Ílios, meaning "Light," is a vibrant farming island in Minos, renowned for its abundant production of grains and fruits. Its fertile soil and temperate climate make it an agricultural hub, supplying much of the region with essential crops. The island’s fields stretch for miles, dotted with orchards and grain silos, with farmers working the land year-round.
The spiritual heart of Ílios is its two major temples. The first is dedicated to Arin , the Light God, where worshipers seek blessings for good harvests and protection from darkness. The second temple honors the God of Grains, a deity deeply intertwined with the island's identity as a breadbasket of the region. Both temples are central to the cultural and spiritual life of Ílios, with festivals and rituals held regularly to ensure continued prosperity.

Politically, Ílios operates as a republic, but true power lies in the hands of the island’s wealthy elite. These affluent landowners and merchants control the congress, shaping laws and decisions to maintain their influence. Though the system claims to represent the people, it is the wealthy who dictate the island’s future. Despite this, Ílios remains a peaceful and prosperous place, with a focus on community and the shared goal of maintaining their agricultural legacy.
