The capital of Tynogeum is a very relaxed, yet busy, epicenter of the subterranean continent. Instead of trade being the most important hub of the city, creating enough comfortable space for a Tartyn to call home is. From offering jobs to pay not only for doing the job but also to keep a piece of land for themselves, Demithos is known for its hospitality.
Set in the center of Tynogeum on the Colossal Plateau, the Laurel Villa is the home of Queen Batea and General Theodosis, leading Tynogeum through the last 400 years. Most visitors will stop at Demithos just to say they have seen the most accommodating place on Kunvadis, or to see the fights at the Onyx Coliseum.
History
Early Years
When the first Tartyn emerged from Photia's Blood, they wandered to attempt to find a place where there was enough space for all of them to succeed. It took a while, but it is said that Edall himself flattened the land, while Sados created the bathing pools, as Eire ensured the air was clean enough to inhale and Photia warmed the pools, all to create Demithos. Only the one who had no name, a few other lost ancients, and Queen Batea witnessed the wonder, from the day it first started to the day it finished 6 months later, in 43 BL. From that day on, Demithos grew into a thriving utopia of life and comfort for those who resided there.
Today, Demithos still follows the same blueprint that was created 400 years ago, with the addition of the Laurel Villa for Queen Batea and to hold meetings for the public to attend and speak with the Queen and General themselves.
Notable Locations
Onyx Coliseum
The Onyx Coliseum is a place of fun, fighting, and competition. From hand-to-hand combat to ranged competitions, Stellaborn travel far and wide to participate or watch these fantastical events. Built entirely from onyx from the beaches of Sados's Cove, this giant monument is a testament to the strength of the Tartyn.
Laurel Institute
The main study institution of Tartyn Scholars, the Laurel Institute is dedicated to research and alchemy. From the hundreds of books written from the accounts of the ancients to the hundreds more focused on the effects of herbs and ores, the massive library of the institute is an envy to many.
