## History

The Academy Ruins were originally a lively place with the Arcanist Academy of Velathra. This place was more or less synonymous with Velathra, which was a city built by Arden Vassa for srcanist research work. Many arcanists lived here and studied, especially the astronomical phenomena of Coda. They were protected by the Garrison nearby, which housed Sentinels. Centuries ago, a Shaper relic went haywire and caused a cataclysm that destroyed Velathra, its nearby surroundings and ruined it, eventually earning the name “Academy Ruins.”

## Geography and Layout

Most of the architecture found in the Academy Ruins are Post-Legion Era. The differences in the styles of the buildings reveal that. There are swamps, large human structures, monumental Shaper structures, abandoned human ruins, deep water lakes, cave formations, rocky hills, and of course, waterfalls here. There are no anzu ruins found here. Legion buildings found here are very few, but there are plenty of Post-Legion Era ruins. There are no anzu ruins or Urgoth structures found here. Plants grow plentifully. Many types of animals are seen living here.
