History

This town was founded by the 9. As soon as they destroyed the enemies that had taken over, they settled the land and named the city Oakenhost. Creating 4 encampments for outsiders to migrate to, they settled amongst them. It is said the reason for each encampment was because the 9 had found those races the most amongst the peaceful races that dwelled in the Pervoyen forest. To promote comfort, they separated the races into their own areas and created a central hub where they could get to know each other.   Oakenhost then grew in numbers and started to overcrowd. At this point most of adventurers from the 9 decided to go off and found their own settlements.
