The Conflict

The Engagement

Two hundred soldiers from King Ulon's force marched into Molomb and took captive all graces they found.
The move was an effort to bring more graces to King Ulon's academies, built to house and train graces so people are protected from their powers. Graces in the city were given two years to move to the academies of their own accord, but many remained behind in protest, not believing the king would actually follow up on his orders.
Unfortunately, those graces were wrong. Those that refused to go with the King's men peacefully were executed in the square.

Outcome

The city immediately split into two factions. Many praised the actions of the King, stating that they agreed, graces needed a place of their own. Just as many others argued that the King's academies are more like prisons, and more importantly, nothing justifies the systematic execution of several hundred innocent people.

Aftermath

The rebellion against the King, long scraping for support, used this event to rally their forces. They established themselves as guerilla activists in Molomb, sparking the King to increase military presence in the city.
