Analysis
"I take it Faq did fall?" - Prince AnsomErf-b1-p083
"Instantly. One turn I got a frantic message about an overflight of dwagons. On my next turn, I was a barbarian." - Jillian ZamusselsErf-b1-p083
Faq fell to Stanley after he was contacted by Wanda Firebaugh, who conspired with him to attack the capitalErf-b1-p147.
Wanda Firebaugh planned for the attack to take place expecting Stanley to fail in his attack, but switched sides to serve Gobwin Knob after it became apparent that Stanley would live and Faq would fall.
Jack Snipe was arranged to be out of the city at the time, but later was captured when the remaining two cities were razed by Stanley the Tool after this battle.
Speculation
Presumably, Faq's Predictamancer escaped into the Magic Kingdom. Any other Faq casters likely did the same or were croaked in the battle (or subsequent razings). It may be possible that one or more other casters (it is not known exactly how many existed at the court of Faq) were indeed captured, but since croaked.
