**The Stolen Iron Scuffle** was a war declared on Day 91 between FrozenFortress and the combined forces of Business Bay, Gambojeistan, and Bosnia. The war also included a minor conflict between Business Bay and Purpled of Log Lagoon, which was solved fairly quickly.

## Cause

Business Bay rejects a request from GrunksPromise for iron, so his faction mate, Purpled, decides to steal some from the Bay. Quig, also in need of iron, asks TommyInnit if he could borrow any, to which Tommy responds that he would kill him should he attempt to steal any. Quig jokingly quips back at Tommy, asking if he "[thinks] a 15 year old can kill a 16 year old." He later finds iron, but remarks that Tommy probably still thinks he stole from the Bay. Tommy later catches Purpled looking through their iron chests while crafting a bucket to save TimeDeo from a pit. After Deo is saved, he expresses his wish to kill some players, to which Tommy exclaims that they should kill Purpled for stealing from Business Bay. The two players grab their equipment and ready themselves for war.

## The War

Tommy and Deo catch Purpled in the ocean near the coast of Business Bay trying to escape. They pursue him, and Deo swiftly eliminates Purpled with his [v u b e a x e]. The duo exclaim that "you don't steal from [Business Bay] and get away with it." The two would jest with Purpled and Quig, and they would gather at Business Bay to talk after a brief airplane chase. Quig lands on the roof of Tommy's house and insists that he didn't steal from the Bay, to which Deo responds by climbing up to attack him. Quickly realizing that he is ill-equipped to face Quig, Deo flees. Quig soon realizes he unable to harm the members of Business Bay because they are not enemied, and is chased into the air by a raging TommyInnit.

While in the air, Quig enemies Business Bay, and attempts to shoot the pursuing TommyInnit. Quig befriends Purpled, requesting that he help fight the Bay, Tommy taunts him, remarking that he is scared. Quig points out the the major difference in their level of gear, remarking that Tommy has golden apples while he doesn't. Deo then shanks an friendly Tubbo, who had just joined the scene, for his better armour. The group engage in another skirmish, with Tommy pushing Quig into a corner, forcing him to use an ender pearl to escape. Deo chases down and once again kills Purpled with his axe. Tommy is unable to catch up to Quig, and he is once again able to retreat into the skies to replenish his health.

Purpled and Quig join a VC and make a verbal agreement to strike back at Business Bay once they are stronger. Tommy enters Deo's basement to grab more supplies and messages Thunder1408 for assistance. Quig touches down and targets Deo, attempting to kill him. He is unsuccessful, as Deo eats a golden apple and pearls away. With Tommy on his tail, Quig pearls into the forest and starts placing lava in an attempt to slow the members of Business Bay down. He makes his way to the coast and pearls into the water to take time to regenerate, but is quickly followed by Tommy, who is armed with a Riptide Trident. Quig and Tommy engage each other in melee combat, before Quig realizes he is outclassed by Tommy. He employs a different strategy, clinging to the sea bed and swimming around sea grass and kelp to avoid Tommy's swings. Quig attempts to contact VoiceOverPete for golden apples, but receives no response. He is able to buy enough time to build a platform and take off in a plane, but not without having Thunder jump in with him. Quig then ejects, sending his plane and Thunder into a different direction. He is able to pearl onto land and safely take into the air in his plane.
