Natural Protection
The natural underground rock formation that the city is carved into has anti-magic properties. It acts as a shield against scrying and teleportation magic, as well as other forms of long distance spells. by Midjourney

An Unwanted Incursion
The First Battle of Aletheia occured in the year 999. Through unknown means, Lizardfolk discovered the location. They managed to invade the well protected city through aquatic tunnels that fed into underground pools. The battle was joined by Queen Yewthinca who used her colossal spider mount, Rasputin, to break into the main cavern. Her efforts deterred the attack, with some collateral damage and loss of friendly forces. The Deaconess was present during the attack, and may have been a specific target. She notably passed away shortly after the attack, reportedly of old age.Locations
