Faghira-Jalil Revolt (concept)
The Faghira-Jalil revolt was a massive conflict that engulfed most of eastern Sarradon in the 1220s. A result of decades of built-up native resentment against their Agionist overlords, the spark that would set the entire region aflame would come in 1222 in the provincial town of Tell-Jahara, when a group of Katharite knights beat a young child to death for a perceived slight in broad daylight. The act proved to be a breaking point for the locals, who proceeded to retaliate by burning down their local chapter of the order. A series of escalations by both sides then ensued, culminating in a massive wave of rebellion spreading across the land.
The war has received its name from the two primary leaders of the Sarradonian forces - the Ritualist priest Faghira in the west, and the Wardenite preacher Jalil in the east. Lasting for around 6 years, it would see a seemingly never-ending series of brutalities committed by the Saintly Orders in an attempt to reassert their iron grip, most infamously culminating in the Kahdavrakan Supper of 1227. The rebellion would largely end in an unsatisfactory stalemate for both sides in 1228 - the Agionists narrowly managing to crush their opposition in the western theatre of the war, but losing de-facto control of Kekhenemhat in the east to the rebels. However, aftershocks would continue to affect the region for the rest of the decade, with most of the countryside having slid into anarchy in the past 6 years of bloodletting.
