## "Qualmarsh" - Sailor Safe Haven - Former [[Kannic]] City-State of [[Quyaz]]

# Backstory & History
[[Ortysia]], named for the quails who inhabit the nearby coastal marshes, was the first Calradian colony on the shores of the Perassic Sea ([[Calradian-Empire]]). In its early centuries, it fell under the authority of the [[Kannic]] city-state of [[Quyaz]], but the Empire's expansion soon united the colony with its mother republic. For centuries, sailors coming from the pirate-infested islands of the Bay of [[Charas]] gave thanks when they saw its towers looming through the haze of the western Perassic, signaling a return to safe [[Imperial]]-patrolled waters.
This settlement is part of the [[Western-Empire]]. Owned by [[Imperial]] house, [[Varros]].
