Havosa,

Havosa, Tekas

Population: 54,446 (Est. 2951 YA)

A large city on a Tekan peninsula on the Celestial Ocean, which trades with Lagiri and Nyalam in Ter’Ciel, and Orbour in Tanor. The slopes of the peninsula allow it to see far out into the Celestial Ocean, and it is said that on a clear day Enyan can be seen sparkling in the clouds.

Henley,

Henley, Teshire

Population: 83,367 (Est. 2981 YA)

A large city located between Teschest and Silvas, which prospers from the steady flow of goods in and out of Teshire. It also trades heavily with Cheston and the capital city of Tanor City.

High Tongue,

The main language used by the Lords of Barbaria and their Voices, and also used by the Faeries to mark the Relics and archive human history. However, a careful ruler will also learn the common tongue, as many Voices have chosen to give different orders than what the ruler commanded, causing chaos or strife in the result. The New World lands of Tanor and Bastet tend not to use the High Tongue, and it is losing fashion in Ter’Ciel and Myria.

Hope,

Hope, Bastet

Population: 105,467 (Est. 2981 YA)

The first city to be established after the Bast Exodus, Hope exists on two levels, with most of it’s population living below ground, mining stone and growing the rough plants that spring from the base soil below the desert. The city also exhibit’s a large above-ground settlement, which makes use of the small patches of fertile soil that exist between Bastet and the dark wilderness between them and Tanor. Hope is probably the largest mined city in Bastet, with rumors of shafts that extend all the way to Corinth.

Hope Link,

Once the largest known Link to the spiritual realm, created by Anahita herself in the dying days of the War of Mages in order to beat back the Nephalim. After it was used to hurl these demon-spawn back into Apollyon’s clutches, it was placed with the Tower of Hope, and its volatile energies used to float a large rock on water. Later, this rock would become the site of Atlantis, and the Relic Wall was built to protect it from the violent sea storms of the Myrian Ocean. (More...)

Humbold,

Humbold, Tekas

Population: 47,789 (Est. 2951 YA)

A large city sited near the border between Tekas and Palmeria, which regularly trades with Granier on the river Tolose goods from the Nomad Lands and Springville.
