    In short:

    After defending themselves on 13 Adar, Esther asked the king for permission for the Jews in Shushan to do the same on 14 Adar. As a result, the Jews all over the world rested from fighting their enemies on 14 Adar, while the Jews in Shushan did so on the 15th.

    But if you're using terms like "mareh mkomos," I suspect you knew that already.
