Myth'Talsiria
Government
The Magisters of Myth'Talsiria are the most powerful in the nation. They are law, order, and justice of all Talsiria, and have dedicated their lives to magical study.
Beneath the Magisters is a vast network of clerks, bureaucrats, mages, and other functionaries to carry out the day-to-day management of both city and country.
Infrastructure
Myth'Talsiria's character lies in the blue crystal spires of its mage towers, the floating parks and gazebos above the Prism District, and the living gemstone trees of Arborside.
Most streets are cobbled in white granite. These wide thoroughfares frequently play host to open-air markets, and impromptu performances, bringing business to the permanent shops lining them.
Guilds and Factions
The Postknights of Odrainga maintain a presence in Myth'Talsiria, as do a myriad mage guilds and performance troupes. The social politics of the city are largely determined by these latter two.
History
According to legend, the fey creatures that would eventually become elves first set foot on the Prime Material here. They brought with them decadent magic, astonishing architecture, and a passion for newness. They used their now-forgotten magic to construct a settled base before venturing forth across the plane.
Regardless of origin, Myth'Talsiria has a long history of early adoption and progressive action that is at odds with the longevity of its founders.
Architecture
Pale stone from cliffside quarries compromises the bulk of building materials in the city. Structures are characterized by soaring archways and smooth facades, either left plain or used as a backdrop for other artistic endeavors. Windows are high and narrow, leaving room for decoration around them. Buildings more than one floor high tend toward towers instead of full stories, tapering as they go up.
Geography
Myth'Talsiria sits above sheer, treacherous cliffs against the Elathien Ocean. It is a coastal city without ports, relying on the Malle'Irellune for trade.
