Wishly Settlement in Kohtalo | World Anvil

Wishly

Written by drunkenpanda951

Wishly is a bit of a strange duck of a town. With the advent of the Twilight Trade in the year it became increasingly hard for adventurers to find a nice quiet place to retire. As such a favor was asked by one of the forgotten to have a peaceful settlement in the middle of nowhere for heroes and adventuring types to settle down, where they couldn't be found or bothered and could peacefully live out the rest of their days amongst their peers as a reward for services to the world, or so the story goes.   In the last couple of centuries Wishly has since entered into the Common lexicon in a number of ways   "Half-way to Wishly" is often used as describing the middle of nowhere, especially when used by younger folk lamenting not being closer to cities and excitement.   "They bought a map to Wishly" - they were conned   "Looking for Wishly" - 1. Daydreaming 2. attempting an impossible task 3. Gone missing, presumed dead (usually by or in reference to local hero's and soldiers that have left the area later in life sometime after having returned from "excitement")

Industry & Trade

Trade to and from Wishly is accomplished in in one of 3 ways   1. One of the forgotten passes through Wishly, picking up and dropping off goods.   2. A god stops by to pick up a magical artifact entrusted to or ordered from one of the towns inhabitants to go deliver "destiny" to some poor sap out in the world.   3. Some idiot got a wild hair up their ass and decided to ruin a perfectly good retirement because they "miss the adventure/excitement/whatever"
