The older city belonged to the BFA Runeous era, while the present kingdom's capital is [[Lumenara]] and its royal house is Hartwright.

			== Ancient site ==

			Local tradition identifies the forest around Faelight with '''Eldergreen Forest''' in the ancient ''Runeous'' account. After the great war of the Runeous era, the [[Jacawi]]—the first Fae to return to the [[Sunworld]]—sheltered here while avoiding human contact. [[Eme]]'s meeting with humans is associated with this site, near the [[Silverfall Cascade]]. The present-day mixed settlement of Faelight developed much later; its name and community need not have existed in Eme's time. See [[Old Avaria]] for the ancient human city and its surrounding region.

Old Avaria

Baomont — Tue, 03 Nov 2026 20:27:27 GMT

Establish ancient namesake Avaria from Runeous without conflating it with the later kingdom (via create-page on MediaWiki MCP Server)

New page

'''Old Avaria''' was a human capital in the Avarisburg region during the ancient [[Timeline|Runeous era]]. It is the '''Avaria''' of the original ''Runeous'' story, centuries after a devastating war had destroyed much of human civilization. The later [[Avaria|kingdom of Avaria]], founded in '''120 TRA''' with [[Lumenara]] as its capital, took its name from this older city. The two are separated by thousands of years; their shared name does not establish an unbroken government or royal line.

== City and society ==

As its population rebuilt, Old Avaria rose in levels: tall buildings and elevated walkways connected markets, airship docks, government buildings, a Runic Academy, and military facilities. Surviving runestones and new machines supplied much of its power. Its scholars were still recovering knowledge lost in the wars.

The city was governed through an Avarian government and army. An older monarchy and its knights retained their own records and loyalties; the Institute studied runes and history. These are institutions of the ancient city, distinct from the later Hartwright kingdom's court and guard.

== Surrounding region ==

The fishing village of '''Strondheim''' lay to the south, near an old battlefield where runestones could be salvaged. '''Eldergreen Forest''' lay beyond it. The forest's Jacawi refuge and Eme's first contact with humans are associated with the site later known as [[Faelight]], near [[Silverfall Cascade]] in the [[Avarian Forest]]. Whether the old village or city survive as visible ruins in the later kingdom remains to be established.

== Chronology ==

The original ''Runeous'' account begins roughly '''600 years after a great war'''. Its exact year within the Runeous era and the precise relationship between the old account's ''Runic Wars'' and the Veil incursions remain open. No Hartwright-era institution or modern city is assumed to exist in this ancient period.

Afterward, the Jacawi began teaching survivors to channel magic without relying on runestones.

			\| Humans who know the Fae only through fragments of old stories encounter a girl of the ancient [[Jacawi]] Fae during a conflict. They work together to overcome the threat. The Jacawi then begin teaching these communities to channel magic directly again, without relying on runestones. This is the first remembered Fae encounter of the post-collapse age, not the first mortal–Fae contact in history.
