Tumulus is a city-state located in the southern regions of Kaelthas within a vast plain known locally as "The Marshes." Founded in 871 by exiles fleeing the tyrannical oligarchy of Tariff, the settlement evolved over centuries into a leading center for innovation and economic development. The city is renowned for its expansive parks, lush gardens, and diverse cultural attractions that draw visitors from across the ██████n Sphere. As of 2063, Tumulus remains a beacon of scientific inquiry and environmental stewardship within the Kaelthasian region. The urban landscape of Tumulus is characterized by extensive green spaces designed to mitigate local flooding risks and provide recreational areas for its citizens. Notable among these are the Vednes Botanical Gardens, which showcase rare flora adapted to the marshy terrain, and the Caseira Wetland Preserve, a protected area crucial for local biodiversity. These cultural attractions not only enhance the quality of life for residents but also serve as educational hubs for the surrounding communities.
