Felwithe

The white city of Felwithe was founded by the Koada'Dal after the fall of Bastion. They named it after the leader of the exodus, Alissa Felwithe (despite her having refused the throne). Now the city is ruled by King Tearis Thex, a distant descendant of the original ruling dynasty of the elves of Faydwer. The king governs through a loose, feudal structure involving various elven noble houses. The Tunarian clergy handle jurisprudence and have the authority to override the king.   Felwithe, while relatively new, is known across Norrath for its beauty. Its enchanted, alabaster walls emit a soft glow bathing the city in eternal light. Its walkways pass through innumerable plant-covered trellises, and vines climb over the white stone buildings, artfully blending nature and civilization into a uniquely elven aesthetic. The city is constructed upon three terraces cut into the side of a mountain. Teleportation arches allow access to higher terraces; however, one must be carrying the correct key to activate the teleporters. As a general rule, non-elven foreigners are not allowed access to the city, having to make do with the port town of Keresal. Foreign elves are allowed to enter the city, but are initially treated with distrust. Kunarkians can enter but only as far as the first terrace. Other characters can enter only with heavy faction work.   The city has no inns or taverns. Koada'Dal do not engage in revelry and visitors are directed to Keresal if they wish to find accommodations.   Felwithe offers Templar (Tunare, Erollisi, & Marr), Cleric (Tunare), Evoker, Conjurer, and illusionist trainers.

The First Terrace:

  The First Terrace is the lowest level of the city and serves as a "common" district with merchants and craftspeople. The terrace is cut several meters above the top of the path leading to the city, so people entering the city actually teleport upwards several meters. The teleportation arch is set in a colonnaded hall guarded by six Koada'Dal Sentry Golems.   Beyond Felwithe: Sells bags, provisions, rope, etc.   The Chapel of the Aegis: The second largest building in the First Terrace after the Pantheon, the chapel is home to the Knights of the Aegis. It is located in the western corner of the terrace. The entrance is towards the left side and leads into a small temple with templar of Erollisi trainers. From the temple, you can take stairs up to the higher floors or down to the store rooms. A door on the right leads to a small courtyard where the templars drill. The second floor has a dining hall and kitchen while the third floor has sleeping cells for the templars.   Felwithe Keeper: The bank of Felwithe is northwest of the Pantheon.   The Gates: The gates are actually painted onto the walls.
