History

Reverly had a very high population around 30 years prior to the virus that wiped out the entire city population in 1986. After the virus eliminated the entire population nature took over the entire city, leaving sidewalk bricks cracked, buildings crumbled and cracked, and trees almost everywhere. Reverly is located in the Mesa Biome southeast of Master city. Reverly used to be a center of businesses in 1986, factory work, fishing, finance, and arts.

Before 1986

Before 1986 Reverly was a city booming with business and tourists. Local shops open around the seawall for tourists and locals to enjoy during the summer season, when most tourists are around Reverly.

Reverly was a huge tourists attraction because of the seawall and the large sewers, in the summer season tourists would flood into Reverly looking for fun and enjoyment. Tourism was one of the main sources of income for the local businesses in Reverly. Reverly had 6 buildings all packed with clothing, food, and goodies at the seawall, and multiple buildings behind those. For the tourists and locals to use for day to day life, in 2018 these buildings are barely standing.

Before 1986 Reverly had a fairly large wheat factory, with over 500 workers. The wheat factory was one of the main business in Reverly, being only a few minutes away from the downtown of Reverly. Reverly also had a subway that people could use for transportation anytime they pleased.

In 2018 Reverly is almost completely destroyed with very little of any building remaining. Around 30 years ago when the virus wiped out the entire population of Reverly, Reverly had no one to take care of the buildings

so nature took over the entire city leaving vines, trees, and rocks all over the city. Reverly is now a safety hazard for anyone which explains why no one lives in Reverly anymore. Reverly roads in 2018 are covered in dead bushes and grass and impossible to drive on. Along with the sidewalks being broken upon repair, covered in cracks, moss, and pebbles. Any life in Reverly has not been spotted in 30 years this trend will most likely consist. Skeletons of people are often found in the roads and sidewalks of Reverly the likelihood of these people dying of the virus in the road is highly unlikely, it has been said that they were dropped there to keep the virus away from the people who had not yet caught the virus.

Language

The main language in Revelry is English, some people do speak French but the main language is English only 0.4% of the population before 1984 reported French being the language spoken most in their home. In the public signs, stores, and anything with writing is in English sometimes with a French translation under the English.

Transportation

Revery has a subway along with roads and sidewalks for transportation. Cars and the subway are the main modes of transportation in Reverly. The subway was used quite often before 1984, having over 300 passengers daily. The subway would go all the way to the other side of the city to the wheat factory until that part of the subway got shut down. The road was used for cars and bikes. The sidewalk was used for pedestrians.

Sewers

Reverly has a large sewer system, it is contaminated and badly polluted now but was a large tourist attraction when the city was still active. Tourists enjoyed taking tours of the sewers. It was local legend that a huge sea monster (See Lore) may have lived in the sewers or swam through them, this was the reason the sewers were so popular among the tourists.

Name

The name of Reverly came from the song Neck Deep - Can't Kick Up The Roots. The definition of Revelry states lively and noisy festivities, especially when these involve drinking a large amount of alcohol.

Lore

It was a local legend that a huge red, blue, pink, and green sea monster spanning over 10 km would lurk around the seawall late at night looking for prey. This myth was started when local children would trick tourists into thinking a huge monster was living in the waters of Reverly. This monster had many different names, but was never given an official name. Some called it Ecthelion, Poseidon, or Octopian. People had claimed to see this monster describing it being over 10 km long with a long scaly body and emerald green eyes. It was also said that this beast swam around the sewers as well. Local children would tell tourists that in the dark of night this beast would watch and wait for a lone sole walking on the seawall, then the huge beast would pounce upon them picking them up into the air above the water, then devouring them alive despite their efforts to get away. This monster was said to have razor sharp teeth spanning over 10cm and a pink tongue covered in teeth and claws. The monster had insanely sharp plates on its back and tale. It was very commonly believed that this monster could control the weather often creating storms and restless waters, people believed that the beast would create storms when he was hungry or angry. The fictional monster had scared so many tourists that in the late hours of the night nobody could be seen anywhere in sight of the waters or the sewers for the fear of being attacked or eaten by the beast was too great.
