Renapheus

Renapheus (Lo'Oi: Rénaféos) (Kolsson: Rryna) (Mari: Rédha) often simply called Rena, is a city in the United Socialist States of Eldham. It is the most populous city within the State of Adalor. It was founded as a city named Aimapolis by a player named Killer097gr in the Imperium of Pergamos. Much of the city is known to be inhabited by German speakers.

It is widely known as a site of pilgrimage for Makerists, for the Blessing of the River GONF which happened in the city.

It is widely known for its architecture, inspiring the 'Pergamian' architectural movement in the USSE which can be seen in other cities like Andromeda.

History of Renapheus
After the fall of Pergamos, the city was left mostly uninhabited. Eventually, people including AmazonAlexa came from the fellow Adalorian township of Sentria and brought some friends with him, including Raistlin Serebra and Jorah Necrothar. They started with the construction of new houses and brought Renapheus back to life. In the times of the the Adalorian Independence Crisis Renapheus at first supported KPxTiger, but switched sides after realising that Kpx just used them for his wealth. After gaining autonomy Renapheus was the only city that kept close ties with the United Socialist States of Eldham. It's Mayor at the time, Raistlin Serebra, would go on becoming the new Governor of Adalor and brought it back to the USSE. In the months after, the people of Renapheus tried to better Adalors repuation within the USSE. With some of them leaving the City in this process, Renapheus ones again fell into a deep sleep. It was the son of AlexaAmazon that brought back the flame to Renapheus. He and the old friends of his father began further building projects and created an entire brand new district for the city, which brought the City back to life. The revitalization of modern Renapheus is largely attributed to its new citizens from the USSE.

Location
It is built along the artificial Gonf River and is today considered a holy site. Initially the city was built on an island surrounded by a lake; this changed when the USSE Commission of Development began construction of a canal connecting it to the Ythmyrr Bay and Haxhoit Sea, when the canal was suddenly 'dug out' by a deity and filled with water. Multiple religions and cults claim responsibility for the miracle, and the temple built on the river is considered holy by Oxinto practitioners, Mari Paganists, and Gonfists. While much of the USSE is secular, Renapheus is one of the few exceptions and is the only strongly religious city in the Western section of the country.
