Originally known as River Crossing (sometimes Old Crossing), it was a large village at the mouth of the [[Oxenwaithe River]] and [[Segoltha River]] where it runs into [[Segoltha Bay]] and the [[Reshal Sea]]. It acted as a regular shipping point for moving goods across the Segoltha River into the southern half of [[Zoluren]], up the river to [[Ain Ghazal]], or to numerous ports on the Reshal Sea. |

It gained new life when it was refounded in 230 BL as simply The Crossing, supposedly by [[Lanival]] himself.

With its destruction, the provincial government of Zoluren became centered solely in The Crossing and the city boomed to its current size and dominance. |

History

It acted as a regular shipping point for moving goods across the Segoltha River into the southern half of Zoluren, up the river to Ain Ghazal, or to numerous ports on the Reshal Sea.
It gained new life when it was refounded in 230 BL as simply The Crossing, supposedly by Lanival himself. However, it did not really bloom into the central city of Zoluren until 277 AV when the Greater Fist of Heaven erupted, destroying the city of Darkstone. With its destruction, the provincial government of Zoluren became centered solely in The Crossing and the city boomed to its current size and dominance.
