What They Know
- Velaris has never been breached by an enemy army; its location is protected by ancient wards and the deliberate deception of the Hewn City's public face.
- The city is governed by the High Lord and High Lady of the Night Court, who maintain a residence at the House of Wind but walk freely among the citizens.
- The Sidra River divides the city into two halves, connected by graceful bridges that are themselves works of art.
- The Rainbow is the oldest district, home to painters, sculptors, and musicians whose work is traded across the courts.
- The Palace of Thread and Jewels is the city's main market, where merchants from all seven courts come to trade—though they believe they are in a different city entirely.
- Velaris is the only place in Prythian where the winged Illyrians are welcomed without fear or suspicion.
