Red wedding, take a hike!
"The survivors in Damascus are confronted on a dark night as the victorious Abbasids sweep into Syria and invite the Umayyad nobility to a "feast of reconciliation." ... The feast is to be held in the Umayyad palace, and everyone gathers ... The dinner is made up of the victors and the defeated ... when most are lulled by wine and food into the quiet of evening, the secret orders goes out among the visitors, and the terrible swords begin to do their duty. The Abbasids mercilessly slaughter every man, woman, and child of the Umayyad court, from cooks and servants to the wives of the harem, the sons and daughters, the cousins and retainers .... Nurseries, bedchambers, and kitchens become pools of blood, and the stones of Damascus ring out with a sound no one should ever have to hear ..."
