Soporte

Soporte is a former, recently re-instated city located in Espiria. About four hundred years ago (LE 2) the inhabitants of the city were thrust into a wakeless sleep, which mysteriously ended in LE 402.

Pre-Bubble
Prior to being bubbled, Soporte was the location of the island's singular church. The religion of the island, dragon worship, involved veneration to a variety of deities and lesser draconic creatures. At the time it was considered the capital of the island, as Darrow's Tarn was not much more than a fishing village.

A 400 Year Bubbled History
From the perspective of everyone else on the island, every inhabitant of Soporte and its surrounding farmland inexplicably fell asleep where they stood. Even after 400 years their bodies failed to age and were magically protected from predators, decay, and bandits even as the structures around them began to deteriorate. It was eventually labeled a cursed land, and the peninsula was cut off from the rest of the island with a fence covered in various wards.

From the perspective of those living in Soporte, it seemed as though a pair of bubbles had appeared. One large blue one overtaking the entire peninsula, with a much smaller red one over the city. For about 100 years no one was able to travel between the two bubbles, until those in the city found a type of magic that would temporarily tear a hole into the red bubble, allowing precious resources from the farmlands into the city. No one could make a scratch on the blue bubble however.

Over the years the dragon religion advanced in unusual directions, and the priests eventually devised a way to rebirth the human population into artificially created dragonborn. By the time 400 years pass, nearly everyone either looks like a full dragonborn or has at least a few draconic features.

Post-Bubble
When the bubble finally comes down, those that had been put to sleep 400 years prior awaken, effectively erasing the 400 years of time in the bubble, as well as all of the descendants created from it, which only existed within a shared dream between them.
