Mycentz

Overview

Mycentz is a small holy monastery of Myconism under the control of Status Civitatis Mykitas, just off the Northern Coast of Yaszuma. The current Bishop of the island is Sister Ichne (ichnemonidae).

On the island are few key buildings. Including the Library of Myconism, The Mycentz Brewery, the Mycentz Cheesemongry, and a massive farm, which feeds most of the followers of the church. The island is also surrounded by low walls, which offer some small protection from Bandits and Enemies of the Church.

History

Mycentz was founded after the Bishop Ichne first joined with the Mycellium, and decided to seek out Pope Shroombeard. Upon her island she build a small storehouse, that acted as her place of worship until her Cathedral could be erected. It was from this tiny settlement that Ichne, then just a priest, would spread the word of Myconism to the Empire of Doriath, and acquire key converts that would help spread Myconism further. It was for these conversions that Ichne was granted the title of Bishop

The Monks of Mycentz would soon expand the small monastery as far as they could on the island, as half of it was taken up by a squatter, who had vanished a moon ago. The Library of Myconism was built, as well as the Brewery, attracting more Monks and converts to the Mycellium. As the church was being built, Mycentz was finally able to take control of the squatter settlement, which gave great boons in the form of food, resources, and coal, all of which went to the building of the church.

From the Library of Myconism, the Bishop wrote her Gospel, which is now freely available to all who wish to learn more about the Monastery and Myconism.

The Monks of Mycentz, due to rising tensions in the region, and a rising bandit population, built the Walls of Mycentz, which serve to protect the history and culture of Mykitas and Myconism. However, with the induction of Mykitas City into the Northern Lights, the Monks took down the walls, leaving only a few small towers to look out over the water.

Mycentz is a key location for international trade and relations to the south. As it's just off the coast of Yaszuma, road networks in the Northwest lead to Mycentz, rather than Mykitas City itself.

Culture

Mycentz is a very humble island, due to its small size and holy nature, the Monks are sworn to poverty and to the aid of allies. If there is anybody that is sick, wounded, or lost, the Monks of Mycentz are obligated to aid them. However, in times of conflict, the Monks are sworn to defend their allies and the mycellium with their lives.

Mycentz also has a deep literary tradtion, hosting the Library of Myconism. It was from the Library that Sister Ichne penned her Gospels, as well as officially codified the Mykitan Language.
