High Ashina

High Ashina was formed by KnightOfNotch on November 19th, 2020. It is the capital of Ashina.

Founding
While traveling the world he had found a place where he knew he'd take his home and settle. After establishing his home, in the later months he came across the lone merchant ImmaNotScope. He who offered gold and precious gems in exchange for safe haven and hospitality had been accepted in after being on the run from bandits and pillagers. No regular thief could breach the mountains as they had the terrain on their side. High Ashina was in need of help around this time as the terrain in the mountains are hard to navigate and difficult for growing crops. In that time came the traveling farmer and carpenter bassyalla35 and XxGhostReconxX2 who offered up their methods. Proper building methods to work around the tall trees and high cliffs are now used along with proper platform basing for structures are now used as well as readjusted methods of farming. Shortly after the arrival of ImmaNotScope, XxGhostReconxX2 and bassyalla35 was an interesting character who brought pollination! Well known in present day as Senator Shepsicle he who had brought bees and many other animals in pairs of two offering help with the growing town. To this day there is never a shortage of food for all citizens and beyond that reaching as well to the rest of Ashina as a nation, for High Ashina is its capital.

The town was erected on the mountain range on the north-eastern most continent of the Alathra.

Sacred Ground
"Ashina is sacred land. War or not. We fight in the field." -King Shepsicle, May 7, 2021

The city of High Ashina is considered sacred ground by its inhabitants, having never been touched by an invading army. As such, any violence is prohibited within the city walls, and any physical disputes, from a petty scuffle to a full-scale war, must be settled outside. As an example, in the Ashina-Lothridge War, the Ashina-led coalition elected to leave the relatively defensible city walls and instead occupied the profane Cum Zone, a hastily-erected enclosure riddled with engineering and architectural flaws. The citizens of Ashina take this precept extremely seriously, expelling anyone who dares to break it.
