Eko (pronounced EE-coh) is a small city in southern Brightmarch, located on a large plateau that rises above the surrounding tropical grasslands and forests. In Y9120^* the city was almost entirely destroyed by a meteor shower - though no meteors made it to the ground intact, as they passed through the upper sky they broke up into innumerable smaller stones that then rained upon the plateau with incredible force. Combined with a massive shockwave from the sky, almost every structure in Eko was flattened. Following a warning by the city's sky-seer, the inhabitants of Eko evacuated prior to their city's destruction, most taking refuge in the cliff-side caves that line the plateau.

Eko has long since rebuilt from the damage. The city remains relatively small, less so from its past and more from its location. Eko is away from major routes of travel through Brightmarch and the neighboring Laqto Rainforest. Aside from local traders, most visitors to Eko do so in order to consult the sky-seer, seeking to gain knowledge from her divination of the heavens.
