They call it simply "rebellion in Ebbing" on Polish site but that is not explanatory enough.

It also now occurred to me: the Maecht insurrection seems to have been a part of the Ebbing-Gheso one. It's all mentioned on the same page in Time of Contempt. We first learn Kayleigh fought for Ebbing and met Reef, that's followed by mention of Giselher and how the lord of Geso joined Ebbing insurgents. When Mistle is being mentioned Duke Rudiger is said to have joined the insurrectionary army. Joined, so it already existed. Asse also lost family when the Nilfgaardians plundered the territories of the insurrectionary confederacy. Makes all the more sense that this event was a catalyst for the formation of the Rats.
