History
Vignile has been ruled by the cross family for as long as it has been standing in the emerald coast. First founded as a town in 780 AF it was a notable town, not for the town itself but because of the cross family. Famous for their devotion to uesis and theyr ferocious battle skills. The Cross family fought in great hulking and heavy steel armor and were said to be unbeatable in their time.
The city of Vignile did not become a city until 900 AF, after Rowlind Eremyte came to Morgen Cross and they founded an alliance. Rowlind hired the cross army as his not unlike you would hire a mercenary. Together they made a great name for Rowlind who would go on to become the first High king of Cowenta. Repaying Morgen Cross, he claimed Vignile was the first great city of Cowenta. that would lead the following cities to fall into service and validated Rowlinds claim as high king.
Vignile served the Eremyte family well as the harbor and sea connection to Kingslake for many years until in 3620 AF when Hagan cross betrayed High King Galiad Eremyte. Hagan was the kings right hand in his old age. Galiad was the last of the Eremyte family and was sick and senile. Hagan prophesied that when Galiad would pass a large civil war would take place for the throne. As he saw it Hagan was the kings right hand, and he felt he was the rightful heir to his king. Galiad disagreed. He wanted the highborn great families of cowenta to vote on who should take the crown, that wouldn't come to light until any years later. Furious Hagan cross plotted to Assassinate Galiad. And so he did, claiming the throne and setting an era of Cross Rule which still lasts to this day.
