Introduction
The Grand Hall of Yairan is the central chamber of governance and ritual authority in Lavierin. Located at the heart of the Oispiún District, it serves as the seat of the Council of Lavierin.
History
The Grand Hall of Yairan was built by the Namuril during the Great Erosion, as part of the settlement on which Lavierin now stands. When the Great Erosion ended, the Namuril sealed the Gates of Origin and withdrew to the Domain of Yairan, leaving the hall empty.
The Arânzeni found the hall when they founded Lavierin in 302 ME and brought it back into use, making it one of the oldest structures still in use in Dalel. The first assembly of the city's elders, the First Gathering, was held there. Since its founding in 340 ME, the Council of Lavierin has met in the hall.
Architecture
The hall is carved from the surrounding rock, with towering pillars flanking the central floor. The ceiling forms a shallow dome, its center marked by a single keystone, which the Arânzeni later carved with the seal of the First Gathering.
