18,000 men and about 84,000 of their family members petitioned to join the Burgoignesc Foreign Legion as the Bimalpal Volunteers division to avoid being caught up in the ethnic cleansing that was common in the Pursatni Bush War. The soldiers and their retainers were used to in the Pursatni Bush War but the territory was formally ceded to Pursat at the conclusion of the conflict. The Bimalpal Volunteers were then invited to join the Legion at their base in Torlen. The division was used as part of the Burgoignesc response to the Quds War. It was curious that the retainers were also brought along as they had no military value. In the Battle of Ankirava, the division and all of its retainers were captured by the Recepi Army and little attempt was made to rescue them. The unit was almost immediately drummed off the rolls of the Burgoignesc Foreign Legion. The action caused an uproar in Tapakdore, who had seen the invitation of the retainers to join the soldiers in Torlen as an olive branch between Burgundie and Tapakdore. The Government of Burgundie made a formal protest to the Legion, but no punitive action was ever taken.
