[ THEME MUSIC ] Signed, 9th Sun’s Smile, 1724 | The Passing of Ancient’s Recall It is in the eyes of all to witness the agreement of neutrality between the Under-Realm of Urguan and the Concord. This proclamation will last over the realm and onto others both known and unknown, proclaiming the neutral stance to which both parties have towards one another. “What’s a piece of paper between two old friends?” The Under-Realm of Urguan and The Concord shall agree to a binding non aggression standard between the armed forces of either nation. The signatory parties shall agree to the following terms to be grouped under a ‘Common Sense’ clause with the purpose of explicitly stating a variety of mutual agreements to be adhered to by both nations. The free and unhindered traffic of goods and services between either nation shall be agreed to and enforced so long as such traffic does not violate pre-standing laws. The extradition of wanted criminals to the nation seeking their punishing therein. The unhindered traffic of citizens between the cities of the signatory parties. The Under-Realm of Urguan recognizes and legitimizes the sovereignty The Concord holds over its people and it’s land. The Concord recognizes and legitimizes the sovereignty the Under-Realm of Urguan holds over its people and it’s land, and it’s supremacy over the Dwedmar as a whole. The domain of the Under-Realm of Urguan is recognised over Da Arakh Agnarmar*, the tunnels beneath them, and the Autumn Tree as well as those which may be gained by conquest. This treaty shall last for a total of 6 Stone Weeks, at the conclusion of which the leaders of both signatory parties shall meet to renegotiate this agreement. Signed: His Serenity, Ithrendas I of House Regis Empyrion of the Concord, Suzerain of the Principality of Llyria and Vira’ker, Protector of Omeryn and Velusul, Shield of the Mali’ker, Keeper of the Scions, Member of the Irongrinder Clan, Guardian of the Primordial, Paragon of the Ohric Will

The Llyrian Concord is a meritocracy created upon the foundation of knowledge and science, while welcoming all inhabitants of Arcas with no judgement of their religion, race, magic, etc. Some of the many guilds and orders who stand with Llyria include (but are not limited to): The Wayward Monks The Ascended Order The Samranist Faith The Frond Society The Mages Guild The Celestial Order The Coalition of Arcane Knowledge The Artisans Guild Most of the time, Llyria has at least a few people in the city you can RP with. However, our activity usually starts around 4pm EST // 9pm GMT, peaking at around 8pm EST // 1am GMT, continuing and fading out at 12am EST // 5am GMT. This information only includes the citizens who have completed the citizenship survey, and does not include guests of Llyria or those who have not completed the survey at the time of this post. 45.5% are Elven, 37.5% Human, 5.4% Dwarven, 1.8% Orcish, 6.3% Transcendent. 56.3% do not practice any form of magic, 24.1% practice a form of voidal magic, while the other 18.6% practice other forms of magic. The Traceless Order is the city’s guard force led by the Lord Protector. A Traceless member has no greater duty than to protect our beloved denizens and city from injustice and crime. If you’re interested in joining our guard force, click [here]. The Llyrian Atheneum is our city library managed by the Lady Curator. Our wonderful library has much to offer for those interested in learning about the wonders of Arcas, magic, the descendants, and much more. If you’re interested in working at the library, click [here]. The Dancing Drake is our city’s tavern, managed by Magnus Caelum (Tahmas). It’s also become a hot spot if you’re looking for some RP. If you’re interested in working there as a bartender, find Magnus. The Edelweiss is our city’s clinic, led by Charles Napier. As all clinics are, the sole purpose is to heal the injured, citizen or not, in their time of need. If you’re interested in working at the clinic, find Charles. The Maelstrom is the bulk of our city’s government, consisting of the six Lords and Ladys and the echelons beneath them. If you’re interested in learning more of our government, click [here] Oftentimes it may be difficult to get started in a new home, and sometimes it might be hard to find the right person to help. Listed below are the names of individuals who can assist you throughout the Concord. Ithrendas Regis / @Thomas - Empyrion; Can assist with the creation of treaties, border expansion, diplomacy, and general questions. Arik Regis / @Assassinofawsome - Lord Protector; Can assist with questions regarding the city guard, law, with training and acquisition of combat equipment. Nemir Iyliar / @UnBaed - Lady Curator; Can assist with questions regarding city culture and knowledge, library relations. Cyrene Riel / @w_ill - Lady Overseer; Can assist with housing, constructional questions, and steward-related questions. Steven Iyliar / @SpodoKaiba - Lord Sage; Can assist with magical questions, laws regarding magic practice, and magical licensing. If any point you are stuck, need further assistance finding Llyria, or have any questions, feel free to message Tahmas on discord (Tahmas#0117) or by sending me, or the above names a Forum PM. We suggest you check out The Llyrian Concord subforum for further information. Located just west of Sutica and Aegrothond’s shores, there Llyria is a short five or six minute run from the Cloud Temple. If you struggle with following the map, here are some more hopefully helpful directions.
