The rebellion attempt by 3 of the 7 exiled council members in Caripreet.


This rebellion was performed from the shadows, gathering support from skilled artisans within Caripreet that wished to return to their old culture, without being muddled by the Eldur Knights who, for all intents and purposes, presented themselves as individuals worthy of worship. The three "lords" in question were members of the late baron's council, and they despised both their replacements and the powers that put them there. Due to the new council being made of wealthy diplomats with stakes in every guild or shop in the city, the artisans seemed like the best bet for rallying support.   The new council sought to resolve the disparity between the commonfolk and skilled artisans, ensuring that the lower class would have more access to high-skill jobs in the city, hoping to push out more high quality goods from the city. The artisans would see their taxes nearly double so new programs could be made to see the council's goals come into fruition.    The rebellion was slow paced, growing across the city in silence until one fateful day when the keep was stormed by the members involved. No council members died, save for one gnome who was placed to represent the burrows in the Nadlewood strip. The leaders of the coup had gotten bad information about the ongoings in the keep, attacking when the other council members had been on a hunting trip. Aside from slaying a few servants, the mission was a complete failure. The guild members were chased down by the guards and herded into a false exit, where they descended into deep caverns. Upon reaching the bottom, the exit was sealed. What happened to the attackers is "unknown," as no one has reopened the death trap since.
