# **GIGNEY**

## History

### Date Founded

March 25th-April 3rd 2021

Founded in March of 2021, it was created to serve as the base of operations for the Knights of Aetheria. It is now a relatively large city with around 40 inhabitants. It's mayor is Tom Tukker and John William Tukker.

## Battle of Gigney

### Result

Decisive Lunaist Victory

Tomhins wandered through the desert before finding a small savannah area between a plain and the desert, with a river in the middle, and called it Gigney (he had gotten inspiration from the irl french city of giggly). He built a small hut and a Lunaist sacrifice pit. He soon created two apartment buildings and began the construction of a fort near the river and built a farm. He invited his brother (now co mayor) John8355 and ItzAstralzlways (now Astralium1) into the city. Soon after, as the Knights of Aetheria seeked a base of operations, Gigney was chosen. All three built the fort, and Tomhins invited a fourth; Averycoolman. Averycoolman was chosen caretaker of the fort and was a Knight. He then invited one of his friends, grey\_tubby and then Ninelostlives. This rapid growth of both the Knights and the city created the Kingdom of Aetheria within the Qeshbago Dynasty.

### **AFTER THE KNIGHTS**

Once the Knights collapsed, Gigney soon moved on. Astralium constructed a potion brewery and Tomhins finished the wall and created a few shops. He invited FatCop9 and another of his friends, Gundybal, to the city and it began to stagnate. Tom and John began improving the city with small tweaks, and began recruiting again. For a few months, more houses were built, more people joined and it was entirely rebuilt in about August 2021.

### **BATTLE OF GIGNEY**

Gigney had disturbed the Gods and the Gods decided to punish Gigney. 5 Beasts of the Illagers had raided the city accompanied by 4 evokers and 25 Pillagers and 10 Vindicators against 3 players: Tomhins, ItzAstralzAlways and John8355. The Illagers pierced into the main city whilst the Beasts remained outside. John and Tom focused on the Beasts whilst Astralium went in for full glory. He had slain multiple evokers and moved onto the Pillagers, which he easily decimated. But a group of Vindicators killed him. Meanwhile, John and Tomhins focused on killing the Beasts one by one instead of facing them with their full might. John and Tom would die two times to the Beasts each but would manage to kill them all by themselves. Meanwhile, Astralium had finished off the Pillagers and killed the Vindicators one by one by using a house's roof to his advantage. The vex pushed him off and led to the Vindicators killing him a second time, being the last casualty of the battle. They eventually finished off all the raiders.

### **RORIS DISPUTE**

Initially, Roris was a squatter town within the Chevkri Republic and the province of Gigney. Though the provincial leader, Tomhins, allowed them to join his province. However the citizens of Roris, of which at the time were around 10 to 15 of, disliked being within this province, due to seeing the provincial leader as incompetent and unable to run the province, and continued to act as if they were under no province and even sought assistance from the national government to either leave the province, or found their own.

   This caused conflict with the province who's land they were occupying, which is understandable as Roris was practically trying to steal their land away from them. There was a peace confrence held between the town and provincial leadership which ultimatly led to nothing as just days later multiple citizens of Roris attempted to incite a war between Roris and Gigney, this attempted war never occured however as these warmongering citizens left hours after attempting to cause war. Roris was eventually anihilated and incorporated into Gigney.

### **AFTER RORIS DISPUTE**

After Gigney was replaced as provincial capital, there was the Umbrian Revolt, which resulted in the recreation of Umbria and the destruction of Areus. Gigney once again fell into stagnation, with a few Lunaist prayers here and there.

### **UMBRIAN CIVIL WARS**

After the collapse of Chevkri, a Communist government formed in the SRC, which resulted in the rebellion of the anti Communist Lunaist areas of Umbria and the start of the 1st Umbrian Civil War on April 10th. Gigney saw no fighting in this war. Eventually, Coolio City fell on 15th and the First Umbrian Civil War ended. But, on June 28th, the 2nd Umbrian Civil War started and the whole country except the Communist capital joined Qeshbago. On July 3rd, Horde forces entered Urusia and the SRC government was toppled and Umbria was integrated into Qeshbago.

## INDEPENDENCE

On the 28th of July, Qeshbago dissolved, and the First Umbrian Republic was declared. Crowds in Gigney, New Coolio City and Neu Athinikas celebrated as this was the first time Aetheria was independent since the Aetherian Empire.

On about August 3rd, the Presidential race commenced. 3 Candidates presented themselves: Tomhins, Astralium and John they began creating large amounts of propaganda and established a date for the presidential debate. In the meantime, the Morteau Republic and Umbria formed Die Athinikasi Republik. On the 14th of August, the debate occured and it was seeming likely that Astralium would win. Soon after, a new candidate joined the race: Timeken. Astralium gave him support and that was that when 4 days later, the 1st round of the elections occured. Astralium won the first round and on the 20th, won the second round and was elected.

### **PARAGON**

On the 21st, Elys, Nebula, Paragon, OPTC, Viesten and Kush were in a coalition against Umbria and the incoming battle was in Gigney. Aetheria tried calling in Hearthstone Yuldai and Dande but it was in vain. On the 27th, Aetheria surrendered and Paragonite Chevkri was formed. After this, Gigney fell into stagnation once again, even into decline. Roris was granted cityhood once again.

### **GIGNITE REVIVAL**

On the 9th of November, the Gignite revival began. Days earlier, Chevkri had reformed as Dara-Lumonde, but now, it was Gigney's turn to reform. Gigney proceeded to gain 15 new players in 9 days and turned into the largest city in Paragonite Chevkri. It began construction of a new library, began the policy of a Lunaist prayer every day, opened two new bars, created a new tree farm and overall came back to relevance. But on the 7th day... Something terrible happened... The Sacred Axe of Luna, "Luna's Wrath", broke after a skeleton knight was slain.

Once the library was finished, Athanastios, the architect of the Library, began looking for books and flags. He began installing Chevkri, Gigney, Umbrian, Aetherian and Uldarashi flags on the outside and inside of the library. Meanwhile, he began mass buying books from collectors with funds from the city government. He created a religious sector including much of Lunaist books.

### **GIGNITE RAGNAROK**

At 7:25PM, the defenders sat on the walls. A massive wave of attackers began approaching the wall, and they began firing. Though, ghasts and vex began raiding their positions, giving the attackers enough time to enter the city. Though, the melee defenders managed to mow them down, but almost as they were finished, an even bigger wave arrived. They were overwhelmed and forced to cede land. A smaller wave arrives from behind, blowing up a piece of the wall. They are forced to fight on two sides. Astralium Zratki and Tom Tukker order a half-circle formation be formed around his home, but Xoda Eydur and his Kuiyataran volunteers attempt to defend the farm. Another wave breaches the second gate and Xoda Eydur is forced to follow orders. Meanwhile, the Coalitioners launch a spearhead towards the temple and would send a distraction against the Library. The defenders cede over Tom's home to defend the Temple and Library. Ok Epitchian, Fizzy and his grandson, Frederik, move to defend the Library whilst the Kuiyatarans move to the front next to the main gate.

## 2nd Battle of Gigney

### Result

Lunaist victory

Astralium redirects the main Aetherian battalion to the Library and push them out. He then moves his forces back to the Temple. A much, much, much larger wave assembles near the Temples and launches a massive push, and the defenders are forced to move back. Astralium's contingent is moved towards his home and the bar whilst another spearhead moves towards the temple. They manage to almost breach the inside but the Coalitioners near Astralium's home are repelled and he manages to move back to the Temple and repels them. By now, the battered attackers are now working on one last attack. Meanwhile, they are pushed back to near the gate. Around 300 Coalitioner forces move towards the Temple. They easily push through our defenses and enter the Temple. The defenders inside fight fiercly, and the Coalitioners manage to damage a bit of the Temple. Astralium Zratki is forced into the sacrifice pit and mows down the Coalitioners in front of him whilst the Kuiyataran volunteers surround the invaders in the Temple, eventually finishing them off. The Coalitioners are eventually finally finished off with a few fleeing. The fighters cherish victory, but... Something doesn't feel right. 3 withers attempted to crush the defenders but the defenders easily finish them off. And so, true victory was achieved. They held a prayer and... Luna herself gave the "Crown of Gigney" and reforged the Sacred Axe.
