Book II
A Tale of
Three Ancient Cities

As time passes, each place in this world develops history and their own set of legends. What is more, they also develop secrets. In every land that any intelligent race has made their home, the walls, be they of stone or clay or wood, hold great and terrible secrets. The cities become home more to secrets than to people. The Binoq city of Qorfuu and the Åelf city of Ava-shavåis go further, as the cities themselves are secrets within the Barrier mountains and Åelfwood respectively. The human city of Yesulam on the other hand hides within itself a great secret that is also its greatest shame.
