Here i stand the paved paths familiar, as i look in the distance i see a Palace made of fine marble, i see to my left a coliseum, with one large entrance, i see sand on the floor from this massive arena, i turn around and see Port Luskan in the distance with two sturdy wooden walkways bending round the bay linking Solice to Port Luskan, yes indeed i am back in the Solice. I quote a very old Saying " You always go back to where you were happiest" and i have to say Solice is where i was happiest. In the distance i here familiar voices as i listen i reconise the voices of Tay My wife, my three children KW jnr, Kristyne and Tyr. as i listen longer i here the soft voice of Elirien first High Priestess of Solice, also i hear the voice of the first Captain of the Guard of Solice Huw.
My Mind takes me back to the foundation of Solice, we arrived at Port Luskan not knowing the lay of the land, with but a wing and a prayer, from these early beginings the Hamlet of Solice was built with the only material that was about in copius amounts wood, Wood that was salvaged from the numerous amount of wrecked ships and the dead wood of what was to become Drathir, as we set about exploring this new land we found other materials that could be used to build, I remember the first building that was completed in Solice, we called it the town hall, a two storey building the first floor was used to conduct business and doubled as a community building, the second floor we used as living quatres, the next building to go up was the barracks shortly followed by some more living quatres that could be used by anyone that wanted to make Solice there home,as we grew so did Solice the next structure to go up was the ramparts and the Captain of the Solice guard Office and sleeping quatres.
From those humble beginings Solice was born,One day it seemed another Island appeared, i think it was claimed from the sea. after discussions with the other citizens, it was decided that because of the growth of people coming to Solice we needed to expand, work was started on the New town of Solice and so Solice Town was built. i often think back to those days the people they were Solice to name but a few Theldrkis, My Good friend Valender Solices first Arch Mage what was even more surprising was he was a goblin but he showed apptitude yes the humble beginings. I now call out to all ex Solice citizens come home Solice has Returned
