Mesatown

Mesatown
The city of Mesatown (formed in 7/15/2021) is a decent sized town in the Mesa and in Ardat. It is currently being run by Mayor ThatGuardianGuy, and he is part of the Ardati government. ,

Origins
The town was first created when two miners came stripmined into each other. One a merchant, another a wanna-be bandit. One proposed to be a town above from which their tunnels lay. Another agreed, and built a monument and a town house above. Thatguardianguy started plans to build up the town, first building a water tower saloon. Then, when his partner left on a journey to find coin, built a commerce center. After that, housing and a farming silo. When Guardian's partner returned, he did not return alive. Deeply sad and alone, the remaining partner recruited new people to fill the town. That's when he came under the attention of a governmental worker for Bardonia. At this time, Ardat was a region for the Empire of Bardonia. And at that time, Ardat didn't like people building their own towns in the Mesa. Nearby laid the ruins of a previous town Draamrith that resisted Ardat. Mesatown's posisiton could go either way. It was saved by the bureaucratic purgatory of Ardat never responding to the request of permission to exist. Later on, ThatGuardianGuy met a bardonian soldier named CommanderBsd. Commander settled in his town and they both became friends. ThatGuardianGuy at that time wanted to declare independence from Bardonia and Ardat when the town grew enough to survive that. Commander loyal to bardonia, persuaded him to postpone that, and to join the Bardonian army. Guardian, serving in the army, fought in a few battles. Most notably, he was one of the first 5 to stay behind and to fall with commander in the last stand of New Dorrastorrock. Guardian barely survived the battle, Commander did not. Guardian was again alone, but fighting and losing at the senate building gave him a sense of commitment. It gave a him a sense of loyalty and family to Bardonia. Therefore, he met with Ardat's leader Azael to make Mesatown a legitament town in the Ardat mesa. Now legitimised, the town grew with great speed.

The Aldovir Mercenary and Resistance Incident
Unfortunately, one of the new members was a separatist of the Aldovir government. He was evicted from his town, and exiled. ThatGuardianGuy gave him and his buddy save shelter. One of them killed the new mayor of the town the seperatist was exiled from, and Aldovir sent mercenaries to kill him and Guardian. He and Guardian killed them, and Guardian sorted out the issue with the aldovir government. The seperatist established a resistance in aldovir and thanks Guardian for his help, and left with his buddy. Guardian was later invited to that resistance movement, and joined for a while.

Friendship and Rivalry With Draamrith
Later, the nearby ruins of Draamrith were taken back up by one of it's former members Scyther_. When Draamrith joined Ardat, a rivalry formed when Scyther said he was Ardat's favorite child. The rivalry continued when they both started dueling, and Guardian won most times. The rivalry finally ended when Draamrith became unclaimed when Scyther became inactive in the nation and upkeep was turned on.
