedings and Rogue_smile taking the position of Phoenixes Lawyer. Phoenix took a few supporters and fled the court. After several Opportunities from Makkis to turn himself in and assurances from Rogue that they would win as the Prosecution had little to no actual evidence Phoenix started a full out revolt who's goals were odd, as he told them to flee but several times returned to Windcliff. During one of these returns, the Vastarokian Militia members present attacked and killed both Phoenix and one of his guards. However his guard managed to kill Roqueza.

The Massacre
After tensions seemingly calmed down MrClip, a pvp oriented player who happened to command the Vastarokian Military. Returned to Vastarok with the previously mentioned Vastarokians. They were there to avenge Roquezas death by killing the guard of Phoenix. However this would quickly turn into conflict as the squad took on the entire online population of Windcliff, save Makkis Pekkis who Rogue Expressly ordered his men not to kill. After a 15 minute battle 10 (confirmed likely slightly more) Windcliffians laid dead an only 2 Vastarokians had been lost. This Battle is although a strategic victory for Vastarok, truly a victory for the Windcliff Loyalists as the Rebels took a great many Casualties

The Fallout
The fallout of the Battle was relatively insignificant, Rogue_smile apologized to Makkis Pekkis, who accepted it. And the Rebels were exiled from Windcliff. Although two Windcliffian-Vastarokian Citizens had participated on the side of Windcliff they were excused by Rogue_smile.
