Vester

The town of Vester is the seat of the ruling Duke of the Vester region in the Empire of Eskarya.

History
Vester was a ruined village of Elysia, which upon discovery by the Adventurer's Guild of Eskarya, with help from fellow adventurers from Eskarya who had found the settlement.

They quickly found the village over-run with aberrations, webbed fingers and transculent flesh of monsters crawled out from a well in the centre of the village. Upon their slaying, they ventured into the well to find an Aboleth and his creations awaiting.

With its minions defeated and the Aboleth banished, Vester was seemingly safe once more and Rudy and his friends sought to rebuilt the settlement away from the oppression, bureaucracy and feudalism of the Empire of Eskarya.

Hidden within the forest, some citizens of Eskarya had begun construction within the secret settlement. But as the forces of The Demon Lords marched south from the Vester Hills, all life in Vester was once again wiped clean of civilization.

Dawn of Tosima
In 5EF, the Village of Vester was restored once more following the Demon's destruction of the land and its inhabitants of Empire castaways. A young noble, Engelbrecht Norley, from the Sword Coast would be named as the Duke of the Vester region and all the lands witin its territories, charged with the defence of both forest and hills with the aid and support from Ezofield and its citizens.

A modest militia would grow in the village, and with it the population slowly for surely grew over time until a a sizeable town would flourish. With its proximity to both the hills and forests, where fungus, glora and array of insectoids and other wildlife lived, the town would become established for its trade in medicine and apothecarial services.

As one of the largest regions in the Empire of Eskarya, the Dukedom of Vester would eventually command a significant force of strength and were taked with the defence of the northern territories if Badengatt and its defences were every compromised.
