Thelysia hall
In the middle of Domum sat a large hall. The hall didn't house wares or coin but instead the sick and weak of the city. The hall was a clear sign of the empires dedication to it's citizen's wellbeing.
while some came to the hall for healing, others came to it for an education as a healer or caretaker. Education in the hall was free but did come at the cost of working in the hall for several years, both during and after the education.
