Current faction hubs
Source: retained Illyriad Faction Hubs feed, observed independently of the faction feed. Map links use the recorded hub coordinates.
| Hub / coordinates | Descriptions | Last recorded hub change |
|---|---|---|
| Kelsmouth (-55, -853)#124 | With each incoming tide, salt water washes back up the estuary to the west of Kelsmouth, and floods the fields and mud flats around the city. As the tides recede, flotillas of vessels - from tiny rowing boats to huge ships - sail out upon the waters, heading southwards out to sea. The people of the Kingdom of Tal are keen to live and work upon the sea, and consider a career which ties them to the land a great hardship. | |
| Nemidas (-113, -697)#125 | The people of the Kingdom of Tal call Nemidas their Cursed City. To the visitor, it is not at all clear why. The place is prosperous and well-governed, with huge walls and an admirable army to keep it safe; its surroundings are verdant, food is plentiful, the markets are bustling. It is, by most accounts, the wealthiest city in the Kingdom. There seems nothing Cursed about it. Trade descriptionNemidas is prosperous, secure, well-governed, and well-supplied. Its many markets are all thriving. Yet the people of the Kingdom of Tal call it the Cursed City. To an outsider, this makes little sense. But to the people of Tal, a maritime people, to be marooned in this huge city of stone, surrounded by steaming jungle, landlocked, and far even from the sight or smell of the sea, is a terrible curse. To be condemned to be imprisoned on land, however opulent the prison, they say, is still imprisonment.<br><br>Visiting merchants, however, are very happy with the opulence of the city, and consider that if they must be cursed with wealth, bounty, and sunny weather, they can cope with that. | |
| Port Tal (-302, -763)#117 | If this is the capital of the Kingdom of Tal, strangers often ask, where is the royal palace? One local answer is that the king's palace is the deck of his ship; when asked which of his many ships that might be, the answer is simply, any of them. The people of Tal are a maritime people. And so, this capital city is perhaps not so much the place where the King lives, as the place where he most often makes land. |
Recorded faction changes
Latest 100 retained faction observations, newest first. This is a bounded faction audit, not a hub-change or player/alliance-standing history. Before and after labels come from each observation.
No faction changes recorded in the retained history.
The initial import establishes a baseline. No recorded changes does not prove the faction never changed. Retained coverage may have gaps; missing values are not zero, and feed absence does not prove an in-game removal.
