Conflicting Lives- Island And Cities

Conflicting Lives- Island and Cities

Welcome to the Island! (Name in progress)

This is where the entirety of Conflicting Lives will take place. There are 5 cities on the island: Hermiton, Cursia, Wynnra, Empyria, and Survas. Each city is moddled after a Minecraft SMP Server: Hermitcraft for Hermiton, CursedCraft for Cursia, Wynncraft for Wynnra, EmpiresSMP for Empyria, and Project:SSC for Survas. (The servers associated with Curisa and Survas are very small and private servers that I as the author are apart of, and will not go into much further information about, but they both mean something to me so I have decided to include them in the story.)

Hermiton is the largest city by both land and population, and this is where most of the Hermits live. The terrain is full of rivers and lakes, but many have adapted by building homes in the water as to get away from the otherwise crowded areas. The Hero Agency is also located in Hermiton, in the farthest northeast area near the borders of Empyria and Wynnra. Some of the top Heros are often stationed in Hermiton, most often living there as well.

Empyria is the second largest by population, but second smallest by land. The terrain is very flat, will smal crests of hills dotted around the more central and western areas. This is also where most Heros-In-Training go to better learn and train to be a full fledged hero, though there are training facilities in each city, with Empyrias being the largest. One of the largest reporting firms have originated from Empyria.

Wynnra is the middle ground of all cities by both population and land. The terrain is very hilly and sometimes a bit difficult to navigate, but overall very calm and open. There are schools for different ype of magic users, and usually they stick to themselves in their school (those with fire magic often go to school that teach about fire magic, not schools that teach about other magic). Most would classify Wynnra as class based in terms of who goes where at what times in their life, but to Wynnrans, they are simply sticking by what and who they know. Some of the most powerful and dangerous villains are rumored to be from Wynnra.

Cursia is the second largest city by land, but second smallest by population. This is due to its very steep and mountainous terrain. The elevation quickly rises to an uninhabitable level where the tallest of the mountains are, but even on some of the smaller ones it gets too cold for most people to be comfortable. Most live by the coasts or on the small islands to the north, however there has always been a large concentration of civilians in the sound eastern area along the hermiton border. The well-known Crusia University is also located at the southern coast, providing all kinds of study opportunities for all to experience.

Survas is the smallest of all the cities by both population and land. This is due to the lack of most natural recourse and the harsh living conditions. They have to get most of their recourses imported from the other four cities, and there tends to be a higher than ideal level of crime (most of which is simple petty theft). One of the largest reporting firms is located in Survas, and they uncover just about everything people wonder about the water-locked city, and more
