Changes
In E7-360, Heaven announced the '''Faith-Driven Expansion Plan''', forming four settling parties between E7-360 and E7-363 and founding the towns of [[Caminus]], [[Alba Radium]], [[Divus Nitor]], and [[Beatus]], increasing the number of towns under angelic control from 3 to 7. Hell's response was the '''Demonic Super-Special Enlargement Operation''', resulting in the foundation of five new Demonic towns.
As both factions began expanding their reach and influence, the number of angelic and demonic entities in the Mazes also sharply rose. Inevitably, tensions between the two factions also increased. One of Hell's new towns, [[Abakash]], had been settled uncomfortably close to the older angelic town of [[Ventis]]. A new UA route between both towns had been established, and quickly became the new flashpoint of the angelic-demonic rivalry. Everything to The situation eventually reached a near breaking point in E7-368, when a group of Angelic creatures met a group of Demonic creatures on the Ventis-Abakash road. Both parties refused to let the other pass, the encounter devolving rapidly into a shouting match, and finally into a fight.
Over the hours that followed, each side continued to send reinforcements to the UA room where the fight was taking place, with new forces replacing the eliminated on each side. The battle is virtually constrained to one room, with a few unsuccessful attempts by both sides to gain ground towards the rival town's direction. After 13 hours of sustained conflict and 298 casualties (through a sheer display of coincidence, the casualties are evenly split; 149 angelics and 149 demonics), both sides agreed to let representatives meet with each other to discuss ending the conflict. Ventis sent a shrine maiden while Abakash sent a dark maiden; the two met, briefly discussing terms and conditions on how to end this senseless waste of personnel for both sides.
