Facts are interesting little things. You can collect them, possess ordered records of every Report since day 105, but you'll never have them all. Everything is open to interpretation:


After being spared, Clan ForkLift relocated his hall. Few fighters and breeders remained, they formed a little guerilla force and headed southwest. There they met the armies of GrAMPa, and attacked. Dancing over hills, winning some losing some, it was an enjoyable little battle. But being outnumbered it wasn't long before ForkLift found himself in a familiar role, on the back foot, defending. One day a small group of Clan Peevish fighters appeared from the direction of GrAMPa territory. This group became bigger and continued to advance towards ForkLift's guerrillas. ForkLift knew little about Clan Peevish and laid down a bit of carpet-bombing to greet the uninvited guest. Peevish troops advanced over the carpet-bombing and were greatly injured. The next day ForkLift opened fire directly at the troops and at other Peevish units elsewhere on the sphere.

Peevish was not amused, and demanded apologies, compensation and a complete withdrawal of all ForkLift forces from the area known as Shady Tomb. ForkLift chose war, and his good friend Celestial Ebony joined him in his doomed defence of the unimportant guerilla base. Not too long after, Peevish was a confirmed member of GrAMPaPa.

Two quite different conclusions:
1:Peevish was always a member of GrAMPaPa, and so ForkLift was justified in opening fire.
2:ForkLift made a false assumption in associating Peevish with GrAMPa, and it was his actions that forged cooperation and unity of Peevish and GrAMPa.


Much much later, Peevish jumped a couple of fighters to a gate north of a couple of ForkLift fighters. War between these two clans was now ancient history. Peevish asked ForkLift for permission to use the gate. ForkLift said it was OK with him. More Peevish troops jumped in to use the gate. The next day ForkLift's good friend Kannon Maul opened fire.

Peevish was not amused, and demanded apologies, compensation and Kannon Maul's ejection from his alliance. ForkLift chose war and helped his friends to make the area north of their territory a Peevish-free zone.

Two quite different conclusions:
1:Peevish was set-up.
2:Peevish merely made a false assumption of viewing ForkLift's permission as the same as ForkLift's Alliance's permission.
