The largest attempt to settle Kelvonostro was Gonlaro. Built between the Cristalmonte river and miles of swampland, the town was settled to harvest insects from the surrounding area and ship them downstream to be used as fertilizer and animal feed. Shifting soil and floodwaters soon took over the settlement, while a black fog of insect swarms descended on what remained above the surface.
Gonlaro’s complete collapse was such a surprise that most residents abandoned their belongings when they evacuated. The mines below were flooded with murky swamp water, closing off a long section of The Loamlink. The armadillo foreman of the project left his personal fortune inside his home, which is now coated in a thick layer of algae and haunted by ghosts of the townsfolk who could not escape.
