Detlas

Once a small farm village that was overrun by Corruption during the war, the villagers lent a hand to help rebuild Detlas, turning it into the capital city of the province to this day. With an airship system connecting it to the whole world, the city is the central hub for merchants and trading, as well as a gathering point for adventurers of all kinds. The city is known for its export of goods from all around the province including gold, emeralds, Nemract whiskey, and more.

Citizens of Detlas

Society

Detlas has a diverse population with humans and villagers from different backgrounds gathering within the city due to the airship system and being in the center of the province. Humans all around Wynn province also use Detlas as a gathering point due to being in the center of the province.

Having an airship system allows Detlas to have connections across the world like Gavel province, Corkus Island, and smaller islands like Mage Island. Thanks to this merchants from across the world can gather in Detlas to sell their goods and also export Wynn province’s goods out in the world.

Culture

Being populated by different people with different backgrounds and origins, Detlas turns out to be a mix of different cultures, with the main ones being Gavelian and Wynn itself. Even the food itself is heavily influenced by Gavelian, rather than being simple and mundane it is flavored with spices and herbs from across the province.

Detlas is also known to be the main location where festivals of different kinds take place, such as Festivals of Blizzard, Hero, Spirit, or Bonfire. Many people from across the province would gather to take part in the festival for experience, food, show, games, and other things that each festival offers.

Military

Having access to different technologies and magics causes the military of Detlas to be very diverse and versatile. Guards and their elite counterparts are stationed within the city, guarding every entrance with guard golems and watchmen scouting outside the walls for any signs of approaching hordes. The current army is being led by General Aegis.

Units

Besides the standard guard with their armor made of leather and chainmail, elite guards are stationed within the city walls to guard Detlas. Their armor is made from the highest quality material, which gives them the unique blue color they are known for.

Detlas also utilize mages within their ranks. Battle mages come in many forms of elemental magic to perform their various tasks. With a good connection to Gavel, the mages of Detlas have access to more powerful spells and magical artifacts through trades. Some of the battle mages were even educated within Grookwarts school from the Mage island when they were young.

Watchmen can be found outside of the city, mostly between Roots Of Corruption and Detlas. They are stationed within the remnants of the defense line that has been destroyed long ago.

Elemental Magics

While using standard weapons like spears, daggers, bows, and crossbows. Detlas is also known for its utilization of magic for warfare with their battle mage due to their connection to Gavel providence and Mage Island through the airship system. Elemental magics are a commonly known type of magic within Detlas.

Elemental magics branch out into different elements like Earth, Fire, Air, and Thunder with their unique properties. Elemental magics are the most common magic throughout the world even creatures of the world have innate magicality with different levels and can adapt to specific types of elements. Humans prove to have a decent level of innate magicality of all elements making them very versatile and able to utilize all 4 different types of elemental magics.

Guard Golems

While originating from Gavel province, it’s worth mentioning them here with how much they are important to the Wynn province. Guard golems are constructs introduced by the villagers to the people of Wynn to strengthen their military and can be seen as a part of every settlement’s defense/military

They are commonly used to guard the entrances of settlements and other areas of importance. Their iron armor can withstand the hordes while decimating them with their powerful arms, capable of sending a corrupted flying. They also can be used as heavy infantry to shield other troops as they march forward on the offense, but due to their low mobility and slow response to commands they can be difficult to use in the battlefield.

Their creation and more important details can be discussed in Gavel province entries.

I would be lying if I said Detlas is not one of my favorite settlements to visit. A collaboration between two races to rebuild a mere village into a central town that still stands defiant, despite being near the Roots of Corruption, the very thing that brought this providence to ruin. It makes me wonder what could have been created if all races were united and created something. Not that I could imagine us to be part of it, we are long gone.

Sorrow aside, the festival itself is also part of the reason I visit it. While I may not partake in its main event, it is still an experience worth visiting and watching the culture up close.
