Sigtuna

Sigtuna is a town in eastern Najer.
==History==
===Founding===
Sigtuna was founded by Jaxamaxlas (Charles Lastor) on the 18th of May, 2021. Jaxamaxlas had been wandering Rathnir for three months, after his home in Ryzan was burned. Upon coming to Najer, he decided that this was the place he would finally settle in. He would settle in a abandoned Najer fort in Mount Sigtana which the city would be named after. He still burned with hatred and anger, craving revenge against Bardonia, who he blamed for burning his town. This would lead him to trouble when he found out that his new house was built in the Emirate of Najer, who was allied to Bardonia.
He invited more people to build homes next to his, officially creating Sigtuna. But Jax didn't want a town, he wanted a nation. Although it was founded right next to the capital, the Najer government thought that Charles would have stayed and then gone, but Jax didn't leave, in fact he continued making buildings on the mountain and even on the main road connecting to Wobambi-on-Sea Then, one day, Jax encountered Bron019 (Alexander Vikhrov). Jax who thought he was a Najer diplomat started to claim that he was independent and that the government could do nothing about it. But Bron was actually interested in joining Sigtuna. And so the two men met in the Fort that Jax first settled in and soon began discussing their plans for the city.
=== Peak of Sigtuna ===
Although the two men wanted the best for Sigtuna they both had very different ideas. Jax believed the city would do better if it was its own independent city state while Bron wanted to join Najer. Eventually the Najer government decided to intervene and told Jax to either join Najer or be considered a squatter town and face military action. Jax got mad with the Najer government but Bron quickly found out about what was happening and managed to negotiate with the Najer government and convince Jax to join Najer. Soon after Bron and Jax worked on the constitution and laws of Sigtuna and now Sigtuna was officialy a city in Najer. 
The constitution created the Counsel of Sigtuna and soon after many moved to Sigtuna to see if they could get a role as a counselor. More and more people moved to Sigtuna and soon it became the most populated town in Andamooka. Sigtuna had even bought abandoned cities across southern Andamooka such as Pom Nafar, Skahashi, and a Casino/hotel called Godama. New buildings sprouted up in the air constantly, it was given the name "The City of Prosperity" because according to Bron he heard a father telling his daughter. "My child we live in the city of prosperity!" Elections where held every month for Counselor and every two months for Head Counselor. When the Head Counselor election came along there was excitement in the air, this would be the first major democratic election in Sigtuna history. The two contenders where Dragonborn, the current Counselor of Natural Resources and the incumbent Jaxamaxlas. Little did few know in Sigtuna this would be the first and last election in Sigtuna
=== Head Counselor Election ===
A man by the name of SilverFrames who had been gaining political influence in Sigtuna was on the ballot for Counselor of the Military. Was gaining power in Sigtuna. He created a group called The Sigtuna Mafia. Silver promised to Jax that the mafia would create shops across Najer and would boost the Sigtuna economy. Jax agreed and allowed Silver to begin advertising the mafia around Sigtuna. Many citizens joined it contributing money to the mafia so it could grow, with the money Silver gained a large following of people and made his own news broadcast in Sigtuna. Once the Head Counselor elections came along Silver heavily endorsed Dragonborn to be the next Head Counselor of Sigtuna. He even stated publicly that he was sure Dragonborn would win and said the entire mafia would be voting for Dragonborn, this made both Bron and Jax suspicous and after Jax decided to take it up to Bron and asked him if he thought Silver was acting odd he concluded that Silver was just being cocky and his vote was safe with Jax and he feels many other members of the mafia thought the same. 
Voting Day came along. There where long lines of people at several ballot polls in the city as almost 3/4 of the population was voting in the elections. The next day at noon the results were announced by a third party from Mirwa. As the man of Mirwa entered the city a crowd of people were huddled around main street. Both Jaxamaxlas and Dragonborn were in the middle along with the man who was soon to announce the results. If Dragonborn was declared winner he would be inaguarated on the spot and make a speech there. If Jax won he would simply just head back into the Head Counselor office and make a speech later the day. Suspense was in the air, citizens biting their nails wondering what history would choose on this very day. The man pulled out the scroll. "The winner of the Head Counselor elections of Sigtuna, with 61.5% percent of the popular vote, is incumbent Charles Lastor!" Most of the crowd erupted in cheers, although there were some unhappy faces in the crowd, a majority of people were celebrating and cheering. But the man with the biggest frown on his face was none other than SilverFrames. He left the crowd and as many of his right hand men saw him leave they followed his direction. As many citizens and militia was watching Dragonborn and Jax shake hands and Dragonborn accepts defeat SilverFrames leaves in the shadows to begin plotting "THE SIGTUNA REVOLUTION"
=== Sigtuna Revolution ===
A few hours later all is peace, the newly elected Counsel is saying a toast to Jax besides SilverFrames who is missing, Jax decides to shrug it off and makes a toast, a toast to democracy and freedom. Before their glasses can clink a scream is heard outside and is followed by others. All members of the Counsel leave the building and immediatly freeze when they see the horror upon them. Buildings in Sigtuna have taken fire. Horses are galloping through the road throwing torches at houses as they move. Counselor of Construction RowanBacrpr spots someone familiair, SilverFrames on a horse leading the arson. Jax orders Bron to ring a bell on top of Fort Sigtana to alert the militia to begin helping stop the protest, Rowan spots something else, some members were wielding rifles which were a rarity in Najer, obviously they used the mafia donations to buy them. Jax knew the militia wouldn't stand a chance against better technology. Once the militia was orginized Jax ordered some of the militia to make a scout team to go to Mirwa and ask the Brotherhood of Tauros for reinforcements. The rest of the militia would try to corner Silver's rebbelion. So the plan was simple, by the time the militia was able to corner them there was fires in many buildings in the city, some bodies even on the floor, the militia managed to trap SilverFrame's army in the middle of the road since the army wasn't that big. Meanwhile Jax ran to Wobambi to try to convince the Emir or the Governess of Andamooka for assistance, but instead of meeting either he ran into Raptor Amenruta. Jax, who was running out of patience began yelling at Raptor saying that if it weren't for the government the city would be perfectly fine, Raptor thought that Jax was just exaggerating and was quite offended by his rude manner and replied saying "Your city." And walked away without thinking about it again. Jax now furious was about to begin yelling again but Raptor was already in another corrider
Back in Sigtuna, the brotherhood of Tauros managed to arrive and was able to detain SilverFrames and his rebelious group. Jax had finally returned. By the time the ash settled Jax was supposed to be making his speech, but instead he would be making a speech to the people about what terrible events went on. Bron looked straight into the eyes of SilverFrames, once a friend, now a traitor, a scum, a murderer. The once blossoming Main Street of Sigtuna was turned the rubble, sobs could be heard in the distance, a man smoking a cigar leaning on a half destroyed wall, things were miserable. Horses began galloping into the city, The Najer Armed Services arrived at the scene, in shock at what happened. They began investigating and searched houses, they took SilverFrames and Dragonborn to a jail in Wobambi-on-sea to be tried against the law of Najer, as some people thought Dragon was also behind the rebellion. A Najer soldier was searching Jax's house and he found some incriminating pieces of evidence. A book with plans on how to destroy Bardonia, how to destroy Najer, how to convince people in Sigtuna the revolt, plans for independance, and other very revolutionary ideas, this book was written by none other than Charles Lastor. As Jax was about to be detained by the Najer soldiers Bron who was still confused begged for the guards to release Jax and there must've been some misunderstanding and the next day they could figure it out. So the soldiers decided to agree with Bron but they told him to follow along. Bron did as such and the general, Just_Shooter, began explaining what they saw. They told him that this evidence was enough to strip Jax of his role as Head Counselor and get him exiled from Najer, he also mentioned that if Bron defended Jax the Najer government would trust him less. Bron in shock of the news nodded his head and returned back to Sigtuna. By the time he was back it was almost midnight. There were still people on the streets trying to get shelter for the night knocking on doors that weren't affected by the blaze. When Bron arrived at Jax's house he told him what Shooter said and what could potentially happen. Jax looked at him without emotion, almost just tired, as if he already had his mind made up but it was impossible to read what he had decided. Jax nodded. "We'll discuss this tommorow morning, its been a long day hasn't it Alexander, come to my house then we'll discuss." Bron nodded and headed back to his house, those were the last words Charles Lastor said to Alexander Vikhrov.
