Vrelu'Tsayo

The great Majestic metropolis is the densest populated in all of Nilaris and that is for one simple reason.

For "Vrelu'Tsayo" is build around many small magical, restorative streams namely, "Bayliv's rills". The lifegiving waters, the people have been gifted by their generous gods, is said to, in the hands of some Gohrish priests, have the power to cure all sorts of plagues and diseases, that tears through some of the other realms like wildfire. Some say the water even have the power to resurrect people from an untimely death, though this seems to be the exception, not the rule. With being a literal haven of life comes a lot of trouble, many of the city's less wealthy streets, while beautiful and lustrous, are infested with lowly criminals and rapists. Furthermore has Countless Wars been fought over control of the water, for as long as the streams have flown, such as Oridan's Conquests or the Blood-Water Massacre. No devastating attacks have occurred in over "80 years" as most of the tribes and cities, who call the "Tsayo Flatlands" their home, came together to form a democratic union, the Tsayon Republic. Before the union was "Tsayo", as it was humbly called back then, still the grandest of cities in the region but as an independent monarchy and were for more then a "1000 years". That changed when the queen of the great city "Gyila III" in "1072 A.IW" wished to unite all who shared the faith of the Gohrish Goddesses, with a people's rule as encouraged by "Shiankey, the Goddess of Knowledge". Vrelu'Tsayo is very renowned not only for its magic water, but also for its great everchanging architecture. Since the city is compiled of many different branches of the faith and has welcomed many foreigners over the last couple decades, it has formed and shaped itself into a massive mush of many diverse districts, like the "Brigor" (Bridge) or the "Tsayo Plachi" (Queens Square)

Brigor

The bridge is the southern most part of the city and is mostly built above the water of the "River Baliris", with techniques brought by people from Yellow Oak. Here is almost no roads and all move through the narrow canals in short gondolas. This is the most diverse district as its where immigrants may house themselves.

The Queen Square is the absolute center of the city and is obviously where the queen lives, who despite having no power still resides in the tallest of the squares towers. Besides the queen the center is also home to the nobles and high merchants of the region and is where the council of the republic discuss the fate of the magical metropolis.
