The Rebel forces were comprised of the garrison of Fionnbryn Keep, overseen by local landowner Kjolt947 of Kjahog Gruppel.

	When jusipat leaked the imminent Rebellion of the Great Forest, bcfoss immediately removed his retinue from Fionnbryn and proceeded posthaste eastward towards Mrag, the sole loyalist settlement in the region. By the time ~~hostilities~~ started, he had only made it as far as the outskirts of [[The Gragelplace]].

By the time fighting had started in Poitevine, he had only made it as far as the outskirts of [[The Gragelplace]].

	=== ~~Siege~~ of Poitevine ===		=== Battle of Poitevine ===
	Poitevine was destroyed from flying players at this time. Many NPC's were killed, and builds in the city were destroyed. The chaos was exacerbated by the fact that Poitevine's defense force took time to join the rebellion's NPC faction, flufyking took advantage of this by lavaing passive Poitevine soldiers in faction limbo, to the consternation of jusipat.

	It was at this time that jusipat elected to pursue a dirt war strategy in reaction to the severity of the attacks against Poitevine. To him, it was obvious that the rebellion would be destroyed so thoroughly, proving reconcilliation impossible with the loyalists. He therefore believed this arbitrary destruction of such a large portion of the Empire's economy would consquently cause the empire to collapse and that this process should be accelerated by engaging in total war. During the total destruction of Poitevine, jusipat managed to sneak into the empire's mountain and destroy everything he possibly could. This began the trend of total war which would marr the server until its closure.

			===Interference of the Hallowed Vale===
			Concurrently with the assault on Poitevine, Flufyking was confronted by a force of dragonriders from the Hallowed Vale. It is unknown whether the dragonriders made demands of the Empire or attacked immediately, but soon an aerial battle erupted above Karaz Wyr.

			Both the Empire and the Hallowed Vale possessed two dragonriders each. It is difficult to gauge their relative strength, but the Imperials were caught off-guard as they were already invested in the Battle of Poitevine. Despite the Imperials' precarious position, the interlopers suffered the first casualty when one of their dragonriders was struck down by a spell(?). This alone might not have been enough to deter the Hallowed Vale from further attacks, but the aerial battle was ended definitively when Flufyking used a safari net to rip the remaining hostile dragon from the sky and dash the rider to pieces on the mountain slopes below. Having lost two dragons and a wealth of valuable equipment, the Hallowed Vale accepted the Emperor's request for a truce in return for the right to reclaim their lost equipment.

			After the truce the dragonriders of the Hallowed Vale did not leave the Empire immediately, but instead loitered in Kjahog Gruppel for several days. Perhaps taking advantage of Kjolt947's ambiguous stance towards the Empire, they attempted to coerce tribute from him and ultimately killed him before departing for the Hallowed Vale.

			===Arrival of Wikaros===
			By the time the Fionnic army reached Poitevine, the city was already a ruin. There were dragons in the sky at this time, although it is unclear whether the aerial battle was still in progress. Wikaros was at a loss in the face of the chaos unfolding around Poitevine, eventually deciding to abandon the city to it's fate and march on Karaz Wyr itself.

			He approached Karaz Wyr via it's eastern slope, but encountered the Imperial Guard half-way up the mountain. Wikaros was not certain of the identity of the 'twenty to thirty men' holding position on the slope, but ordered a charge anyways. At some point during or immediately before the melee Saucy_Tacos cast a poison mist spell over the Fionnic army to great effect, offsetting the numerical superiority of the rebels. Wikaros was slain in the fighting, along with most of his men.

			== Rest Action ==
			Though the scattered rebel forces were utterly destroyed, the Empire was also completely ravaged. No peace treaty was signed, as the rebel forces once again concentrated over the coming days to regain strength. Conversely, the material losses of the Empire were so significant that its most loyal subjects were demoralised to the point of rarely playing on the server again.

			The former rebels would go on to form the [[DBF]] organisation, and eventually the formal nation of [[Slamdunker]].

Advancing southward down main street, the first signs of resistance were detected when archers stationed on the walls of the keep began taking potshots at the army, forcing bcfoss to fall back to the defensive position at the town square. A request was made for reinforcements, but the fighting around Poitevine was well under way and no forces could be spared.

	~~TO BE CONTINUED~~...		After some deliberation, bcfoss launched a second assault on the keep under heavy arrow-fire and succeeded in storming the gatehouse. The fionnic archers manning the walls were slaughtered and the viceroyal retinue proceeded into the keep proper, clearing the structure room-by-room. The retinue only faced real peril in the throne-room, where a concentration of elite fionns affected a true melee; bcfoss was almost slain in the chaos, but ultimately loyalist forces prevailed.

			After reporting his success to the emperor, bcfoss stationed his retinue on the southern gate to guard against a potential counter-attack from Gruppel and began razing the city. The Great Pig in particular was singled out for destruction, while the Mundic Temple was spared altogether.

			As the city was starting to burn a battle erupted at the southern gate. Members of the Fionnbryn garrison, absent from the city for unknown reasons, suddenly returned and assaulted the viceroyal retinue. Fighting was fierce and the fionns briefly retook the gate for a time, during which Sergeant Gregory was killed. With the arrival of bcfoss the battle quickly turned against the fionns, who managed to flee into the city's northern quarter before being cut down. This would mark the end of fighting in the southern theatre.
