Weskott

Weskott is a fictional town and municipality in the northern region of Veridia. It is described as a small inland community with a historic town center and surrounding agricultural countryside. The settlement is situated in the Ashen Valley, near the Worsk River, and covers about 32 square kilometers at an elevation around 210 meters above sea level.

The local government consists of a mayor and a town council elected for four-year terms. Weskott belongs to the Veridian intermunicipal framework for regional services, which coordinates shared infrastructure, cultural programs, and emergency response.

Historically, Weskott developed in the Middle Ages as a market and farming hub. Its economy traditionally centered on agriculture and timber, later expanding to light manufacturing and services. The town retains a compact core with a 17th-century parish church, a market square, and timber-framed houses that reflect its heritage.

The economy today is mixed: farming remains important, while small manufacturing firms, workshops, and tourism-oriented services contribute to employment. The population is around 5,400 residents, with demographics typical of rural Veridia and a growing number of commuters.

Education and culture: Weskott has a primary school and a secondary school in the nearby city. The town hosts an annual harvest festival, music concerts, and a civic center that houses a library and exhibitions.

Transportation: Weskott is connected by regional roads; there is no rail line within the municipality, and the nearest train station is in a neighboring town. Local bus services link residential areas with the town center.
