La Cueva

La Cueva was founded in June of 2022 by the desire to pursue excellence in brewery, writing and trade. It has soon risen to the complexity of its plans and is currently under heavy development. The Resort Island is tailored to your heart's most wished desires, bathing in the salty and cold waters of Illyria and basking in the sun.

=History= Although it is a new Island, its history and culture are rich and continue to grow rapidly.

The First Days
The town of Illyria was in search of a great brewer. Fuad then found Lez and talked him into moving his small brewery to the fresh lands of Illyria and he accepted, moving into the Island of Illyria.

At first, Lez_ spent a few nights on the Island, scouting the terrain before coming up with a building plan for the Island.

Early Developments


It started from brewery carved into the mountain, continuing to growing into a full-blown entertainment complex. La Cueva has grown its farming capabilities, its housing areas (with in-mountain apartments) and its brewing necessaries in farming. In search of rare recipes, the libraries of all other cities were scouted and soon Illyria's Master Brewer learned and felt the need to also teach others and so Illyria Library was founded, on the Island of La Cueva, with access from the main dock.

Culture and Research


Illyria Library is the place to go if you are in search of culture and information. With books from all categories, you will sure find something to read in its dedicated places. Its wide variety of lectures contains both instructional books as well as novels, poems, songs, fiction, fanfics and many many more for you to discover in a visit.

The library now has over 100 books, from which 5 original works and the rest copies of other great works of UV.

All writers and librarians are welcomed on our Island and so they benefit from a wide variety of discounts on all goods and services. If you want your work show in the library, please contact Lez_.

Economy
Illyria's economy is one of the strongest and is built on trade and entertainment services. The island hosts The Commercial Bank of Illyria and benefits greatly from its services, the local economy having a strong and constant influx of people coming and trading here. Being the capital of brewing and having a constant influx on tourists boosts the local businesses, making it the best place to experience luxury and culture.

The gambling sector also bring is a good flow of diamonds, all the taxes from Feeling Lucky Inc. being fully redirected towards research and development in both brewing and overall culture and writing.

Many businesses operate in La Cueva, due to its development, from both the Island itself, such as Liquor Emporium or La Cueva Chronicles
