Fire of New Hybris

The Great Fire of New Hybris (Confotia Novohybrilaudi) was a disaster that befell the city of Novohybrilaudum in 242 KOR, destroying a third of the city and killing 500 people. The fire was stalled by a hurricane making landfall, the first hurricane to hit New Hybris, which also did severe damage to the Hybretian Navy before making landfall again in Kolangrad and causing severe structural damage to The Citadel. 
In the wake of the disaster, conservative elements in the General's Council have blamed the King, Daelin I, for trying to change the Hybretian way of life and causing ire to the gods. Further blame was laid on the alliance with the Templari'i Republic, who the clergy accused of sacriledge for taking the names of the gods. In order to aide in quick reconstruction, troops were moved from the colonies of Taris and Endiolaudum to clean up the city and maintain the peace.
