Somewhere southeast of the great continent lie a number of forts positioned on the Snake islands. It’s quite the merry bunch of land in the middle of the ocean. The forts stationed here are Sandria, Mugborn, Consto and three much smaller forts.
Sandria is the best weapon equipped fort. There live the best seamen you can find. They sleep in the armories, in the ship buildings, or anywhere in the wild but never on their ship. If you ask them why, the only answer you will get is that it trains them to appreciate the conditions in war or long sea travels. That place is nothing but weapon, ship building and bloody fights.
Mugborn, standing a bit afar is one of the bigger forts after Sandria. It also happens to be in a constant war with Consto for second place. That little war is the cause of the disturbance among the colonies on the smaller forts. Despite that this doesn't in any way hinder the trade routes going through Mugborn. They are as good as ever, and bring only the best cargo. The inns thrive, and so do the thieves. Cattle is watched, in the west part of the island, crops are south. Locally consumed and never distributed to traders, this is the islands savior.
In the East lie the docks. There is where ships port, exchange cargo and get supplies. That is also the place where new ships get build and old ones get repaired. The soul of our fort, Mugborn port.
As every great thing, even this has it’s weakness. It lies in the north, where “the islands scum” lives, as some say it. That part of the fort is special. Positioned by the high cliffs, with no whatsoever protection. Just two watch towers with drunken guards, fresh from the inns topper floors.
This is the little jolly town of Mugborn. Muddy streets, alcohol filled songs and stories, but colorful buildings and green land with some threes down by the water if you are lucky in where you look. A place no more suited for the trouble as the next town..
