The rebellion in Ice Rock City happened earlier than expected.
The rebellion which was originally planned for dusk, broke out near noon instead.
The reason is quite simple, and even laughable—
The slaves couldn't endure their hunger anymore.
These slaves, whose eyes had turned green from hunger, expected to follow the plan precisely. But their plan was mere fantasy.
Looking at the granary so close at hand, the slaves couldn't rein in their hunger any longer, rushing off towards it, discarding the leader's plans entirely.
With the cries of murder beginning, the slaves gathered at various granaries across the city, threw off their disguised masks, and rushed in to grab food.
Grabbing food, not releasing food.
The disorderly slaves, filled the term "grabbing food" with a bloody connotation.
Countless famished slaves rushed into the granary, their only aim was to get hold of some food.
