Attum-Mess
From the Mess you come and to the mess you will return.
One of the older cities in Solaris, Attum-Mess is on the edge of the Halebrook Forest. With roofs made of a hard and ridged bark that guides the forest rain to the ground, growing ferns along their edges in a unique style choice for the region. The town was born from an old bard camping spot, a place where the bards of Solaris would build a set of tents around a fire-blossom and talk politics and music. The space soon gained some of the local troll species, and the local Bidee Foliad population, willing to move from their smaller communities to this ball of colour and sound and light. When the foundation of the city was laid, the town was already known for producing some of the best songs and tunes from those around and it was this creative root that made Attum-Mess a hub of culture within Solaris.
The city that refuses to be mapped
One of the strangest things about Attum-Mess is that something quite strange happens when people try to put Attum-Mess on a map - it rarely ends up there. The cartographer will mess up and ignore it, or someone will spill ink on the map over the spot where Attum-Mess stands. Or if written into a binding someone will mess up the circuits and a indistinct smear will appear where the name should stand. It is not cursed, but people still wonder why this strangeness occurs.Demographics
