Article Theme/Topic: Attack on Firevale
General Information Body Paragraph:
The Attack on Firevale was carried out by Bethune on Gansevor, upon which Jedi Masters Barash Silvain and Porter Engle were sent to Gansevor to put an end to the siege peacefully.
History/Background Body Paragraph:
The city-state Firevale possessed the deposits of Baudraxite, a rare material crucial to the infrastructure on their planet. Many other states beared resentment towards them as they were not generous enough to share this valuable resource, one of these many states was the state of Bethune. After the Bethunian heir, married the firevalian heir, they both fled to Firevale fearing that the people of Bethune would not accept their marriage, much less of them having children. Their untimely fleeing caused a misconception on the people of Bethune that their princess had been captured.
Colden, the Firevalian heir, feared that his mother, disproving of her son’s actions, would not let him rule the city. Which caused them to seek help from Tozen and the Bethune army to lay siege to the city-state of Firevale.
The siege had gone on for several months, completely blocking all communications without providing a reason as to why. This prompted the Firevalian envoy Seleen, to send a request of aid from the Jedi Order.
The Jedi Masters Barash Silvain and Porter Engle subsequently arrived at the capital, Horatio, where Seleen explained the Firevalian side of the story to the Jedi Masters. As both of them were looking for a peaceful solution, they set out for Firevale with an aid shipment convoy for the refugees in Firevale. On route, the convoy was attacked by the armies of Bethune, denying them passage, forcing the Jedi Masters to face the army on foot.
The Jedi Masters after lots of persuasion, were able to convince the Commander of the Bethunian Army, Tozen, to grant the convoy passage into the city. After the Jedi had left for the city, Tozen ordered Viess' warrior-kin mercenary army to aide them as a show of force.
The Siege came to an end when General Abediah Viess assasinated Tozen and several of his men, forcing the Jedi, Sicatra, and Bethune’s armies to band together in order to defeat the mercenaries.
Additional Information Body Paragraph:
After the Siege, Barash Silvain had a feeling that she had made a dire mistake, believing a story she was told, which ended up clouding her vision, which ended up in lives being unnecessarily lost. Following this, she took on the Barash Vow, acting solely on the Will of the Force.
