Heart's Bay

The Grand Jewel of Aurora, Heart's Bay resides on the Heart of Haven in Southern Aurora. Founded in Oct. 21' by House Via Sinclair, the quiet city resides around the bay of its namesake & has a rich history. Based in the Lileanan style, the city is currently in a stage of revival with it's grand architecture & spacious homes that have been adapted with a blend of the Escharian & Auroran building styles. Once a private town for vacations & Nobility, it now welcomes citizens from across the Crownlands of Ashai, the Empire it resides under. The current Arutor (Lord/Mayor) is "Stellate" Antonius of the Noble House of Drake, who took ownership of the city in February of 2023.

The Bay houses one of Aurora's largest populations of Tieflings & Satyrs, with an overall diverse populous alongside Talawan & Celestial elves. Most of the residents speak a dialect of Aréte, a language native to the Niedenae peoples from the realm of the Hemnoré, as brought over from the first Aurorans that settled in Haven. The city is largely a tourist destination from times past, but also has a growing agricultural industry, headed by its vineyards of rose-berries & crimson-grapes. = Founding = The land Heart's Bay was made on once held the Independent Town of Loremere. It was overseen by Rum the Spiritknight in Spring of 2021, whom resided in the area amid the founding of the First Empire of Uldarash. At some point, the town fell to ruin. Then Noble Aerith Via Sinclair took up the land granted by then Aker Aurelian of Aurora as a pet-project in Early August of 2021, intrigued by the promise of the Heart-shaped inlet. The city was formally founded as Heart's Bay on October 6th 2021. It was named after the famed port on the Island of Tessel in the Osterium sea - the home of the Order of the Aurora, whose remnants went on to found the Kingdom of Aurora evermore.
