+ | ==== Udath, City of Souls ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Udath is one of the great gathering spots of the Kurago for souls, spirits, and [[lore: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * **Grand Plaza:** By far the largest district, and is residential for the most part. Spiraling towers dot the area and serve as homes. Music suffuses this district, and the place is often filled with spirits going about daily business like living folk. The Grand Plaza is also home to the Spirit King's Palace and the Pyramids of El. | ||
+ | * **Spirit King’s Palace:** An immaculate domed palace, carved from spiritual energy to resemble marble and ivory. The palace has three floors and a multitude of rooms, and the Spirit King can always be found within the throne room surrounded by treasures. It is customary to come to the Spirit King bearing gifts. | ||
+ | * **Pyramids of El:** These four pyramids surround the palace, firing off beams of pure spiritual energy that surround the city and prevent it from fading away, as well as preventing any dangerous Delves from forming within city limits. Inside are the Beating Hearts of El, powerful spirits that work to keep the Pyramids functioning. Only the pyramids' | ||
+ | |||
+ | * **Market District:** A fairly normal market district. Spirits and visiting nomads come here to trade their wares, and nomadic incants are plentiful and cheap here. Food and drink can be bought here - although the food is not quite as flavorful or nutritious as it is in the living world. Rumors abound that some spirits frequenting the Market District know ancient arts and incants that are hidden from mortal nomads... | ||
+ | |||
+ | * **The Binding Grounds:** A place where Udathian spirits go to meet potential nomads. This place is a large ziggurat where the two enter and converse; the ziggurat was not always a binding ground, but was present when Udath was built. Its original purpose is lost to time. Those seeking to become nomads here may be subject to visions designed to test them and their bond with the spiritual world. | ||

+ | ==== Minami Reflections ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Hidden in the Mists, this area is a general group of towns and villages which reflect and resemble various places in Cahyali' | ||
