Mattisburg

CITY: MATTISBURG

a Small town to the south of Regius occupied by hard-working people and high-class soldiers from all across the land. History has it that when Regius City was under attacked centuries ago, Mattisburg served as a barrier, garrisoned by elite soldiers preventing the advancement of the attackers and ultimately preventing the fall of Regius City.

The town is one of the smallest around but there are three famous locations that people should know about. One of which is the Hall of the Brave and the Meschermid’s Cemetery.

Meschermid’s Cemetery was named after Brook Meschermid, the mightiest hero in the great defense. The Cemetery is decorated with medals of all of the heroes that have fallen from the past and now. In the middle of the Cemetery, there is a water fountain and it is believed if a person drank from the fountain it gives them courage and good luck, this is why soldiers, warriors, adventurers, mercenaries, and traders drink from it whenever they have the chance before venturing off to a different city.

CITY: MATTISBURG [PROPHETIAE]

The City of Mattisburg is a small town to the south of Regius.

In plain sight, everything seems humanly normal, but things are not what they always seem.

Although it is a Military base for Humans, the Vampires are slowly increasing their numbers as well, creating an army within the enemy’s base.

The Vampires that reside in this town are and are directly under the command of Elite Turqs from Prophetiae.

As they construct the perfect plan to bring about the return of the Blood Moon, these Halflings turn Human beings into recruits.

For the Vampires, there are a couple of key places in the City and they are

the Burlington Church and the Meschermids Cemetery.

LOCATION: MESCHERMIDS CEMETERY

Located in the Eastern part of town separated by a thin patch of forest, the Meschermids Cemetery is a Cemetery dedicated to high-ranking soldiers and people who bravely defended Regius and although the place is highly decorated and praised, the Cemetery has its dark side.

There have been countless reports of people going to the Cemetery at night and vanishing without a trace, the whereabouts of many of those people are still unknown to this day. Some don't believe the tale and say that it was all made up by the many rebellious teenagers to justify their nightly adventures.

LOCATION: SANGUEN HALL

Located in the North part of town, the Sanguen Hall is known across all of Regius.

Before it was turned into what it is now, it used to be one of the two Head Quarters that was constructed during the great defense. The place is governed and taken care of by the Town Chieftain Ramiel. The name Sanguen comes from the Headquarters being the last stand of many officers who stalled enemy forces

Nowadays, when a person is awarded or honored high rewards, the ceremony is held in its halls and a small feast for the invited few takes place in a restaurant called “Bolicious”

LOCATION: BOLICIOUS

Bolicious is a prestigious small private restaurant owned and operated by non-other than the Legendary Abo-do. The restaurant only opens during special occasions such as Hall Ceremonies, requests from high-ranking officials, government gatherings, and other high-value events/occasions.

LOCATION: OLD BURLINGTON CHURCH [PROPHETIAE]

The Old Burlington Church is an abandoned church built some 60 years ago.

It used to be the middle of town, but as time passes and new buildings and interest arose, the center of town slowly drifted away from it. A newer church has been built and it took the same name and ever since, the church has been left for nature to take care of.

It is said that Young adults, homeless and drunk people come here when they can’t make it home or are just too drunk to go on, some travelers that cannot afford a night at the Inn often stay here as well to pass the night.

Ever since its abandonment, stories have circulated throughout the city, some even reaching Regius. It is rumored that people who stayed the night there hear cries and see figures walking around the church as many have lost their lives in the place, more terrifyingly, some of the traveler groups have reported missing companions, groupmates that seemingly abandoned the journey and have never been seen again.
