Yama (山)

Climate Overview
Yama is a city built into and around the tallest mountain in the Kronetopper range. The inside of the mountain is very warm and humid, the outside is very cold with blistering winds.

Social Overview
Yama was abandoned for a couple centuries due to its vulnerability to the Kronenlander Region before the Unification. The people that live here study ancient crafting methods that entail things like forging metal in the magma of the world, writing in ancient languages that are believed to hold magi within them, and performing plays and music.

Yama is home to 15,000 residents.

Cultural Overview
Yama’s culture is built around creating legendary creations, from homes to weapons, from armor to books. This place is ancient, and some surmise that the whispers of ancient craftspeople guide and imbue power into creations that they favor.

There are many guilds dedicated to various crafts. Combat is not common but sometimes there shows of skill with crafting where items’ mettle is tested against extreme challenge.

Many believe that the origin of the Necromancy Flame traces to here, but the roots are more defined in Junsuina Hi.

Economic Overview
Yama has a highway built through it that helps people move to the North if they want to avoid going over the mountainous terrain by going through Verdensrygsøjle. Otherwise, most of their trade revolves around their legendary creations, which often sell for huge amounts, like millions of Slices, a year’s worth of food, and so on.
