Vigjaro Glade

Vigjaro Glade, also known as Vigjaro Vineyards, is a major geographic feature of northern Hyrule that serves a 3-player Skirmish Map in Hyrule Conquest.

Geography
Vigjaro Glade is a forested and hilly valley located between the Tabantha Mountains and Death Mountain Range, roughly 600 square miles in area. It is bordered by Hyrule Field to the south and the Lanayru Coast to the north, with the Lanayru River serving as its northern boundary. The western side of the valley is largely flat, rocky plains best known for the vineyards that grow in its rich volcanic soil, while the eastern side is dominated by the craggy foothills of the Death Mountain Range and an unnamed coniferous forest. The Hylian city of Vigjaro occupies the western plains, atop the ancient Wizzrobe cities of Byrna and Somaria, while the ancestral Harkinian Manor and the Thyphlo Ruins are located in the eastern foothills.

History
C. 7000 BG, the Wizzrobe civilization developed in caverns below Vigjaro Glade, eventually suffering a magical calamity that forced the inhabitants of Byrna and Somaria to flee to the surface and found the Order of the Wizzrobe, outwardly a sect of healers.

C. 3400 - 3300 BG, Akkalans migrated into the valley and further south into Hyrule Field. One of the 5 Great Houses, Harkinian, founded a hold in the foothills, while another, House Vryciaro, settled what would become the settlement of Vigjaro, naming it vrygas ciaro, roughly meaning "shaded trail" in reference to the valley existing in the long shadows of two of Hyrule's largest mountains, Mount Hebra and Death Mountain. The Harkinians become well known as vintners, and eventually subverted House Vrycario as a vassal house, taking their city as their own capital. Eventually the ancestral Harkinian Manor was abandoned, becoming a headquarters for the Keaton Cartel.
