The attacking Jenn-Kellon force consisted of players from many towns from both the Wild and Home server. They gathered at the White Light. It took a long period of time to gather their forces, so Syphilis and their allies at Dark Citadel had plenty of time to prepare. The leaders of the raid, Sye and Maul, lead them to Syphilis, but were slowed down by problems on the way.
Once the army reached the town, they built a catapult to lay siege to the town's only entrance. After realizing the catapult was not doing much damage, the army attacked the gatehouse directly. The Blacklighters started suicidal hit and run attacks, forcing some of the attack force to heal. The first wall of the gatehouse soon fell and the attackers proceeded to the second wall. About this time, Xplict and Serph decided to unlock the gatehouse. When the doors opened, both the Whitelight leaders charged inside the town and the door was relocked. Both Sye and Maul were quickly killed while the rest of the army was still at the gate.
After the second wall was broken through, the rest of the army entered the outer edge of Syphilis. With some help from some guards, the Blacklighters were able to push the rest of the attackers out of the town. While some Whitelighters stayed to fight, others started to run. Some that escaped the counter-attack, died from wild beasts before they got home.
