Etymology
The exact etymology behind Fort-Anfree is unknown, but scholars and anthropologists have proposed numerous theories as to the naming behind the city founded in 1134. The most widely accepted theory is that Fort-Anfree was named after the legendary Knight Avanfree, a figure originating from ancient fables and mythology who, in a fabled battle and as a heroic final act, deposed of the Challengers threatening the continent of Stratea. The settlement itself was founded as a fortress and military base far from TBD's capital city of TBD, and as such the relationship with Knight Avanfree might've symbolized perseverance in the face of insurmountable odds.
