The Cyreans

The Cyreans, named after Cyrius the Great, are a race of Thracians who originated in the Cyrean Heartland where the mysterious Marble Tower was constructed. They are the race that founded the Cyrean Empire, which would become the most marvelous and expansive empire in the history of Alderia until the foundation of the Empire of Aria.

The Cyreans made massive advancements in technology, politics, engineering, military tactics, and the arcane arts. They, as a race, lived on even after the Cyrean Empire collapsed around 650 1A 3E. The Empire of Escyreania tried to rekindle the legacy of the Cyrean Empire, but ultimately did not make as big of a mark. Nevertheless, the Cyreans did constitute the Escyrean peoples.

Under the Empire of Aria, they were a major race of Ime (humans) and governed the region of Valden from the city of Chalter. Bremt, their city of origin, fell into disrepair and has been abandoned for millennia.
