The First Servile Rebellion
Post Body

After the Lituuran War the Ors'ruic swelled even greater in power and economic activity as the Misalir Turfe's aligned their interests with the Ors'ruic and the Lituuran mainland was subjugated, while the Toutsi fell to the lightning strike of the Kelgoi. The Ors'ruic was built off the trading empire the Turfet had developed, and that core was still the beating heart of the growing imperialistic Ors'ruic. Wealth are everything in Bagaroki society, and this would permeate everywhere. This would become especially pertinent in the slave trade, as they provided the manual labor necessary to maintain such an empire and they provided the lowest common denominator for prestige in the sponsorage system that existed in Bagaroki society.

These slaves would swell in numbers as slaves from the Lituuran War flowed into Bagaroki ports and even the less fortunate members of Bagaroki society could afford a slave or two. The number of slaves increasing at such a rate was unsustainable over such a short period of time, and the problem would continue to fester in the underbelly of the opulent Bagaroki society. As time progressed, small pockets of unrest would form, mainly in North Africa where the large farm estates existed and the core of the Ors'ruic existed.

Eventually, a significant slave rebellion would appear outside the city of Air'kuon [Sfax] as a man by the name of Raxar was in charge of one of these small pockets and killed his masters, before going to nearby farm estates and doing the same, freeing slaves from those estates and sending messengers to other major areas of the news of the rebellion against their masters. This would spread like wildfire as the rich estate owners cracked down on their slaves, leading to a further stronger response from the slaves. Within weeks, there were major groups of slaves roaming the areas killing any who were in their way.

Eventually the Triumvirate were able to raise a quick army of Bagaroki and Dzeri to put down the revolts. They slaughtered many and a large portion of the rich, including the Sin'Aikasi, grew increasingly concerned over the stability of the country. A large swathe of the existing administration, such as the ilti'okans [governors] of the core regions were removed and replaced as they were blamed for the mistreatment and mishandling of the slave population and the Aristocratic Party used this as proof of the importance of the Triumvirate. Their quick action may have been the only thing to save possibly an entire city to be overrun by the slave army.
