Place
Athrokaan
Athrokaan is an old elven city lying under the Great Western Sea. It sank into the sea during The Desolation.1
Faith and exile
The people of Athrokaan consider harming the kraken a sacrilege. When a band of hunters that included Seischa Grasheel was cornered by the hatchling of the great kraken, most of them died trying to flee from it rather than harm it; Seischa, after losing six of her battle-sisters, killed the beast.1
When the surviving hunters returned to Athrokaan they were met by the honour guard of the temple and were not let into the city: the high rector of the temple excommunicated them on the spot. Seischa, now an exile from Athrokaan, went to the city of Neptune and later joined the Brine Blades.1
