Cyanus, often called 'The Town of Many Flowers', is a developing trade village within the nation of Sakan'to over on the path between many different towns. Its widely regarded as a relaxing place to morekeep oryour less chillmind from the chaos of the faraway world. It lingers close to an old ruin & to a river leading up totowards Sakan'to'sthe capital of Dalleton. (This is currently an incomplete page, as drawings & screenshots of the town are still needed as well as a more in-depth section on the town's religious history.)
==History==
===Pre-Settlement===
Before the settlement of Cyanus, it was just a random flower field by the large river crossing near places like Dalleton & Oakland. It had nothing more than random field life, an odd amount of bees, & a looming ruin in the far distance. Said ruin was once home to a town of its own, but no one in Cyanus nowadays recognises it for anything other than a dead zone of mobs & ever-churning water. The flowers & flowering trees always smelled sugary, almost to a sickly level. This likely being the reason why no one settled in it until traders ended up in a jam there.
===Settlement===
Cyanus' settlement came from a roadblock situation in a trade route passing the field. People were stuck for several months until just deciding to settle down in the field, building as they went along. This style of building is likely why there's a clear divide between the houses up front & the houses up back. As the days went along, the people got access to much fancier materials than cobble & wood. Though people made picnics for recreation all over Cyanus on its first few months, they eventually got the tavern & with it, a sense of kinship & order through partying along. Everyone was either hyperactive or plain lazy & there wasn't much in-between, apart from their ever-anxious mayor.

====== The Cyanus Art Guild ======
Formed early on into the town's construction, the Cyanus Art Guild is the most prominent trade hub in the whole town. Members are mostly artists, builders, & terraformers all from the town, & are often responsible for a litter of builds & works all across Alathra. The levels of teamwork in the group are often rag-tag at best, & pretty flaky at worst, but all in all, they'll eventually get the job done. Sometimes Alathran gossip starts from the group, as they're prone to lying about wild events on the job for fun...

==Geography==
Cyanus is located in the continent of Prospit, within the nation of Sakan'to. The environment is a plain close to both the Toburne River & The Cirobian Canals (Names may be spelt wrong). There's boat-based links to Oakland & Dalleton, as well as road links to EastMelon MesaCrest & Siera. It's location is close to a woodland of birch & dark oak, as well as a small mesa filled with cacti.
===Flora and Fauna===
Flowers, flowers, & more flowers. Cyanus is flooded with clusters of flowers. They come in many colours, shapes, heights, & properties, as well as being a mainstay in the town's naming schemes & materials. People use their dyes for paint, toxins for antivenom/pesticide, & even use them in Alchemy. The cornflower is the symbol of Cyanus, because of a dish made in the region said to give the person who consumed it 'a spring in their step'. There's also a unique small tree that grows in Cyanus, with deep brown trunks & large flowering clusters that grow year round. Some have dubbed them 'Lapis Jacarandas', but a scientific name has yet to be given.
 
Animals in Cyanus consist mainly of livestock & bees. During the Summer, rainforest birds fly into town to try & eat crops, much to the anger of farmers. During winter, foxes like to huddle up in the sides of houses, which is a much more pleasing sight for the townsfolk.
===Terrain===
The terrain is flat, with few hills to be found.

There's also rivers capable of supporting rowboats, kayaks, & small sailboats making rounds from Dalletosh.
===Ethnicity===
Cyanus is extremely multicultural due to the circumstances of the town's creation, with people from all over Prospit & sometimes further. The majority is from Dalleton & its neighbouring reigons, some come from Nixium or Fare-Sesso, some from Arcadian Altanate, & a few from other continents, likely thosecoming whoover hadto avoid worldwide plights.

It often attracts the attention of fey, but some smallish creatures like goblins or kobolds find relatability to defectthe town's often short populace.
==Culture==
Culture is a funny thing in Cyanus. Since most of the people were from Dalleton, they used a character system of writing & speech, that was split in term of formality, proper nouns, etc. But since many of the other tradesmen couldn't understand what they were saying, the main language was decided to be common tongue. Except common tongue was difficult for some to get used to. This culminated in what some called 'Flower's Common Tongue', which is known for having habits of a casual version of the language in Dalleton, while still being in common tongue. Some of the differences are as follows:

===Imports===
Cyanus doesn't really bulk buy from other places much, its pretty self-sufficient. It does often have housing supply assistance from their much bigger cousin town of Dalleton but it doesn't exactly count. Dalletosh provides a few imports over to town.
==Foreign Relations==
Cyanus' foreign relations are usually that of trade, especially services. The mayor can personally rattle off many nations & peoples the Cyanus Art Guild worked with, both successful & unsuccessful. Many Cyanus folk are tolerant to other nations because they came from many nations themselves, but some have a harder time with places that are more restrictive.
