Riverside

Riverside is a town near Felicity built near a picturesque lake and hill region. It began as a small fishing community before the Dragon Blight, but a century after Tumult was founded, the Willowrush family set their eyes upon it to make it a resort town for the nobility of Felicity. Built on luxury and leisure, the town became fairly wealthy though sparsely populated despite its proximity to Felicity. Additionally, the area became a practice ground for the Tumult military, as they trained their cavalry here.
Though many fluff novels base their stories in Riverside, to most the world the town was of little note. That was until 1040 when an unheard of winter came to the region. This brief period was called the Frozen War, where the Willowrush family, the Tumult military, the fey of Silihadron, and a group of adventurers fought against a child of Frit. After the war, the city has become a research and development site for the war effort against the Dormant.
