Storyline: Bouganville

This is Bouganville. It's the main hub for The Residence of Old Riddles. It's a place crafted from scratch to be a big, central part of the game. It's a "living" place with lots of people walking the streets, doing whatever they do, but at the same time it's a lonely place where only you seem to be sane. 

Bouganville was a small city once upon a time with most people leaving the place due to poorness and high criminality. A time later Bouganville was banned from the kingdom it had been a part of for centuries, Terrano. The city got its own king, who had the belief that Bouganville could be the leading city of the world, but only if we could give it a shot. He had a plan for all of this, and step by step he and his men started to build up the city to not only its former glory but to a even bigger scale.

However, fate had begged to differ and on the king's 50:th birthday a comet striked down towards Bouganville and destroyed the castle and everything within. Only the Prince, his best friend and some soldiers had survived. The Prince intended to continue his father's plan, but as his grief over his parents' death seized him, it would take lots of time.

When your game begins, the slightly weird king is trying to get people into Bouganville. He sends out his men into the world to put up flyers teasing the people around with promises that eternal wealth awaits them in Bouganville. Adventurous as you are, you set out on a quest to find Bouganville, explore the city and uncover the secrets and mysteries of this offer. Is the promises about Bouganville true, or another scam to get people on their knees?
