Stronghold of education and learning, this fortress is in one of the coldest areas of Idalos and home to many knowledge seekers in a variety of disciplines.

This is the only forge in Viden (being that it is a relatively peaceful place with little need for weapons of a military nature. Whilst privately owned, is commissioned to do all of the work for the city's Rangers and Mariners as well as...
Viden is luck enough to play host to a number of troupes of travelling minstrels throughout the year. At least one troupe will remain for the winter period, when travel to and from the city is impossible. Most come to trade tales with the Prime Atheneum: scribes will record...
Whilst Viden is considered to be one of the bastion cities of enlightenment and civilisation, there are many things that happen in the city because they must, or because people refuse to let go of tradition. As such, some of the more questionable actions and displays can be...

Disconnected Connection
8th Trial of Ymiden, 715th arc
'At least I'm not that cold.' the woman thought, in response to the scornful words that echoed from back around the corner she had just turned. Once again, the natives of this city looked upon her with loathing... Loathing undoubtedly...
