Prevela (pronounced preh-VEH-lah) is the capital of the Kingdom of Koritan. In addition to acting as the center of the kingdom, where the monarchy and the apparatus of state are located, it is also the site of a grant temple to Malavisch, widely viewed as the leader of his faith on Kishar.

In Y9950* Prevela completed an almost two century-long project to demolish and rebuild almost the entirety of the city to follow a new design. The old, somewhat haphazard layout of streets was replaced with a new set of major roadways that form an extremely ordered grid within the city. Large expanses of the city had to be destroyed to see this project to completion - while the wealthy largely relocated or rebuilt their homes as necessary, most were not able to do so. Many of the people of the lower classes who formerly lived in the city were forced to move to move, largely to one of the newly-formed dense slums on the outskirts.

In the aftermath of the Viridian invasion of Razgovir hundreds of years ago, it was the alliance between the church of Malavisch and the nobles of Prevela who were the most successful in driving the Dominion out of their lands. The city bears many signs of this history. Statues and monuments to exalted figures are everywhere throughout the city, in each square and along all the major thoroughfares.
