Wiksik PKers/War Against The Necromancers
Historical Analysis
In November 2007 The Necromancers Guild claimed the Wiksik healers' hut for their base of operations and renamed it the spirit hut. It functioned well, and peacefully for sometime, allowing healers and Shaman a place to use their skills. After some players caused grieving to this system The Necromancers declared the use of Exorcism within this hut to be a crime. They instituted a policy of killing those natives who practiced exorcism on local spirits(spirit equivalent to Pking)This policy caused some distress amongst the natives of Wiksik, who disagreed with this rash decision.
On the evening of 08th January 2008 a warrior native (Black Fang) was killed in the healers' hut by a Necromancer (the X-PKer ziggyirked) for the alleged "crime" of headhunting a peaceful outsider who meant no harm. Although this was the members personal view, and not endorsed by the guild they were blamed anyway. this incident was the spark that ignited Shartak's first full-blown native vs native conflict. On one side was the Necromancers. On the other were natives killed as a consequence of Necromancer policies, those who felt that natives should be free from such rules and a some blood thirsty ring-ins looking for any excuse to spill blood. The result was a bitter civil war in Wiksik with otherwise peaceful natives taking the opportunity to settle scores in the traditional manner. For 11 days brother native killed brother native, bodies piled high and the huts of Wiksik were stained red with blood. Many attempts were made at peace but Black Fang refused all negotiations, even after the Necromancers apologized and changed their exorcist policy, they refused to end the fight, targeting all necromancers even new, low level ones who had caused no one harm.
On the evening of 20th January 2008 a fragile peace was established. The Necromancers having already rectified their policies and apologized to those they had killed, claimed an empty hut at the S extremity of Wiksik as their own. The Wiksik natives reclaimed the healers' hut. All Wiksiks were once again free to live as they pleased.
