Freikor

Freikor is a city located in Southern Vexidan.

History
During the Salian War, Freikor was apart of the Salian Empire. Following Valus Salian's death and defeat, the territory of the Salian Empire was absorbed into the Kingdom of Vennon. After the death of Josef Saur, the power of the Kingdom drastically fell and many territories in the east seceded and formed the Vexen Confederation.

In 970, Jere Kempe was born in Freikor. He would go on to be one of the most influential military generals during the Legionary War. Following the Salian Legion adopting a military economy, the depressed economy of Freikor experienced a massive period of economic success as many military factories and mines were opened.

During the Legionary War, Freikor was a strategic city for the Legion. It had the largest mining industry in all of Vexidan. Following the Battle of  , and death of Rovoc Salian, the Legion went into disarray. One of the remaining commanders of the Legion, Jere Kempe gathered available remnants of the army to further resist the. He called the remaining forces loyal to him the Legionary Resistance, but more commonly referred as the "LS" for short. The LS were badly supplied and undermanned to face the advancing enemy forces. The vast majority of his troops were young conscripts with poor morale. Many of his soldiers deserted and surrendered to the enemy. Kempe's plan to counter-attack and push enemies out of Vexidan crumbled before it even started. Severe manpower and supply constraints, troop dissertations, poor communication, and non-existent local support made Kempe's plan a fantasy. Kempe's unorganized forces were quickly pushed back to Freikor, and were under siege by the enemies for a month. Kempe was able to lead his forces to defend the city from large number of forces until the lines broke in the end of February. After the enemy began capturing the city, Kempe attempted to flee under disguise as a civilian but was stopped by his own second-in-command,.
