Veylanth

Veylanth sprawls across sunlit plains, its amber-brick walls visible for miles. Lively open markets and roaming musicians fill broad, flower-lined boulevards. Districts range from merchant plazas to quiet scholar gardens, each interwoven with canals and windspun banners. The city’s legacy as an ancient meeting ground lives on in its melting-pot population, and mysterious stone circles whisper of older powers still.
