History

Bilta was a generic, unremarkable town before the Age of Industry, then it became a town filled with all kinds of clockwork elements, as the cradle of the Age of Industry. Constant noise, pipes and ticking clocks were on every street, amongst the many factories. This lasted until 1090-1094 Aoc, after which the Disciples of the Collective took the settlement over - betrayed by their own Ruler, Sigmund Apbar.
