Ak'thos

Ak'thos is a Relphi city, being the largest Relphi settlement on Beldua. Due to predictions of a catastrophic event that would destroy their home planet, the Relphi had arrived to Beldua hundreds of years ago.
When first arriving to Beldua, the first Relphi colonists discovers the remnants of a city at Ak'thos, and chose to settle there, where they're been since.

DEMOGRAPHICS

Ak'thos demographic is completely made up with Relphi. This is due to the fact that they don't allow humans to enter Ak'thos, unless it involves research or political matters.

INFRASTRUCTURE

The original infrastructure of Ak'thos was constructed with organic architecture in mind, leading it to blend well into the Belduan landscape. The Relphi took this construction philosophy and developed on it, leading to a smooth transition between ancient structures and newer additions.
Half of Ak'thos is built into the natural formations of the cavern, adapted and interwoven into the existing structures. To the human-eye, Relphi architecture can appear labyrinthian and claustrophobic however the Relphi find that it's a physical representation on how they can harmoniously coexist with the environment.

POINTS OF INTEREST

In the deepest part of the cavern of Ak'thos there is an ancient stone gate that the Relphi say is a portal to another dimension, though there have been no records of the gate opening since they settled there.
Direct access to the gate is restricted and in under constant surveillance, however there are also a number of viewing ports for Relphi to go visit the gate.
