Iosia is the current seat of power for Vaniya. While there isn't a centralized government, the vast majority of the money in the continent can be found here, and wealth undoubtedly leads to power. Sprawling mansions and grand cathedrals are commonplace in the cities, while outside the city limits Barons own large swaths of land. Gold and marble are used as for decor and building, giving the region an ostentatious reptation. The Westwood is home to an elven city that almost rivals Coreal in wealth. The elves there have adopted the flashy nature of their neighbors and often dress in robes of silk and other fine materials embroidered with precious gems and metals. Residents are very often aloof or dismissive to strangers, though gifts and reptation go a long way to earning their attention. |
