Helona is one of the major cities of the Tyrannomachia of Kolasares, also known as Region Kolasares. It lies south of the former capital of Lorent, Relmont, it’s the current home of Vasiliki Kolasares. It includes many notable buildings like the Church of Luthurn, the Town Hall, and the Helonan Colosseum.

Origins
Long ago the dragons lived in peace. They were led by a male dragon named Vasilis. When the first humans arrived they decided to try and attack the dragons to take land for themselves. The dragons slaughtered every human that attacked them. The humans that remained were infuriated and prayed to a false sun god and were blessed with artillery that could kill the dragons. Vasilis saw the downfall of his species coming and went to a god of the moon named Lutherius. Vasilis pledged his eternal loyalty to Lutherius in order to be reborn when a son of Lutherius touched the grounds of the island of Helona again. Lutherius also gives Vasilis primitive Blood Magic to ensure his safety. Vasilis pledges to revive his people in the next life Lutherius promised him.

Present Day
Years have passed. The false sun god was trapped away by Lutherius and all was well. A former Slave of Lorent named Silver is sent by the Luth to form a colony on the island of Helona. There Silver finds a dragon-like woman washed ashore. He greets her and finds her name is Vasiliki. Vasiliki becomes loyal to Lorent and starts forging weapons for the country. Eventually Lorent funds Vasiliki to forge for a possible upcoming war with The Grand Jarldom of Frostmarch. This war never comes and Vasiliki's brother, Hellish, returns from an extremely long Voyage. Together they perform a ritual to summon a demon from beyond to sacrifice. This demon ends up becoming very close with them and introduces himself as Rico.

House Kolasares
Vasiliki one day finds a Ghoul washed ashore just like she was years previously. They become very close and the group of Hellish, Rico, Vasiliki, and Ghoul become almost siblings to each other. Around this time Silver passes the Crown of Helona on to Vasiliki and leaves on a voyage never to be found again.

Around this time a new recruit named Sawaf joins Helona and becomes fairly close with Vasiliki. He eventually destroys half of Helona and flees the destruction. This drives Vasiliki to bring Helona to even better places. Together with the others Vasiliki forms House Kolasares and Helona is pretty much entirely a forging city. They then absorb a nearby town named Murir which becomes part of Helona.

Rico is soon stricken with a madness to see precious ores through the walls and ground. Eventually Rico is smites by the gods and trapped in a prison far away from Rathnir. In an attempt to gain quick money, Ghoul gives himself up to the same madness and dies after being killed by the gods. To comfort Vasiliki, Lutherius sends her on a journey to find the freed Rico. Rico returns but when they return they find that House Kolasares has fallen in their absence and House Celestine has been formed which has taken the majority of their Alden except for Helona.

Reform
Following the formation of House Celestine and losing most of her lands, Vasiliki attends the royal wedding of the Luth and Luthress of Lorent. There he rekindles his friendship with Rico, Demon, and Song. Together the vow to reform House Kolasares. They start by gathering their close friends Gaz and Turtles and including them in the reform of Helona and Kolasares. While the others go and form the towns of Ciel, Orion, and Oceanique, Vasiliki continues putting major work into Helona and finishes the Church of Lutherius.

The Siege of Relmont
Eventually after tensions grew and grew the Pirate Empire of Tortuga declared war on The Lorent. In this time Vasiliki spent days and nights in her forge and helped to supply a large portion of Lorents weapons and armor. She also sent many available citizens of Helona to fight at the Siege of Relmont. The battle is an overwhelming success for Lorent and following the integration of Ato and Serenus into Lorent, Vasiliki declared the Tyrannomachia of Kolasares which will be a region of Lorent.

Tyrannomachia of Kolasares
Now that the Region of Lorent was officially formed Helona continued to prosper. Many new buildings were added and expanded upon. New recruits joined nearly everyday. These recruits sailed through the Relmont channel directly to Helona. This started a new golden age for Helona
