History of Kasa
Kasa is an old city, and has been the site of many momentous events. Perhaps most famously, it was the seat of the rulers of the Halzhaan Dynasty of the Fourth Age.
Before the Halzhaans, there was another ruling family in Kasa, simply called the Old Dynasty now. The first known members of the Old Dynasty were King Mathidas and his wife Thela Thenn. The assumption is that the Old Dynasty lasted three or four generations after Mathidas and that it ended some time before the Cobalt Eclipse and The Lords’ War – two events where many of the Old Dynasties met their end.
Kasa is a place brimming with legends. Not least of which are the ones about its founding. Some say it was the work of Mason King Nadrimm Kassa, a master stoneworker who built the city overnight, while others insist an ancient, mysterious cult built the city to honour their forgotten queen.
