A
brief history, present and future of Harbor House
Legend tells of a storm that raged
through the lands, tidal swells sucking away the properties of
fifteen families that lived on the coastland, some hundred years
ago. Yet, the Harbor House, with the exception of some wind
damage, was unscathed. Logic would dictate that it should have
been turned to driftwood, debris and something of lore, but it
wasn't. It withstood. The dwellers of the destroyed homes gathered
their families and took shelter during the storm in the Harbor
House, and when it was over, they were possession-less, but for
the clothing on their backs.
While the tale of these seventy-odd people surviving whereas their
perishing would have been imminent, is but a small footnote in
History, this is the documented beginning of the Harbor House. The
humans that lived through this episode have since passed away, but
the elves who remain, agree upon one odd fact: The structure
appeared weather-beaten and old even then.
A mysterious place, this Harbor House. It has seen its share of
living and dying. It has been a refuge for some, and the end of
the road for others.
Now the town of Keyport in which
Harbor House resides in, has become a place of tourism and where
wanderers visits. The town is on its way to make itself a
city with all its constructions of buildings and residences across
from the House at the mainland. Merchants and shops being
built among these constructions which offers new labor for those
in need. The population continues to rise on a weekly basis
being a town soon to become a city of opportunity.
It is your choice, what this Place becomes to you.
