The cities and towns of [[Terasil]] form the cultural and economic backbone of the realm, each shaped by the geography and history of the land. From the [[Orasian]] strongholds carved seamlessly into the mountains to the [[Minthari]]'s deep subterranean settlements, these locations serve as vital centers for trade, defense, and cultural heritage.
