History
Vidavue was originally founded as a small town, near a small spring. It was originally a trading town, but evolved over time due to technological and magical advancements. Vidavue became the bustling and flashy city it is today.
The city itself reminds of places like Cancun and Las Vegas, and I like it! Overall I think the article is very concise and to the point! I love I get to have a feel of the city without much explanation. But I would like to know more about the history of the place and the addiction runes. Maybe that could be an expansion after Summer Camp? Just a thought!
Oh I could definitely add more in the future, it seems like Addiction Runes piqued the interest of a few so I could do that! It would be fun. : D
