Sartez (History)

Located northwest of Lithmore City, past Wilhelm, the town of Sartez is the focal point for the mines which surround it.

Over time, the rich veins of ore which are available in the nearby mountains contributed to the slow but steady growth of the town from a tiny village into a proper settlement with many kinds of amenities. Sartez's population and wealth both expanded as mining proved increasingly popular.

However, a fire spread out of control in 351 SC and burnt down nearly the whole city, killing many of its citizens and rendering the area largely uninhabitable. The damage was such that Sartez was not resettled until 356 SC, despite its mineral wealth; funding from the Crown was required for its renovation.

For now, Sartez is but a shadow of its former self, the mines operational but the population greatly reduced. It is slowly growing again in the wake of resettlement, but only time will tell if it becomes a thriving town again.
