Maud'Dib

Maud'Dib is a booming district in Cascade, capital city of Irulan, where most of the city's homes lie. It was originally started by Cassio Cairtu, but it was later on passed to Dvusi Godd-Fjell after Cassio's untimely death. Dvusi was able to bring Maud'Dib out of its financial stalemate alongside his wife WilyNily and his fellow Cascadian citizens, thus establishing it as a landmark within Post-Valorant War Irulan. There's little information in Maud'Dib's true start, due to most citizens from around that time that are still alive where only babies back then. The most accurate retelling the Irulani Culture Department could gather came from Alphdeim Nevaris, currently forty-five, who was in his early 20's during the founding of Maud'Dib. Quote from Alphdeim:

"'When I came to Maud'Dib, or as it was called back then, 'The Land Over the River', it was only but a forest hunted to extinction. The Cairtu had hunted every single animal there to extinction, and I really do mean every single one, so they figured sending a young one like me to a place like that would 'Foresee Irulan's Future' as Cassio himself had put it. Now I wasn't much of a laborer back then; I was barely able to shake off my morning drowse, and yet the Cairtu were now sending me other the river into a job I had absolutely no idea how to do. Well as I got there I noticed one clear thing, that darned land was as rocky and as arid as could be! Two years, two years I spent working the land cutting down trees, bringing some wildlife back, and even growing kelp in the darned rivers all in an effort to at least have something to show to the Cairtu. As fate would have it, the Arka would soon send me to the southern border, shortly after making me a Wazir, to deal with the then existent Duchy of lubonia. After the day I marched from the city and gave my last goodbyes to the Cairtu, for their ship sank not long after, Cassio Cairtu would take charge of my beloved project. I still remember the bittersweet return to Maud'Dib as if it were yesterday; I was in love with that place and everything Cassio had done to it, yet I came back not in joy but in the grief of their funeral. Maud'Dib then became the land of Dvusi, as I would supervise the blooming man from just over the river, I was able to see him assume a role of leadership I had never seen in him before. Nowadays I visit the Landsraad Inn in Maud'Dib more often than I should, that can't be good for an old man like me, where I reminisce on the parties the Cairtu would host in that tiny cramped inn. '"
