Fortuna is north of the [[Heaven's Above Abbey]], and is the first town that most players will explore after beginning the game's second generation.

Fortuna does exist in the first generation, but the bridge leading to it is still under construction: an old man in town mentions that after the bridge was built, the town practically blew up overnight. The sisters of the [[Heaven's Above Abbey|abbey]] travel to Fortuna to buy supplies (with some staying behind to gamble), but they consider the place to have an obscene air. [[Nera]] visited Fortuna on supply trips during her own stay at the abbey, and she and [[Debora|her sister]] also passed through the town while travelling as children. | ||
After the {{Hero 5}} and [[Harry]] say their goodbyes to [[Maria]], who decided to become a nun in the [[Heaven's Above Abbey|abbey]], the duo enter Fortuna and begin to readjust to life as free men after their decade of slavery. Though [[Harry]] admits that they stick out like sore thumbs, the volume of excitement that the town brings keeps them in high spirits.

Though [[Harry]] admits that they stick out like sore thumbs, the volume of excitement that the town brings keeps them in high spirits. As befitting a hustling and bustling hub of activity, Fortuna has several shops, a [[bank]], the aforementioned [[casino]], a fortune-teller, and a curio shop run by a {{Dwarf}}. The little man sells odds and ends unable to be found anywhere else, most importantly the [[wagon]]. | ||

Rumors of [[Coburg]]'s decline into despotic degeneracy abound at the beginning of the second generation, and after the conflict with the [[Faux dowager]] is settled, whispers of the disappearances of children and the [[Order of Zugzwang]] begin. One of the men responsible for kidnapping [[Harry]] is locked away in the town dungeon. | ||
