Dion may seem like a poor town now, but it was once prosperous. The main source of wealth was wheat, which was harvested on the wide plain of Dion. But after the recent war with Gracia, when huge amounts of money were spent on uniforms and provision of large troops, taxes increased sharply. Peasant unrest began to the east of the city, and now Dion is one of the poorest areas in the kingdom due to the fact that grain sales have fallen sharply and the local lord has not found other sources of profit. The local aristocracy left the city long ago: rich people moved to Giran and Aden, and only the poor remained in the city, unable to afford housing elsewhere. Unfortunately, after all these events, groups of monsters began to gather around the city. In the northwestern part of the Cruma Marshes, the Swamp Stakato are positioned. Gnoll partisans expelled from Gracia settled in the northeastern part. Even higher - Enku Orcs, Tumran Cannibals and Delu Lizards are waiting for the slightest opportunity to plunder the village. At night, the Undead creep out from the Execution Lands to the east and terrorize the locals. But the state did not forget about Dion. The fourth platoon of the Black Lion Squad was sent to the city, which swore allegiance to the Ruler of Dion in order to rid these lands of monsters. But as Mercenary Captain Sofia says, the number of monsters was greatly underestimated. Guard Xaber says that many criminals fought on the side of Gracia, and now, after defeating them, most of them remained on these lands. When Gracia suffered a crushing defeat, these bandits deserted and organized bandits. They are said to practice deception and fraud in the dark alleys of Dion, so travelers are advised to be extremely careful. The land around Dion is filled with magical power, and the ruins of the giants in the north of the village have something to do with this.
