Trempania

Trempania is an important town in southern Coreune right on the border with Hallandy, and the capital of Giarda Canton. Consequently, it has become a heavily fortified military supply center for Coreunean forces throughout the region. In times of peace, Trempania has been somewhat of a military city, but now it is truly the first line of defense against the ongoing zombie plague in Hallandy. The presence of so much military has created a tense society, however the residents still recognize the importance of the army in their city. Locals have heard tales of zombies decimating entire towns, and other bloody tales, and fear their turn may come soon. They are a stalwart people who have stood against threats from Hallandy before, and are no strangers to hostility, yet Trempania has never seen so many soldiers for so long. Daily, war-ravaged troops carry back the wounded from their excursions south, and gunfire can often be heard in the distance.
Many Hallandic refugees have escaped into Trempania, but due to ongoing hostilities between the two countries, Hallanders are not given much freedom in Trempania, and many view the city as a de facto prison. As their situation back home grows more desperate, many Hallanders are cut off from their families back home and prevented from making a new living in Trempania. Many turn to crime, and Hallander crime rings are heavily targeted by DSS factions stationed in town.
Trempania was never a major city, but now its population swells with both garrisoned soldiers and refugees, and the city has become a hive of activity with the pounding of hammers and the sawing of boards as walls are reinforced and new buildings are hastily put together. Even so, Trempania looks very much like it did before, with clever wooden construction being the architectural style of choice. Although it is an impressive hall in the old style, even the home of François Jantot, Earl of Giarda, is made of the same large wooden beams as the rest of the town. Rainfall is quite significant here during most of the year, muddying the dirt streets and contributing to Trempania's rundown appearance. Visitors are often struck by how small and undeveloped it appears since it lacks many of the comforts one might expect in a town of this size.
