Jump to: navigation, search

Redtown, a strategically positioned town on the eastern shore of Colony Bay in northeast Oldeshire, stands as a testament to both its founder, Reddfighter, and its historical significance. The town shares its borders with Darktown to the southwest and Batavia to the northwest, creating a unique blend of natural defenses and man-made structures.

Overview

Redtown's defensibility is a defining feature, with natural mountain barriers to the north and south. To the east, a formidable city wall provides protection, while the sheltered harbor on the western side connects to Colony Bay through a dramatic natural arch.

Perched atop one of the hilltops, the Viceroy Temple is a prominent landmark honoring those who have earned the prestigious title of Viceroy.
