Long before [[Throne of Destiny]] introduced the Viamontians, this Isparian heritage was planned to be included in the original launch.

Early lore such as [[To Be A Shadow]], [[Zogblaster Archive/Heritage Groups/Aluvian|introduction to Aluvian history]], and [[Zogblaster Archive/Heritage Groups/Gharu'ndim|introduction to Gharu'ndim history]] us the term ''Viamonter'' to describe these people.<ref name=ToBeAShadow>1999/11 [[Release]] - [[To Be A Shadow]]</ref><ref name=ZogblasterAluvianIntro>1999/11 [[Release]] - [[Zogblaster Archive/Heritage Groups/Aluvian|Zogblaster Archive: Aluvian Introduction]]</ref><ref name=ZogblasterGharundimIntro>1999/11 [[Release]] - [[Zogblaster Archive/Heritage Groups/Gharu'ndim|Zogblaster Archive: Gharu'ndim Introduction]]</ref>

An early map of Dereth, labeled "Beta Map of Dereth" on Maggie the Jackcat's site, has a marker labeled "Viamont" located west of Aluvia and north of Gharu'n.

In a developer chat, Chris "Stormwaltz" L'Etoile mentioned that originally more than four heritage groups were planned.<ref name="DevChat2000-06-15">2000/06 [[Developer Chats]]: [[Developer Chat - 2000/06/15]]</ref>

In the [[Stormwaltz 2016 Q&A]], Stormwaltz speculated that perhaps the Viamontians were cut from the original game because both the Aluvians and Viamontians were based on European cultures, but the Aluvians were a more traditional fantasy European culture, and a second was not needed.<ref name="StormwaltzQ&A2016Q28">2016/09 [[Stormwaltz 2016 Q&A]]: [[Stormwaltz 2016 Q&A/Question 28|Question 28]]</ref>
