The Columns of Maia
The Columns of Maia District of
Dianmallo is run by the high noble
Niso Gurgax, cousin of High Vertian
Felix Gurgax, who is the head of
The High Hand.
5a - High Hand's Seat
This is the seat of power for The High Hand. It is fortunate for them that it also connects with the main bridge into the Central Island and seat of power. Currently, the High Vertian of the High Hand is Felix Gurgax.
5b - The Divine District
This district is notorious for its anti-arcane ward that encloses the entire district. No magic, be it primal, arcane, or divine, can occur within this region. It was instituted in the Age of Mysterium as a way to conduct business between the officials of the clergy and the arcane wizards of great power. It remained in place as a potential defense against arcane magic. However, it is also a place where crime does often occur. For revival magic cannot happen here, and business can be conducted without being magically revealed. There is also a prison in here that is completely set with anti magical wards.
5c - Niso Gurgax's Manor
The manor where Niso Gurgax resides. As it is an older residence, it has to be remodeled constantly. It is well guarded with paladins and clerics of the various factions.
5d - Orthomancer Central
This is the capital for the
Orthomancers, one of the three most prominent religious factions in the world. This area also has pockets of anti-arcane fields. They control a large portion of this area's water supply, and they use it against those who practice arcane arts. The famous Hospital of Faith is run by the Orthomancers in this district. Those who wish for the greatest healers in the world must ironically go to those who despise arcane magic the most. It is this that has led many arcanists to seek out other alternative means of healing grave diseases, rather than stooping so low as to ask the Orthomancers for help.
5e - Zealot's Ward
This district, having seen hundreds of destructive moments throughout Dianmallo, was given permission by the King to be an enclave of holy warriors in training. It also doubles as a refuge for any vassals who have made their way into the city and desire to be close to the Conflux. The Swords of Veritamos Training Grounds are a primary place for militaristic training for those who fight for justice and holy order!
