The Lasting Light Battle

The Lasting Light Battle is a fictional battle that took place next to the Pawnee Buttes of the Pawnee National Grasslands of Colorado, U.S.A. in November of 1938, between outlaw Sam Wallace and the Lasting Lighters cultists.
== Battle ==
The battle took place near the Pawnee Buttes mountains within the eastern section of the Pawnee National Grassland of Weld County, Colorado, U.S.A. on November 4, 1938, coincidentally the same day another bloody shootout took place at an art gallery in Lost Heaven, Illinois, U.S.A..
The main fighting sides was an avenging outlaw named Sam Wallace, who came out of hiding after his father’s demise in Eternity Mines, Missouri, and the last resistance of the Lasting Lighters as well as paid-off lawmen from the nearby town of Greeley, being led by Jacob Edwards, the last remaining child of Virgil Edwards.
The battle grew to be very bloody and violent and it led to the loss of dozens of lives, including Edwards himself. Wallace survived and escaped over the state border into Wyoming.
== Aftermath ==
The Colorado State Patrol attempted to track down Wallace for the murders of dozens of lawmen, but were unable to pursue further as he had already escaped into Wyoming state boundaries. However, they called upon the FBI to track Wallace down, and they spent three years hunting him down across the country, but lost him in the Pacific Northwest area, allowing him time to relocate to the East Coast unnoticed.
The Lasting Lighters were officially wiped out, with Edwards himself being killed in action. This event invoked fear into the hearts of many who wandered the western prairies for many years until Sam’s myth and legend faded into obscurity, but immortalized into books relating to many tragic events, including the Battle of the Lasting Light.
