---

Ahaþrys is located in the southwestern part of the Sikíron Empire, by the west bank of Geþrus River in western Nemirkía.
It's the center of the Cult of Kúlsus and a major source of silver in the empire, its craftsmen are particularly renowned for their fine bowls, cups and diadems adorned with traditional floral patterns.

Demographics

The majority of the inhabitants are native Nemirkíans, with a significant minority of half-elves, mostly descendants of Núrakic Elves due to the city's relative proximity to Núrak to the west. Other small communities include Nartens and bekórans, the latter being cousins of the nartens but have become virtually indistinguishable from nemirkíans.

History

Originally founded as a remote colony of the dwarven Zameltoníans during bronze age to mine silver, it eventually became an independent settlement after a native uprising drove the zameltoníans away. The inhabitants managed to stave off the invasion of human tribes during the empire's downfall, and the city-state of Þrahyssilon was one of the major powers in western Nemirkía before the rise of the Paþarían Empire.
After the empire collapsed and split a thousand years ago, Ahaþrys became part of the successor state of Pérgal, weathered off two sieges by the Kingdom of Núrak, and finally joined the Sikíron Empire after the Sikíronians helped defend it during the latter siege.

Notable people

• Frúldus; the legendary Wolf King of ancient Þrahyssilon who fought (and was finally slain by) Stárakíus, founder of the Paþarían Empire. The final conflict is known in legends as the Battle of Wolves and Falcons.
