History and Geography
In the tenth century a number of mills were established along its banks, their only legacy in the place names of the villages found in this narrow valley. Water is precious in these towns, with many houses sold with 'cisterns' listed as an advantage. In summer the river can be completely dry.
In the year 1588, the Dragone flooded, killing two people in Atrani and damaging several houses.[1]
The river received attention on September 9, 2010, when the river flooded its banks, resulting in mudslides in Atrani.[2]
gollark: What I would probably do is:- utterly refactor entire thing and do cool™ things like ECS- explicit change tracking in some way- just represent the entire game state as a big tree, and apply diffing to determine what needs to be saved- accursuously just put everything in SQLite
gollark: Sounds perfect and without flaw.
gollark: So... it isn't saved while they're there?
gollark: I should also not do this.
gollark: I should not.
