**Almaria City** is the **capital** of Almaria. It is divided into three general substructures, the slums around the outer walls, the general living areas around the market place and the royal courts towards the center.

## History

Almaria's capital was raised on the remains of Neaul, the previous **Dragon Lord**, who sacrificed his life in order to establish a consistent and undying source of aether connected straight to the aether flow itself. Following the events of the events of the aether drought, all kinds of species migrated to the newly flourishing location and erupted a city around the dragon's bones, its very core resting on the giant's skull, while his heart later became the plaza of the Fairy Queen.

## Council

Almaria's capital is ruled by a council, who work exclusively by relaying messages to avoid being tracked back to their source. Their names are unknown. Instead they all go by titles that describe states of a day to night cycle. All leaders execute smaller occupations, however, all are serving as smaller pieces in a bigger picture to maintain dominance over the nation. While four of the members are equal in power, their leader would not be dared to be opposed, and all of his decisions have to be obeyed. Noctis rules over the capital from his throne room, which sits on an active aether vein, which fuels him with aether on a constant, corrupting his aether over years, making him dangerously strong on his own. None of the leaders are known to the public, making it impossible for even their alliances to understand who takes action.

The council seems to be engaged in severe nature damaging projects, such as harvesting the ocean's leviathans, exploiting the dragons and tribal materials, and manipulating stronger creatures to follow their bidding.
