'''Cyrene, | '''Cyrene, Oceanus' Gate''', was first established within the [[Vashnar Mountains|Southern Vashnars]] before the time of [[Nicator]] and [[Seleucar]], but after the founding of [[Ashtan]] and [[Shallam]]. It was founded by refugees from the [[Ashtan-Shallam Wars]], seeking a place of peace. These early citizens kept the location of their sanctuary secret to keep themselves free from the troubles of the outside world. | ||
Cyrene was discovered by the outside world in the year 288 AF when the blue [[:Category:Lesser Dragons|dragon]] [[Ainghaeal]] terrorised the city, and Cyrene's remaining citizens had called out to the world for help. Revelation Azon was the first to discover the path to the city, and soon the dragon was slain by Janduin with the assistance of many brave [[adventurers]]. The last words Ainghaeal was reported to have said were, "There's nothing better than chomping a Senator." | Cyrene was discovered by the outside world in the year 288 AF when the blue [[:Category:Lesser Dragons|dragon]] [[Ainghaeal]] terrorised the city, and Cyrene's remaining citizens had called out to the world for help.

At the time of the refounding of Cyrene, Czanthria also founded the [[Wardens of the Cerulean Spire|Runewardens]] [[guild]]. Three other guilds eventually joined it in making Cyrene their home: the humble monks of the [[Mojushai]], the fiercely loyal magi of the [[Arcane Kindred|Arcanists]], and the artists and performers of the [[Ty Beirdd|Bards]]. Within time, all four guilds underwent conversions into [[:Category:Houses|Houses]]. After the Renaissance, three new Houses were formed: the defenders and combat trainers of Cyrene of The [[Vashnarian Shield]], the talented artisans of The [[Virtuosi]], intrepid explorers of the wilderness to introspective explorers of the mind in the [[Discurean Outriders]]. | At the time of the refounding of Cyrene, Czanthria also founded the [[Wardens of the Cerulean Spire|Runewardens]] [[guild]].
