Loralei · Pleasure, Desire, Prosperity

Aurin

The Radiant City

Loralei's city of terraces, gardens and trade.

Realm profile

Walking Aurin

White stone terraces, planted courtyards, fountains and busy shops.

Loralei raised Aurin with the first dawn, lifting white stone from a valley into terraces. Gardens hang over its balustrades, and fountains occupy the squares between guild halls, shops and homes. The radiant sun appears on the goddess's shrines throughout the city.

Aurin has no single crown. Its institutions share authority, with reputation shaping their dealings and their disputes. Loralei's teaching prizes pleasure, desire and prosperity, but the city's ideal of openness sits uneasily beside private wealth and concealed trade. Adventurers arrive here to find training, employment and the roads into the surrounding country.
