| The Legend of Red Rose |
Long ago, Red Rose was once called Sandhaven,
due to the fact that desert surrounds it.
It's name changed to Red Rose after
mortals began to inhabit Red Rose. The name
came from the church. The first two graves to
be dug in Red Rose after mortals came to live
there was the reason it's name changed. The
night after two mortals were buried, the Father
from the church came running into the square (now
the park in the center of the city), screaming
about a curse. When the villagers came to see
what the old man was talking about, they were
shocked. On the gravestone of a whore, who had
died in childbirth, was blood spatter and a single
red rose. On the other grave, the grave of the
whore's child, was an entire bouquet of white roses
and a white feather sitting on the gravestone.
Because of the whore's grave, the townspeople
renamed the ever growing village Red Rose. And
ever since that time, every time a sinner died,
there would be blood spatter and a single red
rose to show they had died a sinner. On the other
hand, when a person died as an innocent, there would
be an entire bouquet of white roses and a single
feather, to show that the gates of heaven had opened
to them.
