Yamalin

Founding and Origins
The city of Yamalin is one of, if not the oldest city in Khaz. It's origins lie with the First Great Empire. Yamalin was the capital city to the empire which conquered the entire planet. Yamalin, after the fall of the First Great Empire became the capital of the newly sovereign and established Ehladerana people, the 'elves.' While the city of Yamalin has never been captured, control has swayed many times. Initially the city was ruled by kings from the line of Moah Foke, the first great king of Voljysik. Moah Foke was known for reuniting the Ehladerana people from the two group during the first civil war. The northern city of Harnaye challenged the rule of Moah Foke and led their own king - Noravaka Wolena, who would go on to settle the city of Norvaka. Moah Foke led the armies of Yamalin, Lo, and Gondaj, to conquer all of Voljysik. Yamalin became the capital of the entire island. After many kings had lived, ruled, and died, the group of sages known as the "Valsari," meaning "the wise" staged a coups d'etat and began control over the island. The Valsari reestablished Voljysik as a republic, with Yamalin remaining the capital city. The palace was recommissioned into a great library for the Valsari however.
