So I have made some name of cities in Yat-Vrkhazh:
I have 28 cities, and I only have names for 11 of them so far.
We have
I have 28 cities, and I only have names for 11 of them so far.
We have
- Gimel, means "horizon", referencing being the only (habitable) city to first see sunrise on the horizon
- Muḵeb and Qaẕd mean "turquoise (mineral)" and "onyx", respectively. Refers to their location near the minerals
- Haẇwaq means "light"
- Mazlil means "tenacity"
- Ḵpar means "night"
- ʾUzēr means "point of focus", referencing it importance as the capital city where the emperor resides
- Řaẏya means "origin" or "beginning"
- ʾAǧatad-ʾAḵarmum (should actually be ʾAḵarmum-ʾAǧatad) means "white ships", referencing the beautiful white ships that travel from the harbor
- Ḻamad-Suǧǧalum means "old trees", referencing... well the city has very old trees, perhaps Vrkhazh's oldest
- Under Thrice Xandvii's recommendation, I have called the desert between the Pillars (AKA the Great Cities of Vrkhazh): Mazihu-Ǧaḵtunu, which means "Sea of Ghosts"
- ṛ-Ṭaram-Yat-Vṛḵaẕ means "Horn of Yat-Vrkhazh"
- Lastly, we have Tōram-ṛ-ʾIpzētunu which means "City of the Crows". This city was plagued by the famine that the Formless Being, Silḻav, caused when it made its way through the veil. No-one has tried to live there again for fear of it being cursed. It also appears to be where the veil is thinnest...
"Turning iron ore into iron swords is a hard process, for one must first dig out the rock, and melt it to refine it, then one must pour that metal into a mould, let it cool a bit, and pound on it while it cools even further. Games are no different." - Ahzoh
