The Za'lyr'zna Archive Fires (Traditional Kæzhyn: Иёи-жϟ Тё-ϟιч-яё Эж-фё-юж, Reformed Kæzhyn: Pap'ul Za'lyr'zna Tu'ka'tsu) were a series of arson attacks and book burnings occurring in the North and Midlands of Syrtænzna, primarily in the region of Za'lyr'zna and the Capital allegedly caused by a group of Læsic Cultists, with the Syrtæn'at Government passing the blame on agitators from the Cult of Læs, in a broad manner which did not actually denote any specific religious group, as many small groups within both Syrtænzna and Kæra'zna fit such a label, with heavy-handed and unpopular attempts to crack down on such groups by the Syrtæn'at Police soon proving to be fruitless, though many Cultists were placed in police custody, not many had enough evidence to properly convict them and were let go following protests claiming religious persecution by the Government.

In the time it took for the firefighters to arrive, the lower floors of the building were engulfed in flames, and a pile of burnt books were left in front of it, which many believed to have been either a calling card or a call to action, as it included a note that reads
