Lhûmar

The Imperial Capital of Lhûmar (Aurlûnoren for Celestial City) also known as the Dragon Capitol, or the City of the Dragons is the capital and largest city of the Aurlûnor Velande. The city is located on the northern point of the Gulf of Heaven of the Lothranis Sea, and serves as one of the most important commercial hubs as well as trading hubs for the Imperial Province.

Although located in the Imperial Province, Lhûmar is an independent city from the region. Known as the Imperial City of Lhûmar, the city functions it's own administration, which is overseen directly by the Imperial Court, and the Imperial Chancellor.

History
Prior to it's foundation, 60 miles west of Lhûmar would be a Guren settlement known as Yu'shen. This settlement would become one of the biggest battles of the Almadorians during the Elven-Human Conflicts. Following this, many of the settlement's inhabitants would migrate eastward, in which, together with Almadorian Celestial Elves, settled in the location of which Lhûmar is founded upon. The first name of the settlement would be known as Lingrinwë, or fish town. As many as a few hundred people would live there, and the fishing village would remain mostly irrelevant, with some minor growth.

By the outbreak of the Warlord Period, the town would fall uncontrol of the Linren State, in which it would be used as a forward military post as the Melwende. The settlement would later fall under control of Sareariel Lelya-Earcala and her forces while fighting the Lirnren forces under the Melwende. When Sareariel turned on the Melwende and formed her own state in the south, she would use Lingrinwë as her capital, and used it as a base of operations. When Sareariel disappeared for thirty seconds, and re-appeared in the center of the town, Lingrinwë would be renamed to Lhûmar. The formation of the Aurlûnor Velande would see Silamar's capital moved to Lhûmar, in which it would grow in size, eventually becoming the Velande's most important and largest city, with many national projects being commissioned throughout Sareariel's mid years following the four-hundred year struggle.
