Wymoor (pronounced WHY-moor) is, as of Y9976*, the largest city in Erenon. Ruled with a firm hand by Sircathe Wriys and his loyal retinues, Wymoor is seen by some in Erenon as a beacon of the future and by others as an ever-present threat to their freedom.
Prior to the outbreak of the plagues, Wymoor was a relatively small Erenite town, away from high traffic trade routes. Modern Wymoor has significantly outgrown the size of the original town, much of which has been demolished to make space for new construction. Large fields and farms surround Wymoor, providing the city with food and its guards with a clear view of any approaching threats. The well-planned city lies almost entirely inside of a wooden palisade, with its entrances to the east, west, and south always guarded and watched. Wymoor was built on a grid-pattern, smaller streets branching off at right angles from the main thoroughfares.
Wriys and his underlings run Wymoor from the stately courthouse in the north of the city, near the prison, guard barracks, and other buildings of governance. Though the courthouse was severely damaged in a fire in Y9975*, its rebuilding is well underway, even larger and more imposing than before.
Erenite merchants frequently travel to and from Wymoor, as the city provides the best opportunities for trade in the region.
In Y9975*, the Euphoric Insanity was released into the population of Wymoor by Gavros Saekoll as part of his attempt to bring back the plagues in order to collect enough souls to restart a broken teleportation site. Though the Insanity quickly swept through the city, bringing a state of careless bliss to all it affected, Saekoll's plan to release the Restone Plague was halted by a group of adventurers who dispatched him and permanently rid the world of the plague. Statues of the adventurers commemorating their achievement were begun to be built in the plaza in the city center - despite much work however, little progress is made. Many in the city suspect Wriys is intentionally causing their delays, out of a wish to avoid elevating the adventurers into folk heroes.
