Red Cliff (Town)

Situated in the south of Jagdas, the town of Red Cliff is a small settlement founded on 24 August, 2020. It is located about 12 hours boat trip south of Astroria, or a day's boat trip south of Apollo. The town mayor and only resident is Stallionswagman.

Geography
Red Cliff is situated on the Red Cliffs, a badlands plateau in the south of the world. The cliffs make up the western edge of the Coral Bay, named after the coral reef which lies in the middle.

Multiple native villages lie nearby, including one across the bay. The Duchy of Virdere lies to the northwest of Red Cliff.

History
Stallionswagman came to the Coral Bay in the days following the Coup of Kaihyo-Cho, of which he had newly become a member. Seeking a peaceful existence following the turbulent uprising, he was drawn to the natural beauty of the reef and cliffs, and to the abundant resources found through nearby native villages. After establishing a temporary base to the north of Astoria, Stallionswagman moved to the bay on 22 August, where he dwelt with the natives for some time before settling the town at its current location.

The constitution of Red Cliff, called "Red Cliff Ideas," was drafted and signed on 30 August.

Politics
As outlined in its constitution, the town of Red Cliff is officially neutral and pacifist. The constitution allows for aid to be given to a warring party if it is offered to both sides, and also calls for armed aggression in the case of self defense. Stallionswagman has made several personal interactions with individual citizens of Jagdas, but the town has not established official diplomatic ties with any other entity.

Natives
The native populations are of unknown origin, being lived in the area since before the discovery of the bay. Calling themselves "Wilakjə" (the people), they live in separate but related tribes in and around the Coral Bay. Their native language (called NL hereafter) is not entirely known, though the name for Red Cliff can best be translated as "sehteetilfjaet," or, "town of the red desert."
