Kais Kogong in April 2021, taken by Zeddopotamus

Overview

Kais Kogong is a harbor town on the southernmost continent of Alathra, and the capital of Kogongu. It was founded by Vasya on April 4th, 2021. Kais Kogong sits at the mouth Morgana Bay. Notable inhabitants include Vasya, a druid and priestess of the old forest gods and Hermit Hargreevs.

History

Founding

Following the pre-server events chronicled in the Kaido, Vasya went in to hiding for a number of years, establishing the first house of Kais Kogong as well as the original holy site.

Hargreevs first came to the settlement of Kais Kogong while she was under contract by Grandpa_boob to deliver the virtue rhetoric to new cities and towns in hopes of rallying them under the Lothridge cause. Vasya, at the time the only inhabitant, was not impressed, and introduce Hargreevs to Naist philosophies, teaching her meditation practices at the holy site. The two had several conversations discussing the ultimate goals of existence, with Vasya refuting Lothridge's ideals of power.

The settlement eventually attracted the attention of Game_Glider_SKG, who joined it the first time he came onto the server. Hargreevs joined soon after. The three of them envisioned a city that would be a hub not for warriors and conquerors, but for scholars, philosophers, and artists. The town began expanding as construction of the Great Library of Kais Kogong began.

Early Expansion

As the town expanded, several new structures were added, including the Singing Squid inn, as well as Game Glider and Hargreev's houses. New houses were created to house the nether portal and sugarcane, and the library started being built across the river. Plans were made for a council building, but were later abandoned, with the non-hierarchical structure of the city taking precedence. The leaders of the town instead meet at the back table of the inn.

The Tree

On April 9th, a strange custom tree was placed behind Kais Kogong. Its roots went down to bedrock and it sat in a pool of water surrounded by infested stone brick. The grass around the tree is noticeably discolored and it has a beehive, as well as several honey blocks. The inhabitants of the town believed there to be an artifact nearby, but none were discovered.

The strange tree

The Library

The library is a large, detailed structure. It houses an iron farm (no longer automatic as per server rules) and a villager trading hall featuring most high level enchantments. As of June 6, 2021 it is not complete, as builds of this scale and detail take a lot of time. The library houses an impressive catalog of books, including all current volumes of the Kaido, the Tavras book of the sun, and the Kren'tir. There are currently over 20 volumes in the library, making it the largest known collection.

Late Expansion

As the library continued to be built, the town was expanding more as well. The church of Naia, built by Hargreevs, became the second largest structure in the town. Vasya added docks to the growing waterfront, and a fish shop was created by Hargreevs, who was now the highest level fisher on the server. A blacksmith shop and mine were also constructed.

Future Plans

A Large terraforming project was undertaken by Vasya on the south end of town in order to create more buildings. Planned structures include a greenhouse, windmills and a bell tower.
