'''Tyricus''' {{Pronunciation|TEE-reh-cuse}} is the capital of the [[Hellea|Hellean]] nation of the [[Halakran League]]. Located in the sparsely populated forested regions of the kingdom, Tyricus was first established as an isolated royal estate, and only later transitioned to its current status as administrative capital. The monarchy and their retinues are central to life in Tyricus - the city has few inhabitants who do not play some role in ensuring life in the royal palace continues.

Even now life within Asetta remains intrinsically tied to the administrative and political concerns of the League for most of its inhabitants.
