DURATURAS AETERNITATEM ÆDIFICAVIT

In the year 1130, a boy by the name of Britton was born. Like his father and his fathers before him, Britton was trained as a mason and engineer, proving to be a brilliant architect in the process. By the time Britton was a man, he was already making quite a name for himself in the Guild of Masonry; soon enough becoming master of his own chapter in the City of Praven. In the year 1150, the First War for Rhodok Independence broke out. Though ultimately unsuccessful for the Rhodoks, the war left the City of Praven in dire shape, with collapsed walls, towers, and gatehouses surrounding crumpled structures. The Swadian King feared that the suppressed rebellion would not remain so for long, and he knew Praven could not withstand another siege in its current state. The King employed the help of Praven's Masons' Guild to restore Praven to not only a hospitable city, but also a formidable stronghold. Britton immediately drew up new designs to reinforce Praven's defences while allowing his fellow masons to rebuild the inner workings of the city. By 1159, construction was completed, and Britton's towers stood nearly indestructible, able to withstand even catapult and trebuchet, thus forcing besieging armies to assault using ladders. The King was incredibly pleased with Britton's work, and decided to establish him as a noble in his court, and thus, House Towers was formed.
