Lyrevale Civil War: Difference between revisions

 

In the early hours of the 17th of October 1985, several lupine families, numbering 16 in total, attempted to cross the border east of Fenrir by cutting through the dual-layered border fence with wire cutters. 7 made it through before a patrol spotted the hole in the fence and opened fire on those who remained, killing 8 and injuring one who managed to escape whilst wounded during the firefight. The incident enraged the government of the South, with President Morgan Filtarn delivering an ultimatum to Prime Minister Beatrice Gunner mandating that they both legally recognise and actively improve the welfare of Lupines or face a declaration of war. At the time, the south had become militarily more powerful than the stagnant North and was in a far better position strategically. It was thus believed that such an invasion would be swift, or even result in a rapid Northern surrender. Not willing to concede, the North garnered support from other powers who sought to oppose Norograd through Lyrevale. This quickly caught the attention of the Ethalrian Matriarch [[Delores Sofura]], who secretly pledged to support the North in the event the South invaded.
