Oakenheart

Oakenheart is the largest of all seven Loot Towns. It is divided into two parts, the town proper and the castle. Oakenheart is an important town, being the primary location of Bandits and the entrance to the Bandit cave. It also appears to have been one of the only self-sufficient Loot Towns, with a sizable wheat farm to the east of the town.

==History==
The codex page for Oakenheart contains a brief history of the town. It reads as such. 
"Oakenheart once was a thriving mining town, known for producing quality tools as well as the production of ultrahard steel. The town was built around an older castle that was used as a stronghold for local military troops and government officials. After the fall of Shiganshina, bandits took over the town and used the castle as a base for protection from titans and enemies".
There is one other mention of Oakenheart in the codex entry for Ironhaven, stating that the two villages were both former Ironsson settlements, and traded ores and tools with each other. 
==Trivia==
*In late 2020, during the TikTok Surge, a small number of veteran players led a large number of new players to Oakenheart on a Survey expedition. Link himself led the charge out of the Trost outer gate on a horse with diamond armor. Signal Flares were utilized and every player present rode on horseback. 
*The Oakenheart castle used to be home to a member of the Crimson Insurrection. However, there are no records of who the specific person was.
*As mentioned in the codex, Oakenheart frequently trades with Ironhaven. What it doesn't mention though is that Oakenheart and Ironhaven transport traded goods through underground tunnels, despite the fact that there is a mine entrance at Oakenheart but not at Ironhaven.
