History

Sirens Call was initially founded by the Great Explorer, of the now capitulated Astrian trade league, Angelic Astumora, traveling south her ship had been battered hard by the Storms of the Wilding straits and needing shelter to rest and repair both ship and crew, the captain had found the small enclosed bay. Astumora, quickly grew in size as many Astrian trade vessels docked and Astumora's journeys ever continued. 
As time passed on and the Eluzian empire, took control of the settlement, as it consumed the trade league holdings one by one, the settlement and Astumora's Legend was pushed aside to make way for the Eluzian Ideals of coin before myth. The legend of Astumora's berthing in the cove became a tale of sirens calling to her in fair winds and she succoming to their song, what the truth is little is actually known...

Geography
