This feeling of detachment extended to the [[Cardiniality|Cardinial religions]] brought with them, with Asatru and even [[Akuanism]] being more accepted in common society than the faiths of the New Northerners, especially when in reference to the more Fundamentalist branches of [[Cardiniality#Læsism|Læsism]] and [[Cardiniality#Pæfism|Pæfism]], with discrimination having been a trend across the country in non-Az'ra communities, forcing many [[Cardiniality|Cardinials]] to form their own separate settlements, including Ra-kup. For several decades in the 20th Century, followers of the "Kæra Faiths" suffered from lessened opportunities in employment, housing and access to clubs and social groups - often accused of being "cultists". It is believed by most Sociologists that such labelling further separated the religious groups from wider society, causing further radicalization and dissolution with the majority, with many [[Cardiniality|Cardinial]] religious groups in Za'lyr'zna self identifying as "Cults" in defiance of their rejection and discrimination.

Presumably occurring between 8pm and 9pm, on the 12th of October 2008, a group of Az'ra Elves broke into the Västrop Public Library through the back entrance, having previously disabled the alarm. According to police reports, the perpetrators seized any non-literary objects of significant value, including several Library Computers. Following this, the group left several bundles of flammable material (firelighters) across the floors and began to set the building ablaze, with a hooded individual seen by adjacent cameras leaving the front to leave the pile of burnt books, while the rest of the participants exited from the way they came in.
At 9:08pm, Uf'sy-Røp - a resident of Kek-æl - reported to the Kek-æl Fire Department of seeing smoke coming from around the District Centre, as well as an "odd smell" permeating from the area, which he later described as "like burning plastic and incense oils," joking that the smell could be sold as a "East Borean Scented Candle" to a local paper after the fact. According to an inquest done of the incident, several members of the Fire Department didn't trust the resident's account, leading to them sending an insufficient amount of resources to deal with the fire where it became evident that was the source of the smoke. The fire spread partly to neighbouring buildings, injuring 9 and killing 1 person before the fire was successfully put out at 12:32am, leaving the building gutted and substantial damage to the neighbouring structures, whose remaining occupants were evacuated.{{Borea}}
