Llyrdolín Settlement in The Chronicles of Arn | World Anvil

Llyrdolín

Soth Éllyr

Elven city on the island of Ilvanis, in the lake, Ellyrrevar.  

The Chreösuíl

Llyrdolín was the final home of the Chreösuíl, one of the Chreösi gifted to the elves by Belethör. It was destroyed by Bárzibûl, at the end of the First Age, shortly before Baugoth was defeated [in the first iteration of history].  

The Súlanon

Llyrdolín had a Wind Gate (súlanon) connecting it to Níenost, which made it a valuable target during Baugoth's final assault on Loriléfenin. Near the end of the First Age, Baugoth sent Bárzibûl to lay siege to Llyrdolín and capture the súlanon.   Bárzibûl's assault was successful and his forces captured and sacked the city. During the siege, Bárzibûl slew the city's ruler, Elgaladrin, and took from him the Chreösuíl. In a fit of malice and glee, Bárzibûl destroyed the beautiful artifact without realizing that it was the key needed to open and operate the Wind Gate.   After trying fruitlessly to open the súlanon, Bárzibûl ordered his forces to guard it against an incoming assault from Níenost, and then he returned to Baugoth in anger, disgust, and failure.  

The Strangers

Unbeknownst to the evil Bárzibûl, the adventuring group known as the Strangers had secretly infiltrated the fallen city and witnessed his fight with Elgaladrin. The Strangers found their way to the súlanon and watched as the evil cuena sought and failed to open the Wind Gate. When Bárzibûl at last abandoned his efforts, the adventurers snuck inside the building that housed the Wind Gate.   They quickly realized Bárzibûl's mistake in destroying the Chreösuíl. In desperation, they tried using the Chreösanth, which they had obtained at the Pillar of Avâriën, and it worked. The group quickly stepped into the device and then removed the magical gem from the lock after them, sealing the door behind. Then they were whisked to Níenost, where they met with Celebgil, king of the Thrilgaeri, and joined the final battle against Baugoth.
