>>21399563>>21269409I'm back to flesh out the /∞/ ports and road based on what was talked about. I did a slight modification of the /∞/ road proposal to straighten it out and put it slightly further way from the Temple of Risu.
>Previous proposals and information.https://rentry.org/8qp9xhttps://rentry.org/4xm6mCurrent proposal and lore
>The Port Town of Demeter∞'s port town on the Northeast coast of Risu, it is comprised of shipping docks, a garrison and a small shipyard designed to repair and maintain ships, but not build new ones. Demeter was built as part of a joint agreement with Risu and to ferry supplies and equipment through Risu via Hecate's Path to Ceres from ∞, and vice versa. Due to its closer proximity to the ∞ mainland, Demeter doesn't need to be as self sufficient as Ceres, however it can sustain itself if the supply chain is disrupted. Demeter is mainly used as a way point for moving goods received from Ceres to ∞ and for traders to resupply if they are traveling along the eastern coast of the Holo continent.
Demeter was built using supplies that were transported from ∞, and some materials from Risu itself under the agreement that Risu can also use the port town for their own business.
Demeter's garrison is comprised of ships from ∞ (Both steam and sailing ships) and battalion of ∞ soldiers to protect the port town from pirates, schizos or belligerent nations. Due to its relatively close proximity to Risu town of Kenkerto, the Demeter garrison can also be deployed to defend Kenkerto or any Risu allies in the area.
There was a plan to try and move an ironclad to Demter to further shore up defense of its ports. However this was scrapped after the ironcald started to take on water while on open ocean and nearly sank, forcing it to return to ∞.

The area where Hecate's Path was built was all scouted in advance with Risu's approval, specifically for any region that required trees to be cut because of how they are considered sacred in Risu.
Due to its length, there are multiple stations along Hecate's Path (Not marked) to act as rest/repair stops.
Hecate's Path was built with both ∞ and /meat/ manpower and construction starting at each coast, moving inward into the country until they met to create a single path through the country.
The path itself is usually only dirt, however in areas where the ground is boggy, wood or stone is integrated into the road to keep convoys from getting stuck.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4llSCsYDA3Q>The Port City of Ceres.The Port City of Ceres is located on the southern portion of Risu and is the main trading hub for ∞ on the Central Ocean [name pending] and the main base of operations for ∞'s Central Fleet. It was established as part of a joint agreement with Risu along with Demeter and Hecate's path.
Ceres consists of the port city, for trading, a garrison to protect the city from pirates, schizos or belligerent nations and shipyards to maintain and build new ship.
Ceres is much larger than it's sister port Demeter because it's designed to be a trading hub on the Central Ocean among Hololive and Independent countries within the area. It's also a port to help facilitate commerce among the winder world for Risu. As a result, Ceres has a thriving city of merchants and dock/ship workers, along with various professions required to maintain the city.
Ceres is protected by the ∞ Central Fleet and a division of ∞ soldiers, with the city asking as the GHQ for ∞'s operations on the Hololive Continent. Like how Demeter defends Kenkerto, Ceres's forces can deploy to defend Sabatangan.
Any goods destined to ∞ from trading in the area, would go through Ceres, then Hecate's Path, onto Demeter, and finally to ∞ itself.
The City was built using supplies brought in from the Central Fleet and Risu, where again as part of the alliance, Risu is given access to use the port city for their own business.
