Syronea

Syronea sits on the eastern shores of Lake Tanaesis. This city was once a byword for luxury and decadence. This was the center of the Empire's silk industry and an entrepot for the goods flowing in from what was known as Transtanaesia, the imperial possessions and protectorates beyond the great lake. But the coming of the Khuzaits ripped the Transtanaesia from the Empire's grasp and the Senatorial families of Syronea were forced to relearn the arts of war, dusting off old gilded armors and sharpening bejewelled swords to lead their followers against Urkhun's warriors.
