History
The city area, on the edge of what used to be a water-filled bay, has been destroyed and rebuilt several times.
Over a century ago, the previous city of Dagmar had been mostly destroyed by a massive earthquake and aftershocks. Until Dread Gitromos, the event had been remembered as the deadliest earthquake in the history of Vaustille-Kalos, with a death toll in the thousands and destruction of over 80% of the city.
About a quarter of a century ago, Dagmar was then partially destroyed by fire and civilian unrest of the previous government. The name was changed, and from the ashes arose the current system of a community-run volunteer council which has survived initial scrutiny and thrived to make Salvaernia a model city.
The latest rebuild was following the devastation resulting from the worldwide Dread Gitromos incident. It was at this time that the bay drained as ocean waters retreated. The new settlement of Water's Edge was built close to the new shoreline to continue Salvaernia's previous role as a harbor and shipyard for commerce and tourism by water, with the realization and readiness that they may need to pack up and move if the World Dragons are able to restore ocean levels.
