The Cursed Halfway City
Sylmora is cursed by its location almost at the halfway mark between Axont and Kel Alari.
Across centuries of conflict between the two peoples, Sylmora has seen the horrors of repeated war and ceasefire. At times it has belonged to the Alari; at times to the people of Axont. At times it has fallen into ruin, and in more peaceful years it has been rebuilt as a trading halfway-point.
Yet again and again, its position makes it a strategic military point on the map, bringing the horrors of war upon her people.
