Cataclysm

The Cataclysm was a long series of events occuring in the year 2020. The Cataclysm began with the Coronavirus Pandemic which killed 10 people by May, and an additional 10 by November, and over 100 people infected, thus closing outside trade.

#### Cataclysmic Comet

Then there was the Cataclysmic Comet Strike, which landed in Poly Inlet and sprang up enormous ice spikes (similar to that of a Bewilderbeast's) and decimated forests and natural lands everywhere, destroying many feet of Frapple land.

#### The Wolves Arrive

To to add to it, came the Wolves of the Wolven Dreadfort, intent on taking back their homeland, returned to Mistui and laid seige to Eredwak, Scotlorian, and Gautamtown They got the Gautamtowners to evacuate mostly to Eredwak.

#### The Civil War Comes

After this came the Pointless War and the Civil Battle which tore Mistui apart, as General Ekrijfiat attempted to invade Tanishatown using the Super Laser under "orders" from a influenced King Jason. When the Phoenixian fleet set sail it was quickly intercepted by the force of Scotlorian's army, which tried desperately to stop it from reaching the southern end of the Archipelago, but clearly Phoenix was stronger and was able to push through. the Scotlorian army followed them in their navy and engaged them at the Spikerocks outside of Dragon Island before the Phoenixians finally got through, only to be met by the Dragons of Tanishatown.

#### A Terrible Weapon

There erupted a great battle on the coast of Dragon Island with Phoenix fighting both Scotlorian and Tanishatown's forces. It was clear soon, that despite their constant barrage of Tanishatown, that Phoenix was going to lose the battle, so Ekrijfiat, desperate, called upon the illegal S.W.O.R.D. superweapon, the Super Laser, which set sail from Phoenix that day. On the Laser's way to Tanishatown, under orders from Ekrijfiat, the laser fired upon Eredwak, decimating it and collapsing its structures. Jason publicly demoted Ekrijfiat and most knights defaulted from his force, returning to Phoenix, but some of them stayed.

#### Evacuations

Eredwak town turned to dust, the citizens made their way to Gautamtown, which had been under siege by the Wolven Dreadfort Wolves since October; while they did not pose 'that' much of a threat, they had captured a Gautamtown little and injured several knights, which put the hurt Eredwakians and the remaining evacuated Gautamtowners in fright, afraid to return. However, Allantiona Riveno, the chief of Eredwak, was able to maneuver the frightened citizens into Gautamtown.

#### Victory but a Sequel

When Ekrijfiat was killed by Sir Rise of Phoenix, the Tanishatowners celebrated but the remaining followers of Ekrijfiat defaulted and allied with the Dragon Order, which by now had the necessary force to attack and destroy a town. With the additional support of the defected Phoenixian knights, the Order prepared for War. Unfortunately, at this time, the Tanishatowners were already preparing for the Second Tropiscare War, which was evidently on the horizon, while less serious.

#### The Dragon Order Attacks

The remaining knights, after allying with the armies of the Dragon Order, retrieved the plans for the Super Laser once more and decided to use it against Tanishatown. The koas and orderers fought on the banks of the Mordal River through days of tired hand to hand combat. Dragons peppered the worn out shields of the Dragon Order ships but nothing did any good, and soon the laser was complete. In a test run, the laser blew a hole in the middle of the village but didn't do further damage luckily.

#### The Wolves Prepare for War

Angry, the Wolves prepared for a final destruction of Gautamtown. As the Eredwakians, Dragon Tribers, and remaining Gautamtowners circled the bay in a ship to try to enter the island, the wolves formed a blockade to stop it. Gautamtown was cut off from all outside access to resources :( the wolves then began to attempt getting inside the castle, but it was too well-defended despite its small population. Three wolves were shot and the Captain held off further attacks. Meanwhile the Gautamtown Knights that were in the castle did a stealth mission, rescuing the Little that the wolves had taken hostage. The Wolves, angry, broke the power lines and disrupted the electric connection to Gautamtown.

#### The Storm

To make everything even worse, Cyclone Cadence returned, but in winter mode and ready to wreck. It poured rain upon the already tired koas, and lightning and 10mph winds swirled everywhere. In Eredwak, the remains of the town was blown into the sky, castle walls tumbling into the sea. The ship tried desperately to stay within the sheltered bay, and people were cramped below deck, nearly on verge of hypothermia as the water seeped into the tired ship.

#### Lockdown in Phoenix

Because of the storm and the still rampaging virus, Phoenix ordered a second lockdown and the gates shut closed, blockading ships from entering and closing off the 21st Trade Route. Surprised, Scotlorian wondered why they had done it, and they must have thought it was for a war purpose and were trying to keep Scotlorian out due to their attacking the Phoenixian fleet. Chief Kane felt they had to go tell them the truth. Scouts reported Phoenixian archers at the gates. Kane himself went with an escort, but they were shot at. Surprised, Kane and the escorts turned tail. They returned to Scotlorian with arrows in them. When they explained what happened the armies prepared for war once again...

#### Riddled with War

The full extent of the Pointless War, as it is called, was incredible. The allying and states involved kept changing, but the total list remains at

* Knights of Phoenix/The Phoenixian Navy
* Defected Knights of Phoenix
* Dragon Order
* Tanishatown Koas
* Knights of Gautamtown
* Wolven Dreadfort Wolves
* SWORD (Indirectly)
* Knights of Scotlorian/Scotlorian Navy
* Knights of Eredwak/Scotlorian Navy
* INDRA/The Dragonknights
* The Enderlegion (Indirectly)

The conflict had many sides, and tecnically consists of THREE separate conflicts excluding the resolved conflicts:

1. Tanishatown-Phoenix Wars (Civil Battle [Scotlorian + Eredwak + Tanishatown vs. Phoenix], resolved)
2. Phoenixian Civil Conflict (Sir Rise vs. General Ekrijfiat, resolved)

But including the unresolved conflicts:

1. Tanishatown-Dragon Order War (Dragon War)
2. Wolven Siege of Gautamtown (Dreadfort Wolves surround the village)
3. Scotlorian-Phoenix Civil War (After Kane is shot)

#### The War Continues

The war was devastating on all fronts and soon Scotlorian was days from capture, and the main front had moved to the Strait of Coreedore. Here, the Phoenixians and Scotlorians fought each other with the Tanishatown Dragonlegion chipping in filing under trespassing client. However, once the General Intinkopan of Phoenix made a plan to detonate .2 ounces of AX-921 Mountainade Nitrogen Explosive, Lieutenant Tree decided to move the explosive before it hit Tanishatown, killing him in the process and exploding near Seashocker Bay. The explosion was giant, and caused instability all over the area.

#### The Volcano Erupts

After the Mountainade detonation, the volcano became triggered to erupt. Within a few days, the ash and lava was flying and Mistui was ordered to go underground.
