The Conquest of Scæþing, sometimes also called the LWE (Lamest War Ever), was a short conflict between [[Tianchao]] and [[Lûl]] over the largely abandoned island of Scæþing following its desertion following the [[Massacre on Midway]] and a large part of its playerbase moving to the capital of [[Tianchao]]. The war ended in decisive victory for the forces of Lûl, and the entire island and the surrounding island chains were absorbed into the Lûlian Imperium.

History

Preparation for War

For as long as a week before the war happened, it was clear to both Tianchao and Lûl that a war for Scæþing was on the horizon. The western half of Scæþing which contained all the old buildings and ruins was abandoned, and all valuable items were relocated as Tianchao's population focused on improving the capital. Lûl claimed the eastern tip of Scæþing island and built some fortifications there, but for about a week after that there were few developments on the island.

Eventually, Tianchao revisited Scæþing to begin building infrastructure for a new city. DaLogangster was discovered to have been squatting in the government building within Tianchao's borders, so a few building materials from his chest were taken in order to continue construction on the island. This sparked some controversy with jusipat and significantly ramped up tensions between Lûl and Tianchao. Lûl claimed the rest of the eastern side of the island and built a large tower near the border, and Wikaros built a road leading directly to the edge of the claimed chunks.

At this time, Tianchao believed that the imminent war was to be a conventional war. Both sides promised to keep the war on Scæþing until one side was forced to retreat. They set up an underground bunker with horses, unaware to the fact that jusipat had obtained a magic invisibility mirror and was scouting out the bunker as they were building it. Propaganda pamphlets were dropped from the sky via airplane as both sides were preparing for battle.

After Wikaros declared war, the forces of Tianchao roamed around their side of the island on horseback, hoping to lure in an assault from the enemy. Instead, bcfoss sat inside his tower on the border and struck everyone down with lightning. Furthermore, jusipat, who was completely invisible, ravaged the bunker as soon as war was declared. The situation was made even more infurating when Wikaros had to leave for chores. Kjolt947 remained on Scæþing for most of the war, occasionally distracting bcfoss or jusipat to ensure they wouldn't move the war towards Lengshan. Cflip_ was able to get bcfoss killed by standing right under him as he rained down lightning, but since the bunker was destroyed and Cflip_'s respawn point was in Lengshan, Tianchao was unable to take bcfoss's magic items.

Peace Treaty

Tianchao was forced to surrender and make peace. Originally, bcfoss planned to annex all of Tianchao's territory and enslave its citizens, however jusipat urged bcfoss not to take their capital province. Tianchao got away with keeping Lengshan, however Scæþing and Lü Hangye were ceded to Lûl.
