Incendies
Incendies is a city made of iron and stone, where the bird Lords forges burn hot, using the heat from Jean-Renaître the Elder Phoenix to fuel them. the city is built on and around Mount Incendies, an active volcano that contains Jean-Renaître and his chains.
The Parrot Aarakocra run this place as skilled craftsman and fierce protectors of their territory in tandem with their Firenewt allies who are native to the area and small kobold who act as caravaneers and discreet messengers for the Aarokocra.
The Forges of Incendies fuel the entire military force of The Elder Bird's armies, molding resources they've received from Grand Nid into eloquent, lightweight weapons and armor. As a consequence of this, The Forgotten Feather had begun its aggressive revolutionary actions against the city, most recently blowing up a titanic statue of Jean-Renaître from before his resurrection, while razing the lower city below, guillotining local leaders, and salting the fields. Rebuilding efforts are estimated to take months and even then the city may never regain the power it once held.

History
The city erupted from the ground along with the Volcano its built into. After Jean-Renaître the Elder Parrot was killed by the Lord's of Dread during the Age of Platinum, King Tais offered to use the power of the Crown of Law to bring him back to life if the Elder Birds would join The Crown. When King Tais rose Jean-Renaître with him arose a massive volcano, with a city crafted within its stonework.
