Starhaven Header Image

As the capital of Stellagos, Starhaven has become a bustling hub of activity and life that caters to all Stellaborn that visit or live there. From the Quasar Academy to the Starlight Commons, Starhaven has enough excitement for anyone. Though it was not the original capital from the time of The First, it has become a bastion of pride for the Stellaborn.

Nestled comfortably in the center of the Fergan Steppes and alongside the banks of the Crystal Loch, Starhaven is a central point of commerce that nearly all other major cities need to pass through. Any passing Stellaborn can stop to enjoy the bustling marking of Starlight Commons or stay to find their purpose in the Quasar Academy.


History

Early Years

Before the founding of Starhaven, the capital of Stellagos was called First Landing. It was located on the border between The Burnt Prairie and The Mineral Expanse on the south western side of the continent, and surrounded the point where all of the natural Astrali first landed after falling from the Goddesses guiding hands. As time went on and more Astrali began to fall to join their First brethren, the small town grew into a bustling central hub for all of the Astrali to visit.

However, First LandingStarhaven Flag Image was not destined to be the permanent home of the Stellagan capital. The events of Odum's Hunt ended with the complete destruction of First Landing and the blazing flames that gave The Burnt Prairie its name, forcing the Astrali to rebuild elsewhere.

The First remnant Hypselle Aster led what refugees followed her to the Fergan Steppe, where they came across a healthy and flourishing piece of land. As they settled their camp for the night to attempt to start anew, it is rumored that the goddess Iphion herself sent a shower of stars sailing through the sky to approve of the location they had found to become the new center of Stellagos.

As farmers cultivated the land and builders began their work on the stone walls that would surround Starhaven and the homes that had started to form, the center became a bustling market that came to be known as Starlight Commons.

When the final brick was laid in the castle-like building that would now be home to the Quasar Academy and the Meeting Chambers, Starhaven was finished nearly ten years after Odum's Hunt in the year 14 AL (After Landing).
