City Centre

Attractions and Landmarks

Néktōn Zoo

Néktōn Zoo, located on an entire island in the center of Hergom's capital, is one of the largest zoos in Gotha. Unlike traditional human zoos, which focus on preservation and education, Wolgos zoos prioritize entertainment and direct interaction between animals and patrons. Néktōn Zoo epitomizes this approach, with animal blood sports, hunting, and intense spectacles forming the core of its attractions.

The zoo is particularly renowned for its hunting ranges, where visitors can engage in the pursuit of fast-breeding animals such as goats, boars, and gazelles. Patrons are equipped with tools like bows, hammers, and javelins to hunt these animals, creating an immersive and primal experience. Trap pits offer another layer of interaction, allowing visitors to design their own traps to catch smaller creatures like rats, rabbits, ferrets, and birds, adding a strategic element to their hunting activities.

Primates, closely related to both humans and Wolgos, play a central role in the zoo’s entertainment offerings. These animals are made to participate in spectacles ranging from mock battles and boxing matches to comedic performances. For those seeking more intense entertainment, fast-breeding monkeys are pitted against each other in violent confrontations, with food rewards used to encourage aggression.

The zoo also features large mammals such as aurochs, which are showcased in fighting rings where they battle each other or face ceremonial execution by trained Wolgos entertainers. These events highlight the strength and ferocity of the animals. Similarly, wolves, dogs, tigers, and lions are used in combat pits, where patrons can observe and place bets on the outcomes of these bloody encounters.

Birds and insects are integral to the zoo's hands-on activities, particularly for children. Young visitors are encouraged to trap and kill birds, pluck their feathers, or stuff them as souvenirs. Insects are also popular, with patrons, especially children, creating their own curiosity boxes from the creatures they capture.

In addition to these spectacles, the zoo offers an educational petting zoo where children can interact with smaller animals like rabbits, rats, chicks, piglets, and lambs. However, this experience goes beyond mere interaction, allowing children to kill and dissect the animals. The zoo also provides the option for patrons to have the animals they kill cooked and served in its restaurants, adding a culinary aspect to the visit. For those who participate in the hunting ranges, services are available to preserve pelts or mount trophies.

Historically, Néktōn Zoo featured exhibits of what the Wolgos considered "exotic" humans, who were made to perform for the entertainment of patrons. Following Hergom's participation in the ARAIH treaty, these exhibits were replaced with hired actors dressed in costumes from their homelands, who interact with visitors and pose for pictures. Human fights remain a popular attraction, now performed by hired sportsmen trained to deliver dramatic, mock gore. Additionally, fighting pits featuring nude female actresses have become a favored spectacle among male Wolgos patrons.

The zoo’s extensive collection of animals, sourced from across Gotha, is often obtained through illicit means due to strained relations with the animals' native regions. Hergom is believed to utilize its underworld connections to poach and transport these animals. To ensure a steady supply for hunting and blood sports, the city operates breeding ranches for large cats, mammals, birds, and primates, making the spectacles both sustainable and accessible to a wide range of patrons.

Dhol'monon Dam

Dhol'monon Dam is not only the largest and oldest structure in the city but also the very reason for its existence. The city originally grew out of the construction activity surrounding the dam and the industries that later flourished, taking full advantage of the electricity the dam produced. Over the years, Dhol'monon Dam has remained a vital part of the city's infrastructure, while also becoming a historic and iconic landmark.

The architecture of the dam has been enhanced over time to emphasize its grandeur and beauty. The massive wall surfaces of the dam have become a canvas for artists, who seasonally paint giant temporary murals that reflect the cultural and artistic spirit of the city. These murals often change with the seasons, showcasing a variety of themes and styles, making the dam a living piece of art that evolves throughout the year.

The spillways of Dhol'monon Dam are a spectacle in their own right. When the water is released, it creates a stunning display of rushing water, attracting visitors from near and far. To capitalize on this natural beauty, a visitors and convention center has been established close to the outlets. This center offers a prime view of the spillways and is a hub of activity, featuring bars and restaurants that are particularly popular with tourists and locals alike. The sight and sound of the powerful water flow provide a dramatic backdrop for dining and social gatherings, making it a unique experience.

Adjacent to the dam, the downstream lake has become a haven for boating and fishing enthusiasts. The calm waters provide an ideal setting for various water-based activities, from leisurely boat rides to competitive fishing. The lake's popularity adds to the dam's status as a focal point of both historical significance and recreational enjoyment within the city.

Museums

Hértyodhomos Museum

The Hértyodhomos Museum stands as a profound tribute to Wolgos heritage, entirely devoted to preserving and celebrating the history and nostalgia of ancient Dhonowlgos and the Bind. Located within its own expansive park, the museum offers a comprehensive and immersive experience into the cultural legacy of the Wolgos people.

At the heart of the museum grounds is a meticulously recreated Wolgos Dhonowlgos village, designed to transport visitors back to a time before the fall of Dhonowlgos. This village offers a glimpse into the daily lives, architecture, and social structures of the ancient Wolgos, providing an authentic setting that evokes the spirit of this bygone era.

In another section of the park, visitors can explore architectural recreations of lost Wolgos buildings from the Bind. These structures, brought back to life through careful reconstruction, stand alongside pavilions that house artifacts and displays illustrating what life in the Bind was like. These exhibits offer a rich and detailed account of Wolgos history, preserving the memory of these long-lost structures and the culture they represented.

The main complex of the Hértyodhomos Museum is wholly dedicated to Wolgos artifacts, history, and interactive learning activities. The museum's exhibits cover a wide range of topics, from ancient tools and art to detailed historical accounts and cultural practices. Visitors can engage with these displays through various educational programs and workshops, deepening their understanding of Wolgos heritage.

One of the museum's most distinctive features is its recreation of long-lost or now-banned rituals and festivals that once took place in Dhonowlgos. These re-enactments are designed to be as authentic as possible, capturing the essence of Wolgos spiritual and cultural practices. When necessary, the museum employs human actors to play the role of Eokoesr.

Vṛtodhurás War Museum

The Vṛtodhurás War Museum is a monumental institution entirely devoted to the history and heritage of Wolgos warfare. Located in an expansive complex, the museum provides a comprehensive exploration of the martial traditions that have shaped the Wolgos people throughout their history. The museum’s exhibits are meticulously curated to highlight key periods of conflict, showcasing the evolution of Wolgos military power from ancient times to the present day.

The museum begins with pavilions dedicated to the warfare of ancient Dhonowlgos. These sections offer detailed insights into the weapons, tactics, and fortifications of the era, with a particular focus on the warriors and knights who defended and expanded Wolgos territories. Visitors can explore the development of military strategies and the architectural marvels of fortifications that defined the Dhonowlgos period.

The heart of the Vṛtodhurás War Museum, however, is devoted to the major conflicts that have significantly influenced Wolgos history. A large portion of the museum is dedicated to the Wolgos’ participation in the Pan-Anarian War, a pivotal conflict that culminated in the downfall of old Dhonowlgos and the First Wolgos Trek. This section of the museum delves into the strategies, battles, and key figures involved in this transformative period, highlighting the Wolgos' resilience and determination in the face of great adversity.

The museum also chronicles the expansion of the Bind, a period marked by aggressive territorial gains and the solidification of Wolgos power. This is closely followed by an extensive exploration of the Wolgos Scourge, referred to by the Wolgos as the "Great Lament." This dark chapter in Wolgos history is remembered with a mixture of sorrow and pride, as it led to the Second Wolgos Trek, a massive migration that reshaped the Wolgos’ presence in the world.

Further exhibits cover both Coalition Wars, which were instrumental in the enlargement of Hergom into all of Kupeya and most of southern Tzeraka. These pavilions provide a detailed account of the military campaigns, alliances, and outcomes that expanded Wolgos influence across these regions. The museum's narratives in these sections emphasize the strategic brilliance and martial prowess that have defined Wolgos successes on the battlefield. Visitors have noted that the museum downplays the Arvorian nuclear prowess that brought the expansion to an end.

In addition to its historical focus, the Vṛtodhurás War Museum dedicates a pavilion to modern warfare. This section showcases the current might of the Wolgos military, featuring state-of-the-art weaponry, vehicles, and technology. It serves both to revere the strength of today’s Wolgos forces and to impress upon visitors the continued importance of military power in Wolgos society. Interactive exhibits allow visitors to experience simulations of modern military operations, further deepening their understanding of contemporary warfare.

The museum also houses a pavilion wholly dedicated to the Hlrike and their mysticism. This unique section explores the spiritual and mystical dimensions of Wolgos warfare, examining how the Hlrike, a deeply ingrained part of Wolgos culture, has influenced their approach to battle and strategy. Visitors can learn about the rituals, symbols, and mystical beliefs that have guided Wolgos knights through the ages, providing a deeper understanding of the spiritual aspects of their military traditions.

Stéinoswḗkwos Natural History Museum

The Stéinoswḗkwos Natural History Museum is a premier institution dedicated to the exploration and understanding of the natural history, geology, and biodiversity of the regions once dominated by the Wolgos, particularly focusing on the Dnkluwos islands and the Altaian region. The museum places a significant emphasis on the natural wonders and geological features of Kupeya and Tzeraka, areas central to Wolgos influence.

The museum offers an extensive exploration of the geography and geology of these lands, with exhibits that delve into the unique geological formations, mineral wealth, and the dramatic landscapes that have shaped the natural history of Wolgos-dominated territories. Visitors can learn about the dynamic processes that have created the mountains, valleys, and coastlines of these regions, as well as the natural forces that continue to shape them.

Separate pavilions within the museum are dedicated to preserved fauna and flora from Wolgos-controlled lands, as well as from across the wider world of Gotha. These exhibits showcase the incredible biodiversity of these regions, offering detailed displays of the plants, animals, and ecosystems that have existed under Wolgos stewardship. The museum’s collection includes a vast array of preserved animal specimens, providing visitors with a close-up look at the wildlife that inhabits these territories.

In addition to its focus on fauna, the museum is renowned for its extensive botanical collections.
