Lileanen

Overview:
Kaiserslicht (Also called Neusolarien, Sollicht, and Lileanen) is the capital of the Eastern Empire and is a major city of the Etscharii culture. The town is governed by the Aspach (Silvarii) dynasty who hold the title of Kaiser (Emperor). The town is built along the mouth of the Neichse river and in the Schwarzwald Forest, bordered by the sea of Etscharien to the East. Legend says this was the site of a great battle between Auberon I and a force of tribal coalitions, after a long battle Auberon I prevailed and founded the city later on top of the site of the battle. This city would become the capital of the nation he carved out. Kaiserslicht is home to several important structures such as The University of Kaiserslicht, The Sonnekir Cathedral, Falkenstein Castle, Blackstone Castle, and the Bergturm. Following the switch to lands, the Emperors growing power allowed him to absorb the towns of Batavia and Schloss Schwarzstein into the capital, forming the unofficial City of Lileanen.

The city's growth stagnated significantly during the Turtlonian Wars but it would go on after to have an architectural boom where the Hochstein District and University became new centerpieces of the city. The city has seen several attacks from Yimmu, Rebel and Turtlonian forces but has been repaired every time and has continued to grow.
