Ryvenport

Ryvenport''' is the name of a large port city on the southern coast of the continent of Radorah and the Kingdom of Auberdor. Ryvenport is notably the largest port in Radorah and roughly the continent's second largest city. While the permanent population of the city lacks in comparison, the vast number of inns, taverns, and hotels houses several travelers and sailors, giving the town a very large population of diverse origins at any given time.'''

Settlement
After the original settlers landed in what is presently known as Stead Pointe and Rora's Rock around the year of 636, very few permanent settlements were erected. Most of the travelers, unable to farm the harsh, rocky terrain of the south-west, began to migrate north and east, eventually establishing small camps that eventually grew into towns or cities.

During the first few days of the frozen season of 719, Raykuss Ryven, a leader of a large farming and crafting clan, fled from the northern Nalmorian mountains in hopes of escaping lethally cold temperatures. Eventually reaching the southern coast, the clan decided to settle in what is known today as Ryvenport due to the security provided by the surrounding rivers on all three sides, and the sea on the fourth. Along with this, the clan found it a very convenient location for shipping out their trading goods with their expertly crafted boats, which they soon began to sell from their settlement. After demand grew and others began to row in to the settlement in boats, a small harbor was built and word of mouth soon began to refer to this settlement and its harbor as Ryven's Port, which would eventually be shortened to Ryvenport.

Incorporation
Ryvenport was incorporated officially as a town in year 728. While there was no system of established nobility at the time, Raykuss Ryven took on a title similar to what would be an Earl today.With his wife, whose name has never been found on record, Raykuss began to farm a large supply of the area's produce, heavily focusing on tobacco and wheat, which were two highly demanded and scarecly supplied crops. With the comfort of the income gained through the security in his farms, Ryvenport soon became a large town, welcoming more and more docks and eventually establishing itself as a busy port, welcoming vast amounts of trade from Bryuland, Wherü ndia, and other economic powers.
