Fortuna

Fortuna is a town in Viodoxa, in the province of Silvay.



Etymology
The earliest records of the name were when Flavius Justinianus founded the town, who called it 'Fortuna'. After a coup in Interium, the former leader Flavius decided to integrate the town into Seratovia, so it wouldn't fall in Greater Karolium's hands. At first this didn't succeed, and Karolium, as a response to this, renamed the city Synechis and prepared for war against Flavius.

When the Battle of Fortuna ended, the Karolium settlers who were previously against Flavius sided with him, accepting the name Fortuna.

Religion
The local religion is Fortunism, a monotheistic religion with Fortuna as the deity. Alcohol is forbidden, and it holds a disdain for polytheistic belief.

According to Fortunism, the Universe was created by Fortuna. She then needed help watching it with 3 demi-gods who resemble the 3 worlds of Stoneworks: Jagdas, Rathnir and Eldham. One day, 2 of these demi-gods allied against Jagdas' demi-god and killed them. When Jagdas' demi-god died, this pulled the migration to Rathnir, because of the unstability the world was suffering. Fortuna saw this, so she trapped Rathnir and Eldham gods and she oversaw both of these worlds instead.

Geography
It is a coastal city that borders a bay off Cymru's coast. It's also surrounded by mountains, making the road connecting the city to Holy-Terra the only possible way to access.

The biomes surrounding it are varied, including snowy mountains, taiga and a forest.

Foundation
It was founded as Fortuna by Flavius Justinianus on 21st August 2021, inside the nation of Viodoxa.

Walls

Governor appointment

Viodoxan collapse
Exactly 2 months after the town was founded, the Imperial Archonate of Viodoxa collapsed, releasing its provinces. Fortuna became part of Interium, one of the successor provinces, with Flavius and Khan as leaders.

Coup in Interium
10 days later, an internal crisis in Interium caused Flavius to be demoted from his rank, resulting in him wanting his town to join Seratovia.

Town Rename
It was renamed as Synechis by the new Karolium settlers, and the town was currently entering a state of war, to decide who gets ownership of the town.

Battle of Fortuna
The Battle of Fortuna happened due to the crisis between Karolium and Fortuna. After a quick decisive battle, Fortuna won the war by a landslide victory, and the Karolium settlers switched sides to join Fortuna.

Fortuna in Seratovia
Shortly after the war, Seratovia accepted Flavius' request and it joined Seratovia, into the Silvay province. The population of the city multiplied in only hours.

On 13rd November 2021, the town expanded its walls towards south-east. On 21st November 2021 it was expanded once again to include a market.
