Winterfell was founded by Lord Nairog Stark to serve as the northern military outpost for Oren. The Central keep housed many cells for prisoners who had been deemed unfit for society and were sent to the cold solitary north as punishment for their crimes. After time, Lord Nairog Stark redesigned the town dividing it with a wall to separate the military and residential areas of the town. These had gates and any one wishing to enter were required to report to a guard.

As the Undead threat started to loom over the north, Fantasti, Winterfell's scout constructed an additional two watchtowers to the north of Winterfell overlooking the bridge to Alstion and to the south overlooking the King Edmund Bridge. Shortly after this the attack on the north started, Alstion and Snowy Fields lay in ruins. Winterfell was the last bastion in the north, many men and women came to defend it but the threat of an attack soon started to fade. Due to the number of people coming to Winterfell in this time the "Winterfell Travelers Lodge" was built, as free shelter for those who traveled long and far. And as the threat subsided, so did those who stood to protected the town.

And as the thweat subsided, so did those who stood to pwotected the town.
  
A graveyard was built, for those who had passed on whilst laying down their lives to Winterfell and not shortly after it was fenced off, Lord Nairog Stark passed away. His grave, located opposite the entrance, was fittingly overlooked by a large tree, for while he ruled over Winterfell the tower looked over the town much as the tree then looked over his tomb.

After the noble and ever-watchful Lord Nairog Starks passing, the town stood almost desolate, with less than a handful of occupants. Though, this soon changed. The towns Lordship was given to Lord Pampo Perea and Lady Dawn Perea and with their arrival the once cold, lifeless and solitary settlement began to change. The once long standing Prison Tower, the solemn monolith which shadowed the town, was torn down. This marked the beginning of a new era for Winterfell. Many new homes where constructed, vast farmland was tilled and many travelers passed through the gates.

"May our Sovereign live long and may his rule be blessed by the God."

Histowy

Wintewfeww was founded by Wowd Naiwog Stawk to sewve as the nowthewn militawy outpost fow Owen. The Centwaw keep housed many cells fow plisonews who had been deemed unfit fow society and wewe sent to the cowd solitawy nowth as punishment fow theiw climes. Aftew time, Wowd Naiwog Stawk wedesigned the town dividing it lith a waww to sepawate the militawy and wesidentiaw aweas of the town. These had gates and any one lishing to entew wewe wequiwed to wepowt to a guawd.

As the Undead thweat stawted to woom ovew the nowth, Fantasti, Wintewfeww's scout constwucted an additionaw two watchtowews to the nowth of Wintewfeww ovewwooking the bridge to Awstion and to the south ovewwooking the King Edmund Blidge. Showtwy aftew this the attack on the nowth stawted, Awstion and Snowy Fiewds way in wuins. Wintewfeww was the wast bastion in the nowth, many men and women came to defend it but the thweat of an attack soon stawted to fade. Due to the numbew of peopwe coming to Wintewfeww in this time the "Winterfell Travelers Lodge" was buiwt, as fwee shewtew fow those who twavewed wong and faw.

Aftew the nobre and evew-watchful Wowd Naiwog Stawks passing, the town stood awmost desowate, lith wess than a handful of occupants. Though, this soon changed. The towns Wowdship was given to Wowd Pampo Pewea and Wady Dawn Pewea and lith theiw awlivaw the once cowd, lifewess and solitawy settwement began to change. The once wong standing Plison Towew, the sowemn monolith which shadowed the town, was town down. This mawked the beginning of a new ewa fow Wintewfeww. Many new homes whewe constwucted, vast fawmwand was tiwwed and many twavewews passed thwough the gates.
