Viridian (City)

== Viridian - the gothic medieval capital ==
The city of Viridian, a capital claim for the Kingdom of Viridian.
The city was founded on the first few days of Abexilas by Stannis and Balerion Blackvale, brothers who have fled the ravages and chaos on Eldham, seeking the peace and dreams of hope that the new world had to offer. It was after a long voyage and travel across the lands that the brothers stumbled upon these lush plains where they both saw their dream come alive. 
After leading their remaining friends and survivors from the old world to this place, they setup camp right in the middle of the green fields, sending out parties to gather materials and harvest food so they could survive the first weeks.
Not long after more and more of their friends came over to settle on these rich lands and so they set out to expand their borders, creating the neighboring cities of Intumulo and Verdmont.
== History of Viridian ==
=== First weeks ===
The first weeks of Viridian were harsh.
=== Plague hits ===
After a good month and a half, a plague hit the Viridian citizens, rendering the life within the city to the minimal. The normal sound of the workforce, hammers coming down on the anvils and the saws running daily had stopped and the citizens were looking up to their leaders for an answer or solution, yet... this was harder than expected.
=== New beginnings ===
When the plague was over, the leaders of the city came together. It was in the grand hall where they sat down and discussed how to prevent or prepare for another plague and here it was decided they would turn around their previous ways. Life became more chill within the city and there was less pressure on the hard working men and women, the dream of the grand and towering houses and buildings is still alive, yet it was decided that this will take some time, which gave more time to enjoy our beautiful terrain and life outside of it all.
