Ŋëvra-Vïn

The city of Ŋëvra-Vïn, later renamed to Ïb-Hóðha (Ipotua), was a city located in the Interbiotic Range and a key component of the Palïŋ-Lhrúuŋðarr and the Lrhúuŋðarr Tribe in general. It was situated between the similarly-populated cities of Waðë-Vïn and Dlaýe-Vïn, all three of whom became the informal capital of the tribe due to their position at the center of the Tribe and of the Blýfónic Valley. In a symbolic gesture akin to Žömëp-Fýtaŋ, the three cities have been deemed the Súro, or brain, of the Valley. Ŋëvra-Vïn in particular has often been seen as the 'Nota-Hafžýr' of the Valley, corresponding roughly with the central portion and main processor of the brain, where the innate being is said to reside.

Being equidistant from the Amoŋot Desert and the Ðýmóš Plains, the three cities, especially the central Ŋëvra-Vïn, served as the centerpiece of the Palïŋ-Lhrúuŋðarr and the Ardunioz Tribe and consequently saw some of the consistently highest populations during both the Heta-Alšewharžar and the Nota-Alšewharžar. As such, Ŋëvra-Vïn was unique in being simultaneously the economic and political capital of the Lhrúuŋðarr Tribe and the Valley as a whole, and remains one of the most important major settlements in the history of the Ibrófeneð species.

History

The Plains and the Alëhadic Expedition

The city of Ŋëvra-Vïn, and its two neighbors Waðë-Vïn and Dlaýe-Vïn, were formed around the same time by inhabitants of the Ðýmóš Plains in late-25020 AYM. This was precipitated by the Alëhadic Expedition of 25021 - 25019 AYM, which marked the first such occurrence of a major expeditionary force setting foot in the Plains. At that time, the populations there were sparse and few in number, as all of the previous expeditions had shown the viability of the Amoŋot Desert to the west. It is very likely that the vast majority of Plains settlers were accidentally led off course, away from the Desert, at the confluence (Ŋópïŋ-Arún-Khërn) of the Kairn River System. The population there was concentrated in two cities, Ðóš-Avï and Býnhafý. These were located squarely in Plains territory and adjacent to the eastern edge of the Volain Forest.

The Alëhadic Expedition, upon seeing the much-different landscape and resources, theorized that a trading route between the Desert and the Plains could not be viable, but a huge benefit for both biomes. As such, they galvanized the local population and together they created over 1000 kilometers of roads, each marked at regular intervals by what were called 'transition towns'. These roads adhered to the northern edge of the Forest, whose wood was used in large numbers to help support the buildings. This hodgepodge of materials from both the Forest and the Plains (and later the Desert as well) would come to be a recognizable symbol of the trade route and of Lhrúuŋðarr in general, hence its name the Ótaš-Lhrúuŋðarr.

The apex of the Expedition's journey was in the cities of Waðë-Vïn and Dlaýe-Vïn, which were both founded around the later months of 25020 AYM. This time would coincide with the departure of the Ýlëntuk Family from the Ïlýrhonid Tribe, who would split into the tribes of Kairn and Varhoŋïð-Khalúš. This latter tribe was highly militant and aimed to violently overthrow the Ïlýrhonid Tribe due to what it perceived as deceptive tactics and controlling mechanisms. The creation of Varhoŋïð-Khalúš
