Irrathis City Valrindor Atlas Timeline

Irrathis is the capital of Teryndal in Xalmyrra. The Xalmyrran Council is based here at the Imperial Institute.

Layout and transport

The city stands amid farms and cultivated plains north of the Aethrendar Sea. Its southern docks handle merchant vessels and cargo, with airships traveling above the harbor. Earth constructs move heavy freight, and water mages propel boats along the coast and up the River Selvryn.

Most buildings are made of wood and stone, shaped by earth and water mages. Branches of the Selvryn provide water and sanitation. The main streets have shops, stalls and workshops; wealthier residential roads are tiled and lined with houses and flowering vines. The northern districts are more overgrown, with trees and vegetation mingling with the buildings.

The essence tower rises above the skyline with a crystalline glow. Essence cores power wagons, while earth mages repair and construct roads.

Public buildings and government

Teryndal's Assembly houses the government led by the high arbiter. Xarion leads Teryndal from the Assembly. The Imperial Institute contains the council hall and its archives. Irrathis Magic School stands in the wealthy district behind it.

The Adventurers' Guild occupies a building of stone and wood near the river in the northern districts, with vines covering its walls. Training grounds and sparring rings lie on the eastern outskirts, near the colosseum.

History

The cataclysm

The merging of Xalmyrra's worlds caused the Cataclysm. Lava reached Irrathis, the Selvryn flooded its lower districts, and a meteor obliterated the southern port. Barriers protected the Institute and Assembly. Eira, Lythariel, Rhyzmar and Renneth helped shield the city from the meteor's impact, and mages began rebuilding its damaged streets and buildings.

History

Foundation and the atraxi

Xoltan Morvayne founded Irrathis. Most atraxi refugees settled in Irrathis, where their language became Xalmyrran.

The fight between Aldred and Jorhan devastated the city; Aldred's opening shockwave shattered the Institute. Jorhan killed Aldred, took his spiral shard and rebuilt Irrathis as he drew Xalmyrra into repeating cycles.

The cataclysm

The merging of Xalmyrra's worlds brought the Cataclysm to Irrathis. Lava reached the city, the Selvryn flooded its lower districts, and a meteor obliterated the southern port. Barriers protected the Institute and Assembly. Thalena redirected much of the meteor's impact force with aether magic, while Eira, Lythariel, Rhyzmar and Renneth protected the city from its remaining impact. Mages began rebuilding the damaged streets and buildings.
