The Great Egg War

The Great Egg War, was fought between all factions on the server, between The Server Forces inlcuding The Empire, Rowan Springs, Sea Supreme and Whatever Greg Is, and The Protectionists, The Groomers, the newly formed Aquilan Empire and The Octonauts.

## The Stealing of The Egg

On the 16th January, united server forces, killed The Ender Dragon, taking its egg as a trophy, it was placed by Ralph in the Communal Court Room for all to see and enjoy. However it was discovered that it was missing.

Ralph on a search for a disturbance of lag, found the egg in the basement of The Groomers' base. In response he built Mons Predonum to watch over it. This heightened tensions, The Groomers hid the egg but luckily a peace treaty was agreed. However there was still resentment from a lot of the higher ups on the server, most of all Jonah of The Empire.

## Prophecies

The Prophecies of Euan Oracle of Aquila detailed the events of the war. This was the main one, named The Prophecy of War:

*Faith in men destroyed, walls chambered high*

*Reckoning is upon, alliance in the veil*

*Your teachings falter*

*The sphere of life shifts in the balance*

*As the draught grows stronger*

*And the bonds solidify like stone*

*The forges below are lit*

*Unto the anvil of war, the fire burns*

## Declaration of Empire

On 26th March 2021 Ralph made this speech to the newly formed Server Senate, reforming The Republic of Aquila into the Aquilan Empire:

*I have studied the auguries, I have watched the stars and, there is much strife afoot. I visited the cave in the mountains where a strange oracle told me this:*

`(states Prophecy of War)`

*This prophecy worries me I am sure that in no less than a week, our peaceful coexistence will be uprooted in terror and war. Spears shall be shaken, Shields shall be splintered. We will be thrown headfirst into utter and complete turmoil. To that effect, in order to ensure our security and continuing stability, the Republic will be reorganized into the first Aquilan Empire! For a safe and secure society.*

*The meeting is adjourned.*

## Declaration of War

On 28th March, Jonah made this speech outside the Imperial Tower, overlooking Rowan Springs:

*There is much trouble about, and the factions of this fair world are becoming cocky! We must unite together, and forget our ambitions for independence.*

*Now! It has been long! When we first defeated the ender dragon we took its spawn as a trophy of a shared victory! But it was taken from us, taken away by the cruel and selfish mountain goblins! We must retake what is rightfully all of ours and not just not one to hog for themselves.*

*I call my allies, my brethren to war! And anyone else who understands the meaning of righteous justice. We must reclaim the egg! I formally declare war on The Groomers and anyone who stands with them.*

*I await your response, I just hope that you pick the right side.*

Rowan Springs immediately declared there support for The Empire, and The Groomers accepted the declaration of war, and The Aquilan Empire supported The Groomers.

## Alliances

Both sides needed as much support as they could muster, so Ralph and Benji went on a diplomatic mission to The Octonauts, securing their support and respectively Jonah went to Greg also securing his support.

## Skirmish at Sea Supreme

In the Skirmish at Sea Supreme on 30th March, Server Forces and Protectionists fought over what side Sea Supreme to join. In the fight Greg suffered severe injuries and Sea Supreme declared themselves neutral.

## The Siege of Groomer Heights

On 2nd April, United Server Forces including Sea Supreme, marched to Groomer Heights to get the egg back. Protectionists immediately scrambled to repel them. The siege was long and hard. Jonah got close to the egg at one point but was thrown off the topmost tower by Caleb. The Protectionists fought bravely but were overwhelmed, in despair Ralph took the egg and escaped to the nearby Mons Predonum.

## The Siege of Mons Predonum

United Server Forces regrouped at Groomer Heights, the Protectionists standing with them. They marched to the front door, when Ralph unleashed his armies. Hundreds of zombies, many clad in diamond armour came down upon the Server Forces. However they pushed through and forced Ralph to the top of the mountain, Ralph injured Amy, Owen and Harvey and kept climbing, until he was standing at the top of the tower, looking down at the ground below, a fall that would certainly kill him. Jonah came forward the rest of the Server Forces gathered around, and convinced Ralph to stand down, and together they would take the egg to its rightful place for all to see. Ralph rode on a donkey the peoples of the server marching behind and in front. Together he and Jonah chained the egg to the ceiling of the court room and using powerful magic, made immovable, never to be stolen again.

## Aftermath

In the aftermath, and an agreement was made for the nobody to ever fight again on the server and all matters from now on would be conducted in a peaceful manner. Ralph returned Aquila to its rightful state as a Republic and unveiled a new flag and vowed to be a protector of the peace and establish a new server senate building.
