Vestia is the Sun Elf capital city. It is a sprawling metropolis of white stone buildings, terraces, and archways. In its center is a giant palace where the rulers of the Vestian Empire, the Dawnwalkers, live.
Vestia and its surrounding lands were known as the "Kingdom of the Sun" in ancient times, but today it is simply the "Kingdom of Vestia". Millions of Sun Elves are settled in Vestia and its outskirts. The capital is home to world-renown universities, libraries, performing arts centers, heritage sites, stables, temples, and artisans. It is known for the rich artistry of its people and sheer beauty. Vestia's buildings are some of the tallest, most magnificently decorated in the Crescents.
City Life
The Dawnwalkers have several societal programs to support their people. Any who oppose the Dawnwalker regime quickly and quietly fade from public eye, resulting in a capital where most people think alike and keep the peace. Life satisfaction among citizens is high. Almost everyone in Vestia is a staunch Verunist. A small cohort of Star Elves live on Vestia's outskirts practicing their own worship of Seluna.
Vestia frequently celebrates festivals. The two most-worshipped deities after Veladriel herself are Anashta and Remedia. There are three Courts in the city — large areas dedicated to specific groups of people. These courts are called the Court of the Sea, Sky, and Sun.
The Imperial Army trains on Vestia's outskirts, where there are several barracks, stables, and other military structures. Vestia is incredibly well-protected by a large border wall which its army resides inside.
