Town of Mittenwelden
==History==
===⚜ The Dragon of Castell Welden===
Long time ago before King Temer allied the Vistulan tribes under the Ophanian banner, a stronghold rose on the Warmian Hill by the name of Castell Welden, meaning the castle of the valleys. The region was ruled by a rightful and fair King Warmus the Great whose reign enjoyed prosperity and wealth. King Warmus had also a beautiful daughter by the name Lianna whom many knights competed for. 
People of the region lived a peaceful and happy life. One day a terror filled them all as the dragon appeared in the sky. The dragon, by the name Krak who took a liking to a cave in the Warmian Hill, right under Castell Welden not paying any attention to the people who soon would become his meal. Finally people started leaving the region, fearing Krak who consumed helpless cattles all over the region.
Once happy and loud region turned into a grave yard. Leaving house wasn't so common anymore and was even considered an act of bravery. Helpless king turned not only to his advisors but also to the knights and citizens of the region. Many Knights-Errants and Bannerets tried to defeat the beast but with no success.
Finally a local shoemaker going by the name Mysic came up with an idea how to defeat the dragon. Under the cover of the night he sewed a false sheep which he fileld with sulfur. Then he left the sheep on a meadow near the monster's cave, among other, real sheeps. 
Upon his return, Mysic explained his idea to the people. Then a loud roar was heard. Once people ran up the castle walls to see what happens they saw a dragon who upon awaking ate the false sheep causing a fire in his stomach. Disturbed beast flew to the nearest lake and started drinking the water to put town the fire inside of him. The dragon couldn't control himself and despite being full he continued drinking until eventually his stomach exploded from the amount of water.
The people immediately approached Krak's corpse lying dead in a valley in which once a lake was. After they made sure the beast is dead they carried young Mysic back to the castle, straight to the King Warmus. The King happy with someone finally defeating the beast promised Mysic his daughter's hand to which young Lianna happily agreed. The wedding lasted a week and Mysic as a marriage gift for his bride made a pair of shoes out of dragon's skin.
