=== Iria Will Burn: The BMB War (mid-late 2014) ===

In mid-2014, Iria had a modestly large population, and a strong local economy. Then, a raiding gang who called themselves "The BMB" entered the picture. While poorly armed, they had large numbers. Their tactic of lighting everything in sight on fire was also devastating for Iria, which extensively used flammable wood materials in house construction. The recently completed Providence district of Iria mostly burned to the ground. Many Irians fled, with prominent Irian citizens Tamblers, Fraelyn and Michael leaving to start a new town under Iria that would become known as Sunder. Those who remained were determined, and one Irian, CD, famously put a sign outside house house that read “BMB proof”. The BMB continued to strike Iria, and left signs of their own, placing many signs threatening Iria with messages such as “Iria will burn.” Eventually the BMB were defeated and their base, Stormgarde, was destroyed. The Irians who remained came together to rebuild form the ashes. Many moons later, travelers would still report finding the odd “Iria will burn” sign in the forests and mountains around Iria.
