On 4 June, 2021, several citizens of the village of Saladistan set out to kill the notorious Ender Dragon, which resided in the End dimension.

The 5-member entente which carried out this attack consisted of whoori, Ultin42069, Sashie Bunny and Fighter69 of Saladistan and Batmannn of Wayne Enterprises. The Ender Dragon was swiftly defeated in less than 5 minutes, with Sashie landing the last hit on the dragon. Afterwards, it was decided that the Dragon Egg would be kept in the possession Sashie.

## Background

Attempts to fight and kill the Ender Dragon have been discussed several times before in Saladistan. The Stronghold had been discovered by whoori as early as 23 January, and most members of the server were well overprepared to fight the Ender Dragon.

Though many players such as whoori, ShxdyMemester and RX8 were well overprepared to fight the Ender Dragon, whoori wished to wait and fight the dragon later, because Sashie's laptop was currently broken and she was unable to play, and to give newer players more time to prepare for the fight. RX8, on the other hand, disagreed with whoori and wished to fight the Ender Dragon and explore the End as soon as possible. This was one of the factors contributing to The War Against RX8.

In February, efforts to fight the Ender Dragon would further be delayed due to the outbreak of the Pablo War. Ultin wished to postpone fighting the Ender Dragon until the war was over, for example. By May, the First Pablo War was long over, and the war effort had died out. With the war out of the way, citizens of Saladistan began arranging plans for an attack on the Ender Dragon, at long last. Eventually, June 4th was selected as the date to fight the Ender Dragon.

## The battle begins

The 5 members of the brigade eventually set out for The Stronghold, which was several blocks away from Saladistan. All members agreed to travel by foot, rather than by teleporting. Fighter69 tamed a horse to travel to the stronghold faster, but had to leave the horse behind in order to cross the ocean. Fighter69 would eventually come back for the horse and name it Stanley. Ultin42069 also discovered the Aeroacian Islands on the way, which at the time was just a few floating islands in the sky of a shattered savanna biome.

Eventually, all 5 players united at the Stronghold. The Keep Pablo and Free Pablo factions formed during the Pablo War were formally disbanded after weeks of inactivity. After Ultin gave one last inspiring speech, the 5 of them jumped into the End Portal, and for the first time, a citizen of Saladistan set foot in the End.

The five slowly but surely met with the infamous Ender Dragon, the ruler of the End. Immediately, the brigade began their attack. After an intense fight, the Ender Dragon was swiftly defeated in less than 5 minutes, with Sashie landing the last hit on the dragon. whoori was lagging very badly the entire time, and was hardly able to land a single hit on the dragon, much to his displeasure.

## Aftermath

Once the Ender Dragon was defeated, she dropped a ton of EXP and the fabled Dragon Egg. Sashie took the honors of being the first to hold the egg. The other four players then took turns holding the egg in their hands, symbolizing their victory over the Ender Dragon, before returning the egg back to Sashie. With this, the five players jumped into the End Portal once again, sending them back to the Overworld.

Shortly after returning to the Overworld, the Second Pablo War broke out, after Pablo's Shrine was blown up by daniel1234, and the Keep Pablo and Free Pablo alliances were quickly reestablished. This would eventually lead to the death of Pablo at the hands of Batmannn. Due to this, June 4th subsequently became a historic day for Saladistan, but for the death of Pablo rather than the defeat of the Ender Dragon.
