Lirrion is a major coastal city on the north-eastern coast of Rendorlin, held by the █lmarkan Empire as part of the Protectorates. Situated on the ██████████████, a shoreline around the shrine-city of Anselmar taken by the █lmarkan Empire in 2041. It is a coastal territory inhabited by about four million people, including Veyari civilians and █lmarkan settlers. The Protectorates are inhabited by about four million people; specific city populations are not recorded in the historical record. and a critical hub for maritime trade and tourism. The city benefits from a mild maritime climate influenced by its proximity to the sea, distinguishing it from the inland Ostranic settlements found further east. The Veyari had lived on the Salt Coast for two thousand years before the Protectorate Wars. including rituals centered on navigation and offerings to sea deities that differentiated them from inland Ostranic groups like those found in Aksan or Lirrion^[1]. The historical record shows the name 'Mark' at the head of the Church since 1873; no specific ancient city named Lirrion is documented. It was incorporated into the Commonwealth of Lyras in 1920, alongside other regional centers such as Aksan and Zekhara. During the Protectorate Wars (2035–2041), the city played a significant role as a coastal hub affected by the █lmarkan landing at Port Ysa and subsequent occupation^[6]. The conflict marked a turning point in the region's governance, leading to changes in administration and population shifts that continue to influence the city's demographic composition today. Following the end of the wars, Lirrion remained under the protection of the newly established █lmarkan Protectorates until the consolidation of ███████████████ control in 2041^[6].

The city is positioned at 55°N 10°W along the winding banks of the river Lirrion, which provides a vital artery for commerce connecting the interior with the Eastern Ocean. Its location places it within a zone of mild maritime climate, characterized by moderate temperatures and high humidity typical of coastal regions bordering the sea. This climate, combined with its scenic coastline, has fostered a robust tourism industry that complements the city's traditional role as a shipping center. Major ports and ferry terminals in Lirrion handle significant cargo volumes, linking the Northern Dominion to international trade routes. Geographically, Lirrion sits south of Aksan and west of Zekhara, forming part of a dense network of urban centers in the Northern Dominion. The river
