The latest war between the lords led to the rise of Vladius Darius, who believes that the problem is with the aristocracy. Vladius preaches to the workers that the lords have been living the life of luxury at the expense of the commmon man. He says that if it were not for the corruption of the aristocracy, they would all have food oon their tables every night, and not the bare minimum to prevent them from starving to death.
At first, the message of Vladius was interesting, but insane. A system in which everyone shared the production of their work, and no one had an unjust advantage was crazy at the start, but that quickly changed. When a new war broke out, the soldiers threw down their swords in diffiance. They had enough with the lords exploitiing them and taking what little they had. A thousand warriors followed Vladius into battle against the corrupted aristocracy, but the Emperor would have no part of that. With a new threat to his power, Cusico began a new crusade against the revolutionaries by promising untold riches in the afterlife to anyone who remains loyal to the crown and serves in the Zandeth army in the war. With this promise, a new army was formed to crush Vladius and his thousand followers.
The first move was made by Vladius. He attacked on of the lords, taking his property, and finally killing him. The manor the lord lived in was burned to the ground as the revolutionaries shouted "Down with peace! Up with the people!", their battle cry. Cusico's army arrived afterwards, but Vladius was already gone. Now, the hunt is on for Vladius and his followers, and the greatest of challenges has rose for the people. If they do not act soon, then all is lost.
