New Ides
Overview
New Ides (pronounced eye-dez) is a duchy of Saludo nestled within The Frozen Mantle, renowned for its luxurious winemaking and cutting-edge technology sector. The duchy is home to Neuveaux Ides, the premier wine company of Caldora, as well as Grape Inc., the developers of the innovative Seed OS.
Originally known as Ides, the region evolved into a duchy under Saludo, taking on the name New Ides to mark its expansion. Its founder and first Duke, Isaac Acentino, established Neuveaux Ides as its first business, quickly elevating it to Landfall’s premier wine producer. Known for its aged vintages and refined selection, Neuveaux Ides has become a staple among collectors and connoisseurs across the land.
Beyond its economic prestige, New Ides is celebrated for its welcoming atmosphere and strong sense of community. The duchy is a hub of social gatherings, festivals, and cultural events, fostering a lively yet refined environment. As Neuveaux Ides Manor and the surrounding town continue to expand, New Ides is solidifying itself as both a center of luxury and innovation within Saludo.
