THE NEW CITY OF TENTUUM
(italiansim)
While I was working at the newspaper office in the city of Solarii (varn) I received a message from my friend Lady Roberta, also originally from my tribe (Italian zone), telling me that a new city had been built, and that many of our tribe were flowing there.
I was intrigued by that message, Roberta had sent it so it was definitely something interesting, so I decided to travel to reach her,
Once I reached the new Tentum, I crossed the gate and found myself in front of a clean and tidy city with its well-marked streets and small but well-built buildings. The builder has done a good job even if it is still in the process of being completed.
I was welcomed with all the honors and they offered me the chance to live and work here. I said I wanted to look around and decide whether to open a new newspaper office and work as a magistrate.
I put below a short history of the new city of Tentum
- On the windswept shores of Thassa, where once crumbling walls and silent streets bore witness to ruin, today Tentium rises again, a proud and reborn city.
Its history is marked by fire and sword: conquered by sword and courage, it is now reborn under the proud shadow of Ubar Alexander Lusingar. He is spoken of with fear and admiration, for he was once a pirate, feared across the seas as an unstoppable predator, commander of the flagship Morrigan, whose banner was synonymous with conquest. Many still remember the terror of his arrival, when the wind blew, swelling the black sails and the clang of weapons heralded defeat.
Yet Alexander was not content to plunder the seas and coasts. His destiny was not that of a mere raider, but of a builder. Once Tentium was taken, he saw it not as prey, but as a legacy. The city, shattered by wars and internal strife, became his oath: to rebuild it, fortify it, restore its glory.
Under her umbarat, Tentium flourished. Its squares filled with voices and color: merchants selling spices, fine fabrics, expertly crafted weapons, and loot from the trade routes that still bear the Morrigan's mark. The once-deserted alleys now resound with music and haggling, and the central market has become a beating heart of commerce and power.
Aleksander is not alone in his quest. At his side is Ramla, his companion in spirit and life, guardian of the flame that burns in the heart of Ubar. Along with all her children and her most trusted followers, she embodies the city's future: a dynasty that blends the blood of sea and land, and which promises to keep the flame of Tentium alive for centuries to come.
Tentium today is not just a city. It is a symbol. A place that speaks of rebirth, ambition, and will. Where others saw ruins, Aleksander saw possibility. Where others clenched their fists around fleeting spoils, he planted roots.
And when the sun sets behind the walls of Tentium, and the light slips over the steel of the towers and the sea that laps its ports, a truth that has now become legend is whispered: that Aleksander Lusingar is no longer just the pirate of the Morrigan, but the Ubar who gave a new heart to the city that time wanted dead.
Tentium lives. And in its breath you can feel the sea, the iron, and the fire of those who have never stopped fighting.
Finally, the city's gates are open to all who wish to experience and share this city, to pave the way for their own destiny.
Tentium awaits you!
