The Dispute of Camp Mugwort was a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undeclared_war#:~:text=An%20undeclared%20war%20is%20a%20military%20conflict%20between,or%20conflict%20fought%20about%20without%20an%20official%20declaration. undeclared war] between Slum Bogart of The River'Reach and The Holy Heliolunam Celestium focused primarily over the Toad Mines of Camp Mugwort.

The rise of border tensions between Celestial and Riverfolk would see House Dogwood and House Emberwynn demand annexation over the Bogart Claims.

Heliolunam Ultimatum
On 8/5/22, Lady Von Dogwood and Willow Emberwynn from The Holy Heliolunam Celestium would discover the Slum Mines of Camp Mugwort. A Toad Mine that laid perpendicular to a Celestial Cliff face with simple outlines intended for a Emberwynn Tower,

The Celestial pair, having reasoned that Heliolunam was owed divine right over the entire mountain area between Bogart and Castle Dogwood by their goddess Cynosure, would assertively enter the Toad Slums and censure Slumin Chu of Bogart into the Throne room of Castle Dogwood for denouncement.

Without any notice to River'Reach Nation Leader Argon Archian, the Heliolunam nobles would present the Toadman an ultimatum: Forceful Heliolunam Annexation or the complete removal of Camp Mugwort and Bogart Agricultural water fields that touched the mountain.

An ultimatum that Slumin Chu would reject.

Emberwynn Curse
Upon hearing Bogart's rejection, Lady Von immediately ordered Willow Emberwynn to enact a curse upon Bogart that would poison the Marshlands until given a surrender.

Curse Appearance
The curse itself would come in the form of purple tendrils that would spread from the mountain side of Camp Mugwort.

It would be amalgamation of netherrack, amethyst, and dead vegetation. Said curse was to corrupt the disputed land and coerce the Toadmen into submission.

Consequences
The River'Reach would view the actions of the Curse as a direct attack upon it's borders and assert that the Celestials have no right to force such demands.

The curse itself caused great distress to the local fauna, as well as closing down the Slum Mines temporarily while the curse steadily coursed itself over the mountain face and split into ground with eerie tendrils of purplish arcana.

Bogart Action
Slumin Chu upon returning would go on to pen two essays on the matter: Bogart Cursed! and Mugwort Claims to send news of Heliolunam's aims and dispute the Celestial's claims over the entire mountain.

"Bogart Cursed!" would issue a closed border policy to all traders and travelers entering Bogart whilst the Emberwynn Curse was still active.

"Mugwort Claims" would be distributed to the local settlements of the River Kunami defending the rights of Toad ownership over Camp Mugwort.

Arcane aid
Slumin Chu would consult the Citadel of Stars for more information on the Curse with little to no luck on finding a solution. It would be the Mountainside City-State of Mora that would provide relief in the shape of magical stones shaped by the Stone Witch Nihilla Eleanora that sought to at least alleviate some burdens of the curse.
