Crosshurst
Crosshurst is a small town located in a valley surrounded by mountains, in the eastern regions of the Bellor Empire. The town used to be prosperous due to its location as a trade route between several larger cities, but recent tensions and rebellions have left it destitute and run-down.

Government
The town's government has collapsed since the rebellion began, and there is no central authority in place. The town is currently being run by several different factions, including the rebels and the remaining loyalists to the empire
Assets
The town is unable to effectively maintain any assets or industries. The town's once-thriving trade has all but disappeared, and the only significant industry left is the local mining operations.
History
Crosshurst has a dark history of being a hotbed for racial tensions, with non-humans being regularly discriminated against by the town's human inhabitants. This discrimination ultimately led to the current rebellion, as non-humans rose up against their oppressors. The conflict shows no signs of resolution, and the future of Crosshurst remains uncertain.
