    Alright began working on the town in the Northwestern corner of the map, I'm kind of running with te idea that it started as a small logging town, however, a church moved into the village and kind of got things a little more organized, as well as brought more trade to the region through it's influences. To this day, the church maintains a large amount of control over the town, with the head clergyman also acting as mayor. lol the story is a little lame at the moment <_< but will have to work on that later.

    Updates:
    - Town added in Northwestern Corner
    - haha some people said the background i was using made the hills look like fungus so added a light color fill on the background make it a greener color.
