Founded in 614, as a safe place for multi-raced lovers the town has exprienced slow growth. The town was on the Eastern boarder of the Golden Kingdom of Bacon until the War of Pyresh touched it's boarders in 658. Once the war ended in 659, the town experienced a surge in population as half-humans from the Iron Empire fled the county.
