Kais Termina (Terminan: Terminia [teɾ'mɪniɑ]) is a trade town located in the Icesteel Province of the Arcadian Altanate and is the Provincal Capital of the Icesteel Province. Before joining Arcadia, Kais Termina served as the refuge of lost 'nomads', where they could find a home and piece together the Mystery of the Landings. The town was originally founded by player goodnoodle808 and acts as the hub of the Icesteel Province, located in the Arcadian Altanate, not far from Midnight Grove, Spadecrown and,now an outpost of Kais Termina, Stormblade's Keep . The mayor, as of writing, is Noodle who originally hailed from his old homeland and gained the title after Kais Kogong joined the Altanate on August 31, 2021. Other notable inhabitants from its past includes the Vice Regulators Specz Arcanes, an ex-nomad, part of the Myster of Landings and originated from the Farlands, and Walrus Man, the heir and owner of Charmont and a promising enriching man in Termina.

History

Founding

Following the pre-server events, Noodle, Specz and Walrus man found each other on an Alathran island. Bewildered of where their location could be, due to the Mystery of Landings.The three recruited others, such as Stormblade , Mr. Shiny and TJInnit. These no-longer nomads donated sweat, blood and tears to construct the foundations of Kais Termina. Although, the work was astonishingly faster and less painful due to Noodle's mysterious building powers. The powers including time-enhancing spells casted by Specz and money coming in from Tyler (Walrus Man) made the start of Kais Termina a breeze. Things would only go up from here though.

The settlement eventually attracted the attention of Pitru Punstraia, who jumped at the thought of uniting it under The Sublime Arcadian Altanate. Arcadians soon agreed and joined under the Treaty of Icesteel.The nation envisioned a city that would be a hub not for warriors and barbarians, but for constructors, sorcerers, and philosophers. The town began expanding as construction of the Elder Plans began.

Early Expansion

The three Historical Elders of the metropolis-including Specz, Noodle and Tyler- designed architectural masterpieces, as their crowded town homes were becoming a little worn. Noodle constructed his presently unnamed Cathedral-Fort, Walrus Man crafted St.Basils Cathedral, and Specz built The Arcane Manor, a castle with the main function of hosting Specz Arcanes magical experiments and his newly-opened Magic School- The Academy. Soon after, the highly respected Stormblade created the towns barracks and military grounds. Loki built the Brew Brothers and a cafè, although his work was more used in the philosophical field, working on languages, anthems and poetry.

The Sugarcane Farm

Meanwhile, Noodle peacefully constructs the biggest sugarcane farm on the server. This was in hopes of economic growth for the highly respected town. The townspeople, however happy, were poor. No one had a stable income and people would run random arons to hold up the magnificent yet monumental and pricey projects. Noodle wanted to change this, and swiftly. With the use of tradesman and the stressful need of sugarcane by Alathrans, they would soon, with a little bit of work and luck, become economically proud.

Accession to Arcadia

The Treaty of Icesteel was planned out by Pitru Punstraia and was immediately accepted by the new Holy Senate of the Sublime Arcadian Altanate. Not only would this boost the economy, the Altanate was so greatly looked upon by the town and forever would be. This would be the best offer accepted by the Terminai people, creating opportunities of wealth, leisure and health.

Future Plans

A Large Military project was undertaken by Stormblade next to St. Basils Cathedral in order to add military strength for Termina. Planned structures are being constructed around the town, The Arcane Manor, St. Basils Cathedral and The Mufijo Cathedral. Stormblade is currently constructing wonderful hills and pointy mountains. Loki adds shops, such as Termania's very own: Brew Brothers, and Icesteel.Co. Selling alcohol, pricey gems, common stone and mysterious runes towards the people of Alathra.

Culture

Before Alathran Settlement

Hundreds of years ago, the Holy land was settled by the advanced tribe: the Termanai Kogongi People, they pitched tents and made dirt mound huts until a hard and massive blizzard forced them to lose contact with their ancestors, the Kogongi People. After a long period of time, they returned to rebuild in the holy land, bringing with them natural magic, agriculture- enriching fields of wheat, and astronomy. Specz was intrigued by the stars and the moon, the way, the proof

Religious Practices

A Naist Holy Site

While religion is not compulsory, Kais Kogong holds strong belief in Naism. The goal of Naism is not power or happiness but rather simply to overcome suffering caused by desire and the ignorance of reality's true nature (impermanence and non-existence of the self). They typically value humility and peace, striving to make the world better in nonviolent ways. Except for Hargreevs, who chooses violence.

They have a large church, although most religious activities take place at the holy site behind Hargreevs' house and at Naia's grave. Vasya regularly practices traditional meditation, while Hargreevs uses fishing as a means of meditation.

Some Naist practitioners choose not to wear diamond or Netherite armour, seeing it as a source of pride and intimidation

The holy sites typically have rock sculptures carved into cones and cylinders.

Although being part of the theocratic Arcadian Altanate, the Altan allows other religions than the state faith of Mufijo to be practiced within the borders of Arcadia, believing people should only convert if they wish to. Thus, Naism is still heavily pravticed in Kais Kogong, although the current mayor Game Glider is a devout member of the Mufijo faith.

Art & Humanities

A concert at the Inn

Kais Kogong is a hub of art and music. They have hosted several art events, including an open mic night and a concert by Sillie_Millie at the Singing Squid. Vasya collected books written by members of the server at the library.

Languages

Kais Termina has a native language that is related to the Kogongi people named Terminan. This language is spoken by the ethnic minority group, Terminai Kogongi. The language has grown apart for Kogongi, developing many more noun and verb cases and having a whole new vocabulary.

Geography

The surrounding area of Kais Kogong was once a plains biome that has since been wiped away by a large earth works project headed by Vasya in order to diversify the geography of the town. The surrounding area is taken up by a dark oak forest, dubbed the "Cotana" forest. A narrow peninsula exists running along the bay to the northeast, towards Wahat Almarjan, and a mountain range to the west, where Bal Duran is.
