The War of The Fellowships was a war between two clans, the Fellowship of the Kittens and The Fellowship. The war began on March 14th, 2019, when the player and leader of The Fellowship, TheOnlySlash, attempted to assassinate three members of the Fellowship of the Kittens with a crystal bomb. TheOnlySlash issued a kill-on-sight order immediately after the failed attack directed towards the FOK. The FOK subsequently declared war on the Fellowship, beginning The War of the Fellowships.
The war was largely defined throughout its official period as a cold war, most of the war was fought through opposing ideas and propaganda, with each team acquiring different allies and affiliates to aid them should an attack take place. By mid-May 2019, the war had officially "ended" by default due to the Fellowship of the Kittens formally disbanding their team, with many of their players either moving on to new projects or leaving the server outright. The post-war period was defined with skirmishes and banter, containing more fighting than the actual duration of the war.
Eighteen days after the end of the war, AtacFauxpas -a member of the FOK- discovered the Fellowship's main base, Semper Idem. He severely griefed and raided the base, causing its members to flee.
Almost a month later, the Fellowship officially responded by griefing Fort Thunder. Fort Thunder was a spawn base that also doubled as a recruitment center for the FOK, located only around 6,000 blocks from spawn.
Kittenspear and Syracusai were later destroyed by Korijenkins and TheOnlySlash, and in a shocking display of betrayal, Korijenkins revealed the coordinates of every Fellowship base, looting all valuables from each one before departing to Further North Koria. The end of the war left both the Fellowship of the Kittens and The Fellowship in ruins, the only player who actually gained anything being Korijenkins.
