Blood River Night

Political event

Massacre of the noble families opposed to the Greyger family taking over the government.

Hungry for power, Seth and Elluka Greyger corrupted and influenced different families, including the Venomania one who had connections to the Red Cat Army, in order to eliminate the families opposed to the Greyger family taking over the government.
  The massacre started in the late afternoon and ended at dawn the next day, counting up to a total of over a hundred lives lost, as soldiers also killed civilians and servants related to the assassinated families. It was called the Blood River Night, in reference to the Orgo River that had turned red that night. Among the decimated families were the Albard, Blankenheim and Freezis , three of the nine main noble families.
  During this same night, Thiebaut Averet Greyger , Elluka’s five years old son, vanishes and all written traces of him disappear as well. Instead, a child named Averet Eugen Greyger takes his place as successor to the newly founded Bolgania monarchy. No further explanation will be given by the Greyger family and all attempts at discovering the truth have ended in inexplicable death.
  Following this event, the Circle Order was created.
  Killed: over a hundred individuals, including the Albard, Blankenheim and Freezis families.
Wounded: Lemy Albard
Unknown: Thiebaut Averet Greyger
