The Sigil Conflict was a brief religious / political dispute that occurred at Sigil between January 15th and January 17th, 2020. The Sigil Conflict consisted of an armed religious uprising, a revolution, enforced political suppression and a subsequent battle and terror campaign. While war was never officially declared, and the conflict ended through legal, mutually-respected means, the Sigil Conflict was nonetheless a heated event that would prove to have a lasting impact on the server climate of early 2020.
