Story
While the Archives lack any specific details of this battle. What is known is the Horde of the Summoned was led by Malvada, who supposedly was appointed to the post by none other than Libila herself. The objective was simple: Take the infamous Orb of Doom to the Altar of Three and destroy it. Rendering the forces of Jenn-Kellon effectively useless without their beloved White Light.
Now the records do not say as to how or why the plan was discovered. But a defense force was quickly rallied up and camped a mere half-kilometer from the White Light. When the Horde discovered that the element of surprise was gone, they attacked with a fury not seen for many a starfall. The battle could be easily compared with the Battle of Armageddon that so many beliefs refer to in their texts.
But for some reason unknown now, the Jenn-Kellon army was able to beat back the rampaging Hordes and claimed victory. However, it isn't known of what became of the Orb of Doom. Either it stills lies somewhere buried under the blood of many a fighter. Or worse, could've been spirited away to await perhaps the fabled Armageddon War that may be yet to come....
Review
This battle is one of those types which strangely parallels real-life, and whose focus changes many times in the midst of the fight.
The initial plan by the BLers was to take out the White Light by using a Superweapon. While this is risky, success would mean total domination over the WLers and possibly even the whole world.
Its hard to figure out how the WLers learned of the attack, but once they did they lept into action. First they planted a Homstead about 500m from the White Light (a rule of Wurm is no deeds shall be planted on the Lights themselves), this did two things: One it shifted the focus of the battle to the deed, and it forced the BLers into having to attack the deed because it acted like a castle. It could not be ignored.
Once the deed was there. It spawned guards which gave the WLers much needed defenders and freed up fighters to repeal the attackers. After a while the BLers gave up and left, which gave the victory to the defenders.
