The Ephemeral War

The Ephemeral War from JoshTGS

The Ephemeral war was a war that lasted only one day between the team Silver Legion and Termina and the Guild of Destruction spanning the server 2b2tpe.org.

### The start of the war

Poplop201, the leader of Silver Legion, accidentally leaked Termina's base, Windfall a month or 2 prior, which gave him a bad outlook in the eyes of many in Termina (as stated in their FANDOM history). Months later, he state in one advertisement that Silver Legion was the number one group on 2b2tPE. Termina, did not like this, as they feel they were self-entitled for that position, and their council voted to send in a spy and destroy their own ally SL (Stated in their FANDOM history). Pop then suspected a spy, and thought that Termina members in SL were not helping the team enough, and so all members of SL who had also teamed with Termina were kicked from the Silver Legion, which was considered "unfair" and so the war began, with the Guild of Destruction joining Termina's side as they felt they were also the number one group.

The war with Silver Legion lasted only one day and in just that one day, Termina and the Guild Of Destruction had griefed most Silver Legion bases within a day, and Silver Legion collapsed. The allies were then united out of Silver Legion’s allied groups to fight Termina.

## The Day of Destruction

As Termina had many of its own members within Silver Legion previously, the locations of 8 Silver Legion bases were already known, leading to there immediate destruction of all 8. In less than a few hours, Silver Legion was destroyed and Poplop201 left, distraught by how Termina betrayed him ignoring that he was the reason for the war in the first place.

The player TJM and some members of allied groups of Silver Legion began the Allies to fight and avenge the destruction of Silver Legion, and they would fight Termina. TJM would then take on the roll of leader of thr Allied Forces. Some such as Brilliant, Nebula, and Galaxy joined for unrelated reasons (Unprovoked griefing of a Nebulan base on 2b2tmcpe, and racial tensions).

Two new teams, Tundra and Verum Dynasty joined DoS.

Three days later, Nebula raided the Tundra discord and forced them to make their discord private, lest they risk another raid. This decision caused them to die off.

TJM then invited T800 to join, under Poplop's recommendation. LT, the Nebulan leader, raised some concerns as T800 was friendly with Termina in the past, even visiting some bases, but this was shrugged off.

Toxic Raiders griefed Clocktown after someone "leaked it".

Gretta Clan's capital was griefed by Termina. After this, Gretta decided to appease Termina by giving Dragonflight and Cahruun admin permissions in the Gretta Clan discord. Tutu, his co-leader, said: "Termina was the best chance of survival for [his] clan cause they had people." Their discord got raided.

Wyvern's Order found a Termina outpost and griefed it.

GOD (Guild of Destruction) and Termina then founded, the Dynasty of Steel, DoS.

They then found TJM's stash/personal base, and griefed it thinking it was the Allies' capital.

Nebula then convinced Brilliant and Galaxy to join in, as DoS had announced many plans to wipe out non-English speakers, specifically the "Tais" (Chinese, Taiwanese, and any Asians) first. Not much activity arose on that front however, except for rampant racial slurs being used by DoS, and some spawn fighting.

At this point Nebula decided to leave as they had already accomplished their retaliation, and the war was becoming nothing more than a flame war at this point.

Right after, TJM would resign his ownership and leave anarchy as a whole for a time, leaving the player T800 in command, who was Termina's insider and griefed Iron Junction (Toxic Raiders' capital) (Edit from LT: I called it).

The Allies disbanded and the war came to an end. Poplop201 officially left 2b2tpe.org to re-create Sl on CPE, but wouldn't be gone too long.

DoS attempted to colonize CPE to destroy SL there once again, but this would not work, and SL died anyway. DoS eventually dissolved after a month, due to GOD becoming inactive and Turk and Cahruun arguing over leadership.

## Post-War

Most of the teams such as SL, Gretta Clan, Toxic Raiders, GOD, and Wyvern's Order disbanded or became inactive after this, but some teams such as Brilliant, Nebula, Galaxy, and Termina still survived. Not many new teams were created and started any wars until Cosmos was created by Lukie Pukie during The Sequential War.

With the war ended and Poplop gone the server entered a state of “peace”, with no large conflicts occurring for over a month.
