Taloba, home to the Myrians, is the thriving core of Falyndar. Inhabited by a fierce and savage tribe where blood sacrifices are normal and a way of life, they are untamed and proud of it. Warlike, and with their numbers growing, the Myrians are set on reclaiming what is rightfully theirs. [Lore]

The House Of Telling

The House of Telling is located near the center of Taloba in a large circular building made of old stone. On the outside it appears simple and dull and the only way in is through a large doorway that has depictions of a woman holding a small child up for all to see at the very top and closer to the ground there shows the back of tattooed bodies of both woman and men but there appears more woman. Once you step into the old building you are met with a circle of stones on the floor that are aligned with the many tiles on the walls. Each tiles is about 2 feet by 2 feet and weighs about 10 to 15 pounds depending on where it's placed.

The bits and pieces of people's history's are all carved into a stone. Each stone holding the story of a different Myrian Clans. Some of them are so old that the paints are hard to make out and are so worn down that not all of the carved grooves can be found. And some have even become so warn that only the stories of the triplets can show what piece of history lay's there.

Other than the many tiles there are a series of support beams all painted to tell a main story of the Myrian's. Though all of the Myrian know of Myri's story, she has her own pilliars in the center that surround the bonfire and arch over it. For those who visit and do not know her story can look upon the pictures on the four main pillars and quickly learn of her victory.

Also inside the building a single ever burning bonfire lay's and heats up the whole place. A good spacing of about six feet of dirt separates the fire from the starting of log seats. Many come to the building simply to gaze upon the different pieces of history to try and figure out what it means, make up their own story for it.

Some of the tiles have dates carved in while others simply have the moon and what is was the night of their tale. Some can be found in chronological order while others are scattered around. A tile from 50 years ago can be next to one eight years ago.

Many of the clans come here to have their story's set in stone for all to see. While some of the smaller clans cannot always have their great stories passed into the large city by word they can have them etched into the tiles and forever be seen by others. Maybe even have the triplets preform their tale. Boosting their reputation and also letting others know about their clan.

It's not uncommon the see non-Myrian visitors here. But the most common age group to be found are the children. And every now and a while when the moon is at it's brightest a group of elderly triplet sister's gather around the fire and tell the story's on the walls. While elderly the sisters actually preform the stories written on the walls they can choose one tile for a whole year and the story will never be the same. Many of the people who come to the small building come to simply see the triplets preform and will bring talk of their own.


Clans who wish to have tales (history) placed in the building as examples need to message Limey or Amora for details.

And those who wish to have a show from the twins ask for a moderated thread.
