Fynxshire

Fynxshire is a merchant-town in the Northeast of the Řavma region in Lutum, Maddrak; more specifically, it is located in the Hařos desert. Fynxshire has a long and rich history and has gone through several name changes-- such as Victoria, New Lumpshire and finally, Fynxshire-- due to new mayors being appointed. Despite being located in the middle of the Hařos desert, Fynxshire is quite hospitable due to the town being built around a grand oasis known as the Cool Lagoon. It consistently attracts many tourists and merchants from all over Eldham who want to set up shop, trade, or even live there on occasion; with many vacation homes being built around the area.

Early History
Fynxshire is believed to be the origin of the Gnirusull, serving as their primary area & shelter. Originally, the town was known as Ahun’han, which more or less translates to “Oasis Town.” was established next to a large lake so it could serve as a source of water for the catfolk. For a long time, all the Gnirusull did was fish for food & build up their town, this led to Fynxshire having a relatively high standard of living & being densely populated. The large population eventually led to further exploration & the founding of settlements and towns. Port Lutum was originally a small settlement founded by the Gnirusull, it would later be taken over by a hostile force led by Tucimam --aptly nicknamed the “squatter king”-- to establish the infamous town of Babylus, which of course would later become the grand city of Port Lutum. These explorations would also lead to the founding of other towns such as Nekoshire & Nyavashire, along with a few others that would go on to become ghost towns repurposed by others. The expansion & peace of the Gnirusull would not last forever, however.

The Ancient Gnome Empire, ((NAME)), arrived in Maddrak around these times, enslaving many of the Gnirusull to do their bidding. Some would flee to Rathnir & other continents while others held out in forts and more secure cites, like Nyavashire & Nekoshire.
