Founded | Founded on 22nd of Daedalan, 623 years after the fall of the Seleucarian Empire, '''Targossas''' is the city of Good. Heralded as the Dawnspear, its foundations were laid by the [[Bloodsworn Gods]] Themselves as They embedded the legendary [[Sword of Dunamis]] into the bank of the Zaphar River. This act created a new branch now called the [[Silverveil River]], which runs east below [[Delos]] past the newly formed archipelago that makes up the city as it stands today. | ||
Presided over by the '''Conclave of the Dawn''', the government of Targossas is yet unknown, only the [[Dawnlord]] currently appointed. The city is, as [[Shallam]] was before it, a theocracy, its citizens trusting to their Gods to guide and to lead them. | Presided over by the '''Conclave of the Dawn''', the government of Targossas is yet unknown, only the [[Dawnlord]] currently appointed.
