Founding A Home

Founding

At the end of their journey, Ager and Tashi lead their group to the site of what will become the site of Ararholm.

After nearly six months of travel, Ager crested a hill and saw the mesa and the fort where Ager had spent his first year within Maka-Tho.   The fort walls were still mostly intact, and for the first few months everyone lived within their protection. After strengthening the walls, the first structure they built was a small hall for use as a space for festivals or protection from the lightning storms that plagued the area. Luckily, the screaming tower -- whose unsettling nature faded into the background after a few weeks -- gave the new town plenty of warning of an approaching storm.   Over the next few years, the town grew from a collection of wagons and tents huddled within wodden walls to a collection of wood and synth structures. Several farmers and their families set out into the rolling hills, to till and seed the earth to provide food for the growing town.   Eventually, getting tired of calling it by one of a handful of nicknames, the town gathered before sitting down for a festival dinner. They ended up choosing the name Ararholm for their new home.   Far from civilization, their new home had made it through the first few months of its life without running into any issues or problems that would spell doom for the community.
