Located in the depths of the [[Eastern Ithmia]], the forestal village of [[Eleusis]] was revealed by the [[dryads|dryad]] queen [[Titania]] to a group of [[Sentinels of Nature|Sentinels]] in the year 271 AF following [[Vixen|Vixen's]] bout of illness. Eleusis is a naturally formed habitat in the Ithmia's treetops for the [[forestals]] of [[Sapience]] to call home. Its citizens hotly profess their "village" status despite being declared an official [[city-state]] by the powers that be.

The [[:Category:Houses|Houses]] of [[The Sylvanic Fellowship]] and the [[Sentinels of Nature]] reside in the village, though members of the the [[Ancient Circle of Druids]] may gain citizenship to the village should they desire it.

Eleusis is guarded by [[Tsol'aa]] archers, Dryad enchantresses, and [[Treekin]] warriors, as well as its [[City guardian|Greater Eidolon]], the half-treekin, half-Tsol'aa Guardian of Nature. Stationed at the entrance to the village is [[Elias]], the gatekeeper, while Sir [[Cwincan]], the [[Gaia|Gaian]] Knight, diligently patrols the verdant walkways. [[Vamuria]], the newspaper editor, roams the city, gathering the news of the day.

The village of Eleusis was officially formed in the month of [[Daedalan]], 324 years after the fall of the [[Seleucarian Empire]], by Covenant Stormcrow, Tearstorm Le'Yuet, Riakar Nakanishi, Elsp Le'Yuet, and Mysti La'Saen. It is led by a council made up of seven Leath-ris (literally, "half-kings") who are elected by popular vote. From these seven, one leader is chosen to be the Speaker of Eleusis. The laws of Eleusis are in the form of [[Precepts of Eleusis|Precepts]], which can be found written on a [[cairn stones|cairn stone]] at the entrance to the village.

Eleusis is unique in that it is the only city with no [[adventurer]]-run [[shops]]. The Eleusians enjoy the quaint atmosphere of their village and do not want the haven ruined with such things. Several proud merchants provide for the village, including the weaver [[Aemilie]] and the merchants [[Daestin]] and [[Semanthia]].

;The Eleusian Trading Post : [[Commodities]]

;Eleusian Woodcrafts : Wood [[vials]], pots, and [[smoking|pipes]] by [[Aeron]], the Eleusian Whittler

;Straif is Echtra : Literally meaning '''Blackthorne Adventures''' and named after an old Eleusian family. The stationery shop providing candles, [[journals]], and [[letters]]

Additionally, food for [[mounts|steeds]] can be purchased from [[Epona]], Eleusian Cibeir.
