Due to insights and theories formed from the Night of the Mothertoad the Council announced a trial they called GodGrinder. This would be a death match tournament, and the victor would be made a Citygod, alongside Illa Phasmere and The Mothertoad.
Mages trained and scrambled to empower themselves in various ways before the event.
The trial lasted many sleeps, and hundreds of lives were lost. Finally, only two remained.
Filo Rooke and Mercian Vetch fought, and Mercian won - at the cost of her face, mutilated in an arcane explosion. Such injuries are unusually crippling for lehlts, who rely on the envy of others to remain beautiful - and are resistant to cosmetic magics as a result.
The Council then made Mercian a Citygod. To her horror, they then resurrected Filo - whose body was mostly in tact and thus feasible to revive in this era - and made him a Citygod as well.
With two more of Nodd's most powerful mages in the Council's grasp, the city grew unfettered.
The Council has yet to hold another trial of the same caliber, much less select new members through it. MageGrinder began to fill the void in the hears of citizens who were thrilled by GodGrinder and the excitement ir provided. Numerous mages actively participate in hopes of being noticed in some form or another to gain prestige and power.
