Overview

(Picture of Location)

As Prontera's population started swelling, overpopulation became a concern for its citizens. Watcing space become more limited and a need for increased defense grow, officials decided to build the satellite town Izlude. It would help bolster the city's defenses and provide its citizens more room to grow. The Swordsman association, once within the city's walls, relocated itself to Izlude once the town was established. Many citizens moved and the town began to flourish. Its strategic location gave Prontera access to a port, increasing possibilities for trade and transportation. Since then, various new features have been added to the town, including the Izlude Arena, the Royal Criatura Academy, and the airship dock.
