Tufor Mym

A famous hill on Sew Bli, known for its spectacular view, and a popular place, among local teens, to go on dates.

Tufor Mym is also the place where three teenage boys found the first Ark Ship, buried just below the hill. The find lead to the invasion of Sew Bli, by Nagri forces, which in turn was the start of The Great War.


In the early days of the war, Nagri forces invaded Sew Bli and tried to destroy the ship, just before Thieian forces took the island back. To ensure the safety of the Ark Ship, Thieian authorities excavated the ship and moved it to the mainland for safe keeping. After the war they put it in a museum in Dot Clyr, where it still stands. A nonprofit organization restored the hill, as best they could, to look the way it did when the ship was still buried under it.
