History[]
Shortly after the evacuation of the Resistance at Lucien, the Resistance Army sought refuge in Ippo. There, their ranks joined the Ippo Army and prepared for an impending Elf invasion. Charnon House also joined the Resistance-Ippo effort at the city. Soon enough, a Shadow Cruiser arrived with a large army of Elves. Much to the surprise of the Resistance-Ippo Army and the Elves themselves, Logi, a courtier of the Elf King, surrendered himself and the entire Elf Army to Prince Trellis. The army was soon locked up in Ippo prison. Following the surrender, Mayor Birman threw a celebration to celebrate the victory. However, the Stonekeeper Vigo Light, was skeptical of Logi's intentions and went to interrogate him. In the middle of their conversation, Logi presents a "gift" to Vigo- a portal to the void. After giving Vigo some time to react, the item explodes, releasing the Emily, in Phoenix form. Vigo is not harmed by the massive explosion, and goes on to try to fight Emily, along with Trellis. The fight continues when Vigo is tossed into a house, where Emily brings harm upon a family. After Emily sees what she had done in an extremely similar scene to the one found in Prologue, she flies off. As a result, Emily was dealt with quickly, and thus, the city did not suffer catastrophic damage.
Defense[]
The city possesses are variety of defenses and safety measures. The main military force is the Ippo Army, composed of melee infantry. Throughout the city are also large anti-air cannons located on tall towers that are each operated by one to two cannon operators. The city also possesses a small air navy of three frigates. Unlike the Cielis Guard's navy, however, these ships are not airships, but are more advanced and stay afloat using levitation technology. They are each equipped with one large, belly cannon similar in design to the city's anti-air cannons.
After seeking refugee there, the Resistance Army integrated itself into the Ippo Army's ranks. Many of its members like Prince Trellis became commanders. Other officers like captains also lead the army.
