Decennial of 2780

Overview

The Decennial of 2780 is cited as a decennial instance of Apert remembered for unrest around Muncoster. In one account, tension came to a head on Tenth Night, when the Tenners’ math was described as having been “sacked a little.” Calm returned after the opening concluded.

Preceding Context

• The period is described as one in which Deolaters were gaining political influence; earlier in the same era there had already been trouble at a couple of annual openings.
• Unrest had appeared intermittently during recent Annual Aperts, setting the stage for larger disturbances during this decennial.

What Happens

• On Tenth Night of the opening, a group outside the walls caused damage and disorder focused on the Tenners’ precinct at or near Muncoster. The incident is characterized in the source as a limited “sacking,” implying brief but notable breach and vandalism rather than a full-scale assault.

Aftermath/Consequences

• The disturbance ebbed as Apert ended; once the gates closed, “things seemed to calm down” and routine returned.

Notes

• Details are preserved as remembered accounts rather than formal records, and phrasing such as “sacked a little” suggests some uncertainty in scope and attribution.
• Associations in discussion include the presence of Deolater factions and rising sectarian fervor, but specific organizers or leaders are not identified.
