Tuhrifel

Tuhrifel is the largest city in the Republic of Redoriv. The city began construction on September 6th, 2021, though the land's true origins are in the Dragon Goddess Mura millennia ago. The city and state are ruled over by the Dragonguard, a permanent ruling council originally appointed by Mura herself.

Realm of the Dragons
The land that modern Tuhrifel sits on was originally the dominion of the Dragons. There they rested, having spent centuries surfing the currents of time with their Goddess, Mura.

The dragons existed in harmony with the bountiful land. The community thrived, knowing peace.

Arrival of the Humans
Eventually, a new species arrived at the Dragongrounds. They were humans, and they wished to settle there. Upon deliberation with her council, Mura agreed to share the land with them.

The Dragon War
Initially, the two existed in harmony. However, the human kingdoms grew envious of their dragon counterparts. Envy became fear, and the Kings of the Humans vowed to drive out the dragons.

The first battle happened upon the mount, when human warriors surprised Dragon Elders during their peace, killing them. The dragons laid chase and the humans fled. Many a battle was fought in the war and many a dragon were killed, not accustomed to the warlike ways of the humans.

The First Dragonguard
After years of fighting, a group of warriors led by two siblings from the human kingdoms presented themselves to the dragons, bearing with them no weapons and flying flags of peace. The siblings pled to meet with Mura, and their wish was granted. Mura, having deemed them worthy, heard them speak.

They told her that they wished to help the dragons in the war, renouncing the ways of the human kingdoms. Upon this news, Mura accepted them into the dragon community. They came to be known as the Dragonguard, and they helped to turn the tides of the war. The combined force drove off the human kingdoms, destroying the cities that had become a blight on the once pure landscape. The dragons buried their dead in the heart of the mountain and left, choosing to instead once again surf the currents of time. The Dragonguard were permitted to live their lives in the Dragongrounds in case a time came that they would need to protect the land.

Millennia of Quiet
The valley new peace and seclusion for a millennia. Settlers avoided the area, and the Dragongrounds were undisturbed. Nearby settlements, such as the city of Highmarch, were built nearby, though none of them encroached on the sacred space.

New Arrivals to Eldham
A band of warriors from across the horizon landed on the shores of Eldham on September 5th, 2021. They soon found themselves in southern Redoriv, in the land of Spruken. They were soon contacted by the President of Redoriv, oBerry, informing them of their position. The warriors sent scouts to the North, who soon relayed news of a more plentiful land. The group moved to the mountainous jungle. They constructed the first structures of what would become Tuhrifel, and were admitted into Redoriv as a state.

Meeting Mura
While working on the city, the felt the ground shake, and heard the mountains rumble. From them sprang Mura, the ancient Dragon Goddess. The warriors met with her, and she took them through the currents of time, showing them the mountain's past.

Having shown the warriors the significance of the Dragongrounds, Mura judged their hearts. Finding them worthy, she anointed them the new Dragonguard. She told them of the first Dragonguard of ancient times. The sibling-leaders of the band of warriors were named Tuhri and Fellock Windcaller, and the new Dragonguard named the city Tuhrifel in their honor.
