Aeras Daramai is a city situated atop a chain of large 'floating isles', as well as the area beneath those isles. It is the capital of Emkal'roshya, the central hub of the Imvia'roshya star system. It is controlled by the Raiconian Alliance. Currently, it acts as the diplomatic hub for the Alliance, where other nations and races are permitted to visit and speak to Alliance diplomats.

Aeras Daramai's construction began approximately a decade ago under the order of the Alliance upon the discovery of other interstellar nations, intending it to be a meeting place to speak with other empires. Only recently has the Alliance deemed it necessary to finally open communications, and Aeras Daramai, with other nations, abandoning their previous policy of total isolation.

Emkal'roshya is a lush, tropical garden world, mimicking the jungles of Rakavasu on Ranil'inas, but it does have some unique characteristics. A particularly strong magnetosphere has resulted in long chains of 'floating islands', that hover at varying altitudes from five hundred meters to a few kilometers. Aeras Daramai has been constructed on and below the largest of these chains.

Records of the city and its inhabitants are kept within the main Alliance headquarters on the island known as 'Keep'.

Aeras Daramai is mostly made up of Raiken and their respective vassal races. However, other races are permitted to live within the city with proper permits.

• Raiken
• Dralu
• carnin
• rorin

Despite the city's appearance and supposed diplomatic function, a sense of Alliance superiority pervades the glamour. It is made well-known that the Alliance is in control by the bountiful military presence, rich statuary, and the segregation of the city itself.

• Politicians
• Garim Delrasu Oathbinder - An elderly Raiken Oathbinder who works as the Head of Diplomatic Relations for the Raiconian Alliance. Stocky, maroon scaled, and more than capable of handling himself despite using a walking stick, Garim fervently believes that agreements like the Tiam vi Raiken can be made with other races; an opinion not shared by many of his kin. When he's not working, he is frequently found amongst his kin, partaking in drink and song.

“We been fightin' for as long as anyone can remember and I did my fair share, so don't think me soft. But you damned younglings, scales bright and fists tight, thinkin' that's what it means to be Raiken, That's all wrong. Roshya and Surrai, praised as they are, taught us better than that. So yeah, I think this whole 'talking' thing can work out. And if it doesn't? So be it! Another fight for the storytellers!”

• Sayril Relatir of the Silent Vigil - Stoic and scornful, Sayril is Garim's assigned bodyguard, despite her objections to the matter. She doesn't care for outsiders or potential peace with them, like most of the staunch traditionalists within the Alliance. She can be found at Garim's side most of the time, a hand always on her weapon. She doesn't technically have any political power, but being Garim's bodyguard holds some sway.

“Yes, he is my charge. No, I don't agree with him. Dralu, Carnin, Rorin. What difference does it make? They couldn't stand against our might. Why should we offer these new outsiders a different fate? I'll keep to my duty, but I'll be the first to draw my blade when this falls through.”

• Imvia'Roshya System Council - Like any other Alliance controlled system, Imvia'roshya has a Zurak Shai charged with maintaining the Imvia'roshya Star System as a whole. This council resides in Aeras Daramai. It is the highest issuing authority in the system, outranked only by the Nacur Shai based on Ranil'inas. Typically, the council refrains from making public appearances. It has a 5/8 (5 Resa Sarhi members, 8 other clan members) balance, unlike most councils.
• * Business People - While the Raiken do not have a currency, business is still prevalent, primarily on the shadier end in the Underland. * Sulvai Slevexa Coincounter - * Izik - A dirty yellow-scaled Dralu in charge of the Black Market on Riverside. Perpetually drunk, generally unpleasant, and far from polite, Izik is still the person to see to get anything under the sun for a cost. Oddly enough, he owes just about everyone some amount of money from gambling debt. “Yous didn't come lookin fers ol' Izik with pouches o' gold fer nuthin. So, tells me straight, whats you wants?” * * Celebrities * (Storyteller at Amphitheatre) * (Pair of Actors) * Groups * Resa Sarhi - The five eldest, largest, and most powerful Raiken clans: Relatir, Ormroth, Rakavasu, Slevexa, and Delrasu, all have a presence on Aeras Daramai. It is a well-known fact in the Alliance that the Resa Sarhi control the vast majority of the government and all the power that entails. The five Resa Sarhi have varying degrees of willingness to work with other races. While outsiders are not normally permitted to visit clan keeps situated in Aeras Daramai, it is never hard to find a representative of the Resa Sarhi to speak to. * Crystal Collective - The resident Rorin Collective on Aeras Daramai. Like most Collectives, they care little for the opinions or thoughts of other races. Instead, they focus on study and research, most notably on the humming crystals embedded within Aeras Daramai's crust. While the Raiken dislike them for their physical weakness and prideful nature regarding science, they are still free to wander and speak to other races. * Far Sun Hive** - The Far Sun Hive is a Carnin Hive that dwells within the walled-off Hive District. Like most hives, they are generally only concerned with their survival, although this particular hive has been created with the task of seeking aid for their plight on their homeworld. It is rare to see any members of the Far Sun Hive outside the Hive due to the Alliance's restrictive movement policy for the Carnin.
