About Chronos

[Shea]

There are four different districts within Chronos, named after the directions they are located in from the town square; North, East, South and West. While the town does have electricity, it still also keeps a lot of old traditions, such as using bow and arrow for hunting (meaning no guns), swords for duelling and self-defence and a small, close-knit community.

North Chronos: The park district is exactly that, a park. There’s a picnic area in the large garden, along with a fountain. There is also a small path off to one side of the park that leads to a shrine where people can pray to whichever gods or deities they wish.

East Chronos: Also known as the entertainment district. It is home to the Mayor’s office and the town’s only inn, along with several game stores and a pub, which occasionally holds parties for those of age. The current game stores include an archery shooting range, an arcade and a mirror maze. There is also a ‘jam centre’ which both teaches and promotes musical talents.

South Chronos: The residential district, like its names suggests, is where the townspeople live. Most people who own stores live in homes built into the backs of them, but everyone else lives here. There is no real low class or high class in Chronos, everyone more or less has the same sized home as each other. All the homes are one or two story cottage-like buildings, depending on how many members of a family live together.

West Chronos: The business district of Chronos, where everyone goes for their regular shopping needs. There is a general store, a trading post, a toy store and a second hand store. West Chronos is also home to the post office, bank and a self-defence & well-being centre.

Town square: The town square is in the centre of Chronos and is home to all the town’s celebrations, ranging from markets to festivals for holidays. There is a clock in the town square that is often used as a meeting place for friends and lovers. The markets bring items not found within Chronos in for people to buy, without the need for people to travel out of town to locate the items. Markets sell rare food items, a wider range of clothing and other items made outside Chronos. The markets and festivals mean the townspeople of Chronos have a chance to meet those who live far away so the square becomes the busiest place in town on market or festival days.
