History
7arkington was founded by 7ark on 10/15/2025. After 7ark originally made a home within 1000 blocks of spawn, several experienced players suggested he move far away. After being gifted an elytra, he took flight until he found the site that would become the city. He began building a castle, with the town growing next to it.
The Siege of 7arkington
On 11/2/2025 7arkington was standing tall. At this point the city had around 20 residents, many services, and players around the city often.
Early in the day, a player going by Phantom_Player11 informed 7ark about a new build in the sky, a hot air balloon. Upon investigating it, he discovered it was filled with 61 blocks of TNT. They began removing it and informing members of Trifarix about the discovery. As they had removed it, another played Wild_Havoc logged in, and their login spot was on the air balloon. 7ark questioned them, asking what they knew. They had claimed an invisible player had paid them to build it. As they discussed, elements of their story didn't entirely line up, and they seemed to be manufacturing evidence to try and point him towards Luquitas_Alpha, a known newbie killer and griefer. Elements of their story didn't add up, and the Trifarixian guard force was deciding what to do.
About 30 minutes after these events, a goon that was part of Luquitas_Alpha's gang arrived in 7arkington, JeffreyYuTu5. They proceeded to attack and burn down various parts of the city. Over the next hour, both Luquitas and Jeffery would appear, blow up or burn down buildings, attempt to kill people, and stasis away before anyone could effectively attack them. Many PVPers came to the defense of the city, but the attackers fled each time, focusing on destruction.
At the end of it, the city was in ruins, many buildings destroyed or burned. In this, suspicion rose against Wild_Havoc, already a suspect before, now people thought they might have leaked the coordinates in order to corroborate their story, or potentially having worked with them the entire time. The nation decided to eliminate them during the chaos.
Luckily, no other citizens died, and they fled to form New Arkington until Luquitas and Jeffrey were brought to justice.
