	Many Merchants were interested in buying land of their own in the city, so much that the plots were sold before any buildings could even be completed.

	[[Bislo1]] had a plan to turn the town, from the abandoned ghostly town it had slowly become, back into a bustling town as it was in its earlier days. It was not easy, as many obstacles would prove themselves harder to solve than originally thought. One of those problems was to create the supply of goods in the town, so that customers would come to buy, but since many of the prestigious old shops where sold off to wealthy merchants during the first great expansion, who had now either turned their way to the town and unwilling to sell back their given land or left for other unknown reasons, Port Hope needed new land to build on - This led to the construction of a whole new district with several newer shops with magnificent towers reaching for the sky, and carefully designed so that they would be able to attract wealthier merchants. In the hearth of it all lay the ''"Diamond Square"'', inspired from the old ''"Gold Square"'' in front of the Town Hall.

	Plans were coming along slowly and construction were many times interrupted due to attacks, partly performed by rogue pirates, but also attacks from the newly founded [[CoV]] pirate crew. It was a frustration that no one were able to stop these quick attacks, but construction had to continue. In the meantime the old [[/warp food]] had started its own reformation, led by the merchant KellyYore, worsening not only Port Hopes situation, but also attracting customers from the now also decaying [[Port Lanconia]]. Tensions grew between [[KellyYore]] and [[Bislo1]], since the two warps were now directly competing for customers, but the two managed to ease tensions as time passed by.
