Cyanus, often called 'The Town of Many Flowers', is a trade village within the nation of Sakan'to
{{Infobox settlement
| official_name = Cyanus
Line 32:
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

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.
Line 61:
The terrain is flat, with few hills to be found. It's often considered well ground to travel by horse or cart, as long as you dodge cavern entrances. 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 population is from Dalleton & its neighbouring
==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
* The shortening & combining of words. (e.g. Outa = Out of, Dunno = Don't know, Mate = Matey (A term used by those who worked at sea.))
* Phrases referencing the Faithlow of Dallet. (e.g. Cod replacing God, pointing upwards when referring to hell, etc.)
* An odd comfortability with cussing that'd been rubbed off from sailors.
Along with odd dialect, you can often tell that someone's from Cyanus from their tolerance to sweet smells & food. Honey is put in a lot of food, & flowers litter every street corner, so it'd make sense that everyone's well used to sugary things. This, funnily enough, is why The Lily of the Valley stocks more non-alcoholic drinks than alcoholic ones, because everyone wants sweet drinks.
Many people from Cyanus are often a little sheltered, aside obviously from the sailors & traders. This leads to a lot of confusion about events & timelines, as people usually hear the result of telephone games rather than actual fact.
Though Cyanus shares a respect of fish with many other towns in the nation, there's also similar treatment given to bees. They're on the coat of arms, beehives are littered across the picnic area, & the main weapon given to guards in town are curved spears called a Fell Stinger.
