Acodon

Acodon is the capital of the Luxite Kingdom of Zefrania. It is a pretty large city, being over one year old it has experienced its fair share of glory and tragedies.

Founding
Acodon was founded by the Acodonite Tribe. A nomadic tribe which originiated from central Ummarnu, specifically around the forrested areas. Hence their skin colour. The two founders, Orleborle and TGOMaster had been seeking a place to settle down and abandon their nomadic routes. As to grant stability and peace to its people.

They stumbled upon the deserts of Ummarnu, with the heat driving them insane they followed a river until they reached an ideal place to settle. They quickly settled down and initiated constructions on houses.

Sinatra Mafia
Shortly after its founding and settlment, the town would be integrated into the Sinatra Mafia. The leaders were unaware that they were considered squatters. And when they were informed by the Sinatran King Wacko that it would be integration or destruction for them, the leaders were eager to gain integration as to spare their people humiliation and destruction, and perhaps even risking returning to their old nomadic period.

The Behemoth
The Behemoth is an ancient creature. The existance of the creature was first discovered by some people looking inside of "Mount Behemoth". They found some sand stone with runes carved into them, they quickly brought these out of the mountain and examined them, they found out that once a creature roamed these lands, protecting the people that lived inside the mountain before the Acodonites had settled the area. They eventually would find out that over time this ancient people started to abuse the creature, using it as a weapon to kill enemies and span an empire.

Sadly no real records of this empire exists other then the runes but they are very unrelaible. The creatures existance was confirmed when Orleborle passed out, he saw the creature roam around the city, he was alone this day, but said the elephant should be honored, as it is one of the things that he think will protect Acodon and that it deserves justice for what the ancient tribe did to them. Eventually a huge spine was found inside of the mountain, people say that it is the bones of the ancient creature, the people of Acodon likes be believe so. Later this creature would be named "The Behemoth" because of it's size.

People
The people of Acodon were originally from the center of Rathnir, being the ancient nomadic Acodonite Tribe. But as they found their home, the culture started to shift. A people before the Acodonians had inhabited the vast deserts, this people was known as the Kuzat. Culture started shifting towards the ancient Kuzat warrior and merchant spirits.

Religion
The people of Acodon started off practicing the Pavolist religion, but as an age of droud, starvation and other crisis hit Acodon they realized that no god was watching over them. So for a while most of the people of Acodon cursed Pavlo and were irreligious. This just made the times harder for the worn out governors of Acodon, until one day. As the remains of the river running by Acodon seemingly was about to dry out, a huge light appeared that arose from what water remained in the river.

It formed a figure, a woman. The figure looked at the city, and saw the state it was in. She flew up into the sky into the sun, and then it started raining heavily, but only in the river. Water cracked out from the huge Mount Behemoth, and fish sprung out as well, the farms started bringing tons and tons of food and the livestock were quickly fed.

The mayor Zedis Eydur was delighted, but was still left confused. He saw the event with his own eyes, but what could it be? He ventured north towards the Shahdom of Solisios where he was met by their Shah Beast. They spoke as Zedis brought up what had happened, and Beast knew from the description of said figure that it was Lux. He told Zedis to follow him into the massive Luxios university where he gave Zedis a bunch of books around Lux, and told him to spread it to his people. Zedis followed suit, and from that day onwards, the Acodonians have worshipped Lux staunchly.

They became full followers of Lux when the Miracle at the Holy Spring unfolded and Acodon became a holy Luxite city.

Geography
Acodon is situated in the south of the desert continent of Ummarnu located in western Rathnir. The intense heat has rarely been an issue to the Acodonians as the town is right by the large Behemoth River that runs through most of South Ummarnu. This has led to floods however the Acodonians quickly managed that aswell. Today they control and use the natural enviornment in their favour.

Governing
The town was governed under an authoritarian fashion by Zedis Eydur and Iou Zahir. However they took advice from citizens. (WIP)

Town
Acodon consists of one main city then two sub cities. These two sub cities used to be their own cities. But after the Great Zefranian Purge and the lack of mayors it was decided to integrate the cities.


 * Acodon: Main city oldest one
 * Takmandan: The second oldest city in Zefrania, it was integrated due to its mayor's (Lordivoldmordi) betrayal and attempted coup.
 * Fort Behemoth: Fort Behemoth used to be a huge fort never completed, to protect Zefranians south-eastern border with Vanyria.

Formation
The Acodon Milita was formed to counter the bandits which had started running amok in Ummarnu. The government established this to assure the people could be kept safe, along with creating walls around the city. Enlistment was voluntary.

Service
The militia of course, started by fighting bandits gaining it combat experience. The Sinatran government which the Acodonians were a part of at this point was on edge with another military force within the nations. But Acodon had grown too strong to be pushed around by the government at this point. The militia expanded to be the most well equipped and experienced military force within the entire nation. Making the national military reliant on them. It also saw service helping out its ally Solisios in the Relic Wars against Huitca leading the a closer relationship between the two.

Disbanding
After the Sinatran Civil War the militia was expanded and merged into the national army.
