Initially a humble village located in the heart of the [[Ithmia]], the [[city-state]] of '''Hashan, | Initially a humble village located in the heart of the [[Ithmia]], the [[city-state]] of '''Hashan, Court of Shadows''', is [[Sapience]]'s third major [[city]] established in the year 222 AF. Due to territorial conflicts, the [[expansion of Hashan]] and its early existence endured rough beginnings, challenged by [[forestal]] organisations and their respective patrons Lord [[Lupus|Lupus, God of the Beasts]] and Lady [[Gaia|Gaia, Goddess of Nature]].

Hashan | A city of secrets and sagacity, science, of the esoteric and erudite, Hashan is led by the Seneschal and council of Regents, leaders in the intricate dance of politics and power that comprises the Court of Shadows. | ||
Hashan displays a tenacity to survive any hardship, its policies marked by supreme self-interest. For centuries, Hashan was home to [[Achaea]]'s first [[Serpent]] organisation, the [[Cult of the Serpent Lords]], as well as defunct [[Spirit Walkers]] and the disestablished [[Sect of the Black Lotus]]. | |||
The year 688 AF saw the stirring of an ancient and unknown nexus of energy beneath Hashan. Surging from deep below, it tore the city from its roots, lifting its foundations to mysteriously float above the scarred woodlands, separating itself from the Ithmia. The wide chasm in the earth resulting from the displaced structure was named the [[Sunderlands]]. | |||
The leaders of the city soon agreed that it was their responsibility to both understand and harness this power, closing its great [[Houses]] so that all resources could combine and be put toward this unified goal. To mark this revival in civic purpose, Hashan redubbed itself the ''Court of Shadows''. In a post-[[House Renaissance|Renaissance]] world, the [[Somatikos]] and [[Krymenian Academy]] now safeguard and advance the city-state's new aims. | |||
During the events of the [[Underworld Rebellion]] in 718 AF, Hashan backed [[Ur'Vampires]] [[Asztrik]] and [[Prioska]]. By a slim margin, Lord [[Aegis]] declared both [[Ur'Vampires]] the winners. Hashan became the first [[Underworld]] foothold beyond their realm. | |||
During the reemergence of the Tsol'teth in 799 AF in what is known as the [[Black Wave#Third Black Wave|Third Black Wave]], Seneschal Krizal accepted a proposal of allegiance - a monumental step in being the first such alliance with surface-dwellers since before the dawn of Seleucar. In response, the [[Coalition of Sapience]] staged a full and immediate assault upon the Hashani, fighting both citizens and the Tsol'teth warriors [[Gattan'bahar]], [[Nahu'an]], and [[Trusad'an]]. | |||
In 802, [[Tlalaiad]] and the Tsol'teth arranged for the access to the Wellspring beneath Hashan. Asmodron Dicondron describes it as " a [[Proteus |Protean]] star, a relic of cosmic power that has nestled itself deep beneath the earth." [[Silon'ukia]] opened a gateway to the [[Underrealm]] within the Sunderlands. Once making the way through the gateway and performing specific steps, any Hashani citizen will have access to the [[Houses of Blood and Dark]]. | |||

Hashan has a tendency to despise divine mandate, seeing it as blind obedience and zealotry.

Initially a humble village located in the heart of the Ithmia, the city-state of Hashan, Court of Shadows, is Sapience's third major city established in the year 222 AF. Due to territorial conflicts, the expansion of Hashan and its early existence endured rough beginnings, challenged by forestal organisations and their respective patrons Lord Lupus, God of the Beasts and Lady Gaia, Goddess of Nature. Nevertheless, statehood was successfully established by Darthus with the support of Twilight, God of Darkness and later Valnurana, Goddess of Sleep and Dreams and Ourania, Goddess of the Moon.

Hashan displays a tenacity to survive any hardship, its policies marked by supreme self-interest. For centuries, Hashan was home to Achaea's first Serpent organisation, the Cult of the Serpent Lords, as well as defunct Spirit Walkers and the disestablished Sect of the Black Lotus.
The year 688 AF saw the stirring of an ancient and unknown nexus of energy beneath Hashan. Surging from deep below, it tore the city from its roots, lifting its foundations to mysteriously float above the scarred woodlands, separating itself from the Ithmia. The wide chasm in the earth resulting from the displaced structure was named the Sunderlands.
The leaders of the city soon agreed that it was their responsibility to both understand and harness this power, closing its great Houses so that all resources could combine and be put toward this unified goal. To mark this revival in civic purpose, Hashan redubbed itself the Court of Shadows. In a post-Renaissance world, the Somatikos and Krymenian Academy now safeguard and advance the city-state's new aims.
