First Hell War

The Hell War was a major war between a group of players, sometimes known as the Hell Defenders, and a large coalition of allied nations formed to fight them. The Hell Defenders compromised of citizens of C.I.S. and Carbon, though their governments did not endorse their actions. The war originally broke out when some of the Hell Defenders attacked Varathia's vault on ___. During the attack, the mayor of Mount Augusta was pearled after being thrown into a trench. The attack on the Varathia Vault was repelled by a group of nations including Chungus, Cantina, Blackwater, Varathia, Otonabee and members of Mount Augusta. The group retreated with the pearls to Vanax's vault, Hell. An attack on Hell Vault was commenced by the Allies on June 18 and would result in the breaking of Hell Vault on June 22. Throughout the attack multiple nations joined the Allies, making it the largest coalition of nations in the history of the server.

Prelude
There's probably more things that happened as a prelude to this so feel free to add shit here

Chungus Lives Matter
As the attack on Varathia happened, many Chungesians arrived at the scene to protest for their lives. The people of chungus were unsure of what to do and so called out for Chungus Lives matter. Soon after, the clicking moved over to Chungus City and citizens slowly began to gear up for defending Varathia.

Battle of Varathia's Vault
The battle begun on the 18th of June after Varathia had discovered their vault being attacked by a mixed group of alts and known players via snitches and first hand accounts, at the time of discovery it was unknown how they were able to breach the vault and get to the center. By the time the majority of Varathian forces were able to log on it had already been under siege for around 10 to 15 minutes and thus it wasn't feasible to put up much of a defense of the vault itself and the battle soon became an attempt to retake the vault. By this time the vault was effectively discovered to be broken via sky-bridge and under the attackers control via city bastions, while minor skirmishing was happening outside the vault and in the general area, including Chungus, Chesham and Olendor proper. Numerous Civilian causalities took place, being around 6 players in number, and also the pearling of fighters within and around the vault in trenches, most notably Ibis1804.

Initial attack
The war soon transitioned from an attack on the now enemy held Varathian vault and accompying sky-bunkers and ground bunkers to a rescue effort to retrieve pearls from Hell Vault as the pearls had been transferred to Hell before the ground bunker south of Varathia had been breached by Cantina and Blackwater.

Cantina and Blackwater forces began construction on the attack bunker during the night before the battle, but due to accidents, the location of the first attack bunker and attack tunnels were leaked by the potion status macro during the night. This resulted in the structure being immediately attacked by the Hell Defenders and disabled. The construction of a new attack bunker was then started directly east of the Hell vault. It would be this bunker that would serve as attack bunker during the entire duration of the conflict.

Battle of the desert
The early coalition, made up of Cantina-Blackwater-Varathia, began the assault on Hell vault in the eastern desert. Hell defenders attempted to hold back the assault with bows and the occasional sword skirmishes. As coalition forces broke bastions, an obsidian path was made from the forward bunker up to the vault trench. The obsidian path was created to shield the attackers from rumored sand traps created in the weeks prior.

Breach of the Hell trench
As Coalition forces pushed through the desert and created an attacking tunnel on bedrock, they finally arrived at the vault trench. After countless hours of battling for inches, the Coalition fighters felt they were ready to make a push outside of the tunnel and into the trench. With nearly triple the numbers currently logged on and the bastion on the verge of being broken, they planned to overwhelm the vault defenders in order to gain control. The surface team, lead by Commanders Seared and Phacad, was waiting for the ground (bedrock) team to give them the signal to jump. The ground team, lead by Evocat0r, needed to break a couple more pieces of stone reinforced obsidian before giving the signal. Suddenly, ground forces notice a friendly on the other side of the wall - it was Commander Seared. He fell into the trench minutes before the ground team was ready. Commander Evocat0r immediately gave the signal for the surface forces to jump in to buy him time. After only seconds of hesitation, they proceeded to jump into the trench from above. Evocat0r instructed ground forced to immediately break 2 pieces of obsidian and then to immediately flood the trench in an all-out attempt to save Seared. Forces flooded the trench, but due to the initial hesitation, Seared was already too low on health pots. Cantina lost the second of their three leaders.

Skybridge
After days of fighting in ground tunnels, and hardly any progress being made past the trench, Cantina released their secret weapon, Sharpcastle33. Sharp and Posey spent a lot of time theory crafting vault attacks prior to attacking Hell. Sharp was able to figure out a new and extremely effective way to sky bridge. With the addition of nations being added to the Coalition, they were able to attack from the ground, middle, and multiple tunnels in the sky - overwhelming the Hell defenders.
