An ancient pre-Calamity city that fell into ruins as a result of an attack. It is believed to be the capitol city of Eastern Kindgdoms before the dwarven race took over, though evidence revealed the continent was formerly named Centra Moria instead. The city and its surrounding region was inhabited by an ancient elven race, a splinter group who have diverged from migrants to settle on Esuna.

The ruins are barren aside from countless of humanoid statues of elven figures, revealed to be living beings petrified by strange magical means. Sources found in the city and by circumstancial evidence suggest the destruction of the city and its curse was delivered by Ozma at the height of his reign. It is unclear how much time passes before the dwarven capitol city Brassdorf was built over it, consequently keeping the ruins a secret to the public deep underground.

Session 12 In a guildmeeting at the Adventurer's Guild, the guildmaster had revealed there is a ruined city beneath Brassdorf.
Session 15 After an encounter with Weylin in the Waiting Chambers through a strange light, the party descends to investigate the ruins.
Session 17 Returning to the ruins with Vaeri Aelar, they encounter Weylin and learn more about the city's power source: Volentis crystals.

Aftermath Discovery

The knowledge of the ruins was leaked to the public after the Adventurer's Guildmaster was arrested. As a result, citizens of Brassdorf rose up against the government in growing numbers. In 444 PT, by inquiry of the Four Feathers, the protesting citizens formed what is then called the Resistance League. While initially the demonstrating took place in the plaza in front of the guild, they have since moved to the palace courtyard instead.
