Cease Fire On Holplo XVI

At 07/26/2013 at 23:14 the skirmish between the forces of Valen and the forces of Ghosage have ended as quickly as they began. The short conflict, which started on 07/26/2013 at 22:53, claimed 163 lives on both sides of the engagement.

The skirmish came as a surprise to the citizens of Holplo XVI as the first shells hit their targets. Experts expected this conflict to draw on longer than it did. Skeptics warn that this decline should not be considered permanent and that more hostilities are probable as long as relations between the two factions remain strained.
