New Yoake

New Yoake, the dawn and setting sun of Florandia. A frozen city of stone and ice, of towering walls and lowly depths. From the outside it is a place of wonderment and magic where the festives never end. However, hidden beneath the shining streets lies the truths of wicked evils long forgotten. The city itself is a magical place that is infused with the souls of the dead. Souls are a common power source for the many magical artifacts used throughout the city. Daily household objects like lights and stoves are examples of just how common soul power actually is within the city. The slums are one of the few places where magical artifacts are uncommon and highly sought after.

Geography
Situated halfway on an Island over the river Denial, the city sits surrounded by a strange aura of permafrost. New Yoake sticks out strangely among its surrounding environment as it shoots high into the sky constantly frozen over. With mountains to its back and ocean to its front it is near impossible to invade. The ground is generally snow and ice with fracture like caves caused by the extreme cold.

Due to its geological location New Yoake is home to many Hot springs and thermal anomalies.

History
The history of New Yoake is a tale of blood and secrets. In the beginning there was the nation of Florandia.

Founding
New Yoake was founded by Yaoming Lord OldManPablo at the dawn of the first era of Eldham. The small hamlet was isolated in a frozen bubble. When his first born daughter, Yoaess Lady VonObby, came of age she started a large scale revitalization of the hamlet and created New Yaoke. After the creation of New Yoake there was the formation of The Council of Truth and New Yoake split from Floranida.

Regnum Issue
In the coming weeks after the seperation of New Yoake and Florandia the nation of Regnum Drakaes had a dispute over claims. The dispute ended in New Yoake becoming a Vassal to the Nation of Regnum Drakaes. Several months later after many internal conflicts Drakaes dissolved itself.

Current State
New Yoake is currently its own separate entity that runs as a vassal of Barbossa, with many of its freedoms as a normal nation intact.

Religion
There are two main religions of New Yoake, Warped ROT and Helithius ROT. New Yoake allows for the free practice of religion under the Mandate of ROT.

The majority of New Yoake’s magical artifacts are created by the Church of Warped ROT and the use of Soul magic.

Government
Vassal of the nation of Regnum Drakaes, New Yoake has its own seperate government called the Council of Truth and the Noble Family of Respite.
