Kingdom of Vyss Ta-Zaanyr

The town of Ta-Zaanyr sprung up after the War of Eternals, having been comprised of Shadow Elves that had originally hid under the catacombs of Am-Orah. These Elves settled here simply to enjoy the quiet forest and forget about the troubles of the kingdom. Under the dense canopy of trees the Nyseeah Forest offers, the light-sensitive Tallis-Vyss who live here are mainly druids, seers and rangers content to maintain the wildlife and remain excluded from the outside world. The typical Ta-Zaanyr home consists of a burrow dug under a tree and consists of many tunnels. Very little of the city is above ground in fact, save for a few trading posts, a meeting hall and an inn for armies passing through to help secure Am-Orah.

It is quite possible the traveler through the Kingdom of Vyss would miss the forest-blended town of Ta-Zaanyr completely if one did not know where to look; the human armies of the Grand Duchy of Brookshire actually got lost the first time they crossed deep into the Shadow Elvish lands, in an attempt to locate this small town to stock up, before engaging in the battle to the north. It is likewise impossible to see from the sky, making it a harder target for the Dragons. It's often the joke of many Humans in the Grand Duchy that if you want to find your way into the city swift, hit a tree with an axe; you're liable to upset an Elf at his home! Ta-Zaanyr is a popular place for adventurers and treasure-hunters as well as they look to test themselves at the Screaming Halls to the due south.
