Yinthaesha

Yinthaesha was a steading established by elves as a place for the different species to open up trade and study with the recently arrived humans. A similar steading, Ruallin, was built by humans within a few kilometers away, just outside the forest. Many of Zeno's Children, as they were known by the elves, dwarves and halflings, came to seek refuge in the city.

For nearly two decades trade and relations between the humans and their allies flourished, until the mercenary General Paetani would violently overthrow the human city with his army mostly composed of children soldiers. Shortly afterward e would march on the so-called "fortress", slaughtering all inside, and severely harming relations between the humans and the other species of Velia.

Thought to be haunted, it is a popular rite of passage for young children to spend the night in the ruins of Yinthaesha, before their first commission.
