Altinova is a big city built on an alluvial island that used to be the capital of Mediah.[1][2] It's the only land bridge to the Valencia region.
History[]
Year 271
The city was built by the Mediah Merchants Union headed by Neruda Shen thanks to the tremendous amount of wealth acquired from trade between Calpheon and Valencia. With the construction of the fortress walls around it, all kinds of residents and merchants gathered to live in the new capital city.[3]
Year 277
The events of the Three Days of Darkness happened. Illezra commanded wicked priests to engulf the entire Mediah region in complete darkness for three days. With neither sun or moon offering light, the people of Mediah had to rely on torches to ward off the darkness.[4][5]
During that event Barbarians from all around Mediah invaded the city and the royal family of Mediah was wiped out in the process.[6]
Nowadays the Barbarians occupy more than half the city and it seems Neruda Shen has reached an agreement with them: he will let them live there if they serve as guards and security.[7]
