Acathon

Acathon is the continent in Miosa's Northern Hemisphere which is the home of the Elves.

It has been discovered by Elven Savants that the Akine tree, is five thousand years old. the Akine tree has lived through the lives of some of Miosa's most influential figures. Civilisations have been risen up and burnt down all within the time this tree has stood tall and proud.

Celestial Palace
The Celestial Palace is the current resting place of all the previous Mothers and Fathers of the forest as well as the place of dwelling for the current one. The Celestial palace is a master crafted structure, with some of the most beautiful sculptures, architecture and artwork the Kingdom has ever seen. It is named the Celestial Palace because the elves believe the roots of the Akine tree connect to Miosa's centre and considering the Palace is constructed around the trunk of the tree, it is inherently connected to the core of the planet, giving it religious and spiritual significance.

Planetarium of the Astral Eye
The Planetarium of the Astral Eye is a large room built within the Celestial Citadel that allows the current Mother of the Forest, Syndra Erthendir to commune with nature and the heavens and see physical representations of the moon of Miosa and a second planet, including the host star of Miosa's system. The Planetarium of the Astral Eye was made after Syndra returned from her global pilgrimage and was built using a reference from what the Giants had taught her.

Galleries of Mars
The Galleries of Mars is the single masterwork of Elven painter Mars Estion a man of prodigal talent and a super-elven eye for detail and likeness. The structure is a massive art gallery, encompassing five floors, each housing gargantuan chambers with almost every surface covered in hyper-realistic, infinitesimally detailed murals: epic scenes from Elven mythology, figures of great legend slaying beasts and dragons, the kingdom's most venerated spiritual figures reaching their own enlightenment and other great moments in mythology and history.

Mars decided to locate his gallery not inside the Celestial Citadel but a publically available testament to history and patriotic glory, as, in his words: "Art does not only find value in the eye of the rich, but in the eyes of all".

Eternal House
The Eternal House is the flaghouse of the Tirion Domain. The Eternal House is a gigantic,reinforced fortress standing on a next of dense branches and it also functions as the factory in which all Elven siege weapons are produced.
