Stort: History and Rumors

Jump to navigation Jump to search

A small fledgling port hamlet, Stort is the only truly civilized settlement on Alibor due to its residents being of civilized races rather than being of the pygmy race. The reason this small town exists, and continues to do so, is due to the Raven Trade Guild, who was able to acquire a piece of land from the ruler in Zinzunzan. Much of the town is still under construction, but plans for a dock, housing, stores, and even a fort have been completed. Now, it is only a matter of time and resources to convert all these plans into reality.

Stort receives almost all of its goods through ships travelling there to deliver produce, normally coming from Alindor since there are few farms in Stort and fewer crops that can abide Alibor's climate. The only other ships that travel to Stort are normally only going there as a stop-off. There are only a few that will put into port for the night, most leaving the island as soon as possible. It's hardly surprising that there are very few that dare settle on the island, even though, the pygmy people leave Stort and its inhabitants to their own devices.
