"In ages past, this metropolis bore many names — Hanoch, Sip’par, Yskandar. Since the Era of the Republic, its official designation has been Ys, but only foreigners use that name. To its residents, it is only the City."
The cradle of civilization, the seat of empires, the City has raised its towers and spread its slums at the fork of the Grey River for countless centuries.
Today, it is best known as the gateway to the Underworld. Adventurers — those perennial outsiders, laden with gold and drenched in blood — from across the Wide World gather here to dare the stygian depths beneath the City's streets.
