As war spread through the territory, the population was swollen by the arrival of refugees, especially from &lt;del style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;wealth &lt;/del&gt;[[Mareave#Clisearn|Clisearn]]. In a surprise move, Ehsan declared independence from the [[Grendel]] and sued for peace with the Empire. He laid out a plan for his people that involved declaring the city, and the neighbouring region of [[Mareave#Sinfoyard|Sinfoyard]], as a neutral state. A free port where both Imperial and Grendel merchants would be welcome, without favouring either.
