Rovina

Summary
The town of Rovina was established on 8/16/2020, in the center of a Mesa biome surrounded by a river to the North, East, and South. The town was established by Keechoo, as the area seemed fit for fishing and has a plentiful amount of salmon.

Etymology
Rovina, translating to "Ruin", is named after the old mineshafts that the town is built on. To the west of the town stands a hill of rock built entirely on the mineshafts of past civilizations. Original concepts for names were among those of Fiski, and Echibini. Both were scrapped as the ruins provided the largest influence on the town during its foundation.

Culture
Rovina is a town largely built off of fishing. Squid and salmon are a frequent food source in Rovina, though Rovinans are taught at a young age to respect the fish that they frequently feed off of. The majority of ink sacs gathered in the town are from squids which have died of natural causes, and fish are checked thoroughly before they are killed for food.

Religion
Rovina does not have an extreme focus on religion, though the main belief is that upon death, the selfless would be reincarnated as tropical fish, which cannot be fished or eaten to any degree. Pufferfish are thought to be royalty of other nations, and are treated with similar respect.

Salmon and cod are those of normal individuals. And, despite the respect they garner, squid are frequently considered frequent sinners.

St. Benedict Chapel
Some of the religion of Rovina has been partially influenced by that of the St. Benedict Chapel. Frequent visits from those of the St. Benedict Chapel have resulted in a slight belief towards the Legend of Benedict. However, this belief is largely scattered and not many follow the legend in truth.

Structures
The structures of Rovina were largely fractured and spread apart upon its founding. The order of structures are based upon when they were established.

Bridge of Mines
The Bridge of Mines is the main entrance to the town, constructed entirely from stone and wood extracted from old mineshafts scattered throughout the region.

The Ruins Project
The Ruins Project, started in 8/15/2020, before the town was established officially, is an operation to convert the mesa the town is based upon to a fertile land. So far, the project has seen fair success, as the majority of the town is currently laying atop dirt and sand established from the operation.

The entire reason for the project's beginning is unknown, though there are several ideas that the project was inspired by the Gods. This claim is only one of many, and the true purpose or reason for the project is not well known by any of the individuals in Rovina.
