Ionia

Ionia is the most sacred city in all of Draconia, dedicated to Io and lead by his clergy Ionia has been the location of the most important gathering of Dragons in the world's history with Ionia being noted for it's divine mandated neutrality in conflicts between Dragons. Ionia has wide mainstreets suitable to most Great Wyms, and appears to be a wide expanse of urban landscape within in a mountain crater. The landscape around Ionia serves as natural fortification. Winding mountain passes and precarious steps lead to Ionia for those who can not fly. The city is known as a refuge, and center of knowledge. No Dragon can spill the blood of another Dragon in Ionia lest they be sent away to take the matter with them. Just as Io did not take blood for blood neither will Ionia. Exile rather then death is the most sever punishment in the city. The clergy of Ionia are diverse and often conflicting in alignment but cooperate in all matters they deem beneficial to Dragonkind.
==Orbs of Dragonkind==
Sometime in the distant past, before Metalic and Chromatic dragons would even desire to mate with one another; back when Humans still walked the plains of Draconia- a cleric went into the world searching for Great Wyrms close to the Twilight of their Days with a proposal; a way to avoid the Twilight and escape Death though not in Undeath. To each the cleric presented a magical orb. If the Great Wyrm accepted the offer they would be taken into the Orb to serve as advisers to future generations of Dragons. These Orbs remain in Ionia, and may be consulted should the matter be deemed worthy of such consultation. Among the Orbs are both Metallic and Chromatic dragons all with a different perspective. These Dragons can be freed from the Orbs only if another takes thier place. Should one of these Great Wyrms tire of eternity Io's clergy will go forth to find a replacement though such has not happened in ages. Each orb is colored based on the scales of the Dragon with in. The orbs have other properties dependent on the Dragon. When the Dragon in the orb speaks the orb glows from with in with a color akin to the Dragon's breath attack. Those holding the orbs can use breath attacks akin to that of the Dragon with in, instill a Dragon presence fear attack, or cast any spell the Dragon within knows once a day.
==The Ionian Pantheon==
The largest temple in all of Draconia this building has clerics of each of the Dragonic deities and areas dedicated to each, even Tiamat. The clerics here are typically appointed by the clergy of their respective devotions as emissaries in the holy city. The experience of such a place has been called life changing.
