Editing Nation of Zell (section)

== Gressus ==
Once only a small fort, Gressus has grown from its meager beginnings. Clover views Gressus as vital to projecting its power along the border with [[Kovorov|Kovorov.]] If ever Zell were to try and invade across the mountains, the first soldiers across would be the Gressus garrison. But for now, most of Gressus is content to hunt, farm, and live at the edge of Clover’s control.

==== Symbol of Zell ====
Zell has poured hundreds of thousands of gold pieces into Gressus to build the city. With the growing population center, Zell hopes to be able to remind local villages and hamlets of their allegiance to Clover. And, if that fails, the Gressus garrison is never far away.

==== Fort Gressus ====
There is nothing unique about fort Gressus. It holds the standard Zell division comfortably in its confines two miles outside Gressus’ city limits. However, the makeup of the fort is unique. Gressus contains a high number of cavalry, ultus regulars, fidissaries, and no Paedoran soldiers. The army is built to be highly mobile. On training exercises, it has been tested that the Gressus garrison can move one-hundred miles in two days at full strength.

==== Pelt Hunters ====
Those people who do not work the shops, furnaces, or taverns in Gressus take up life as a hunter. The fox, raccoon, shale beast, and cougar hides out on the frontier are highly prized in places like Caer Ortus. Hunters are able to make a decent living by selling their pelts to merchants traveling to Avaleer Trail.
