Akashat

Between the Euphrates and the Tigris river, in this portion of the world known as the cradle of humanity, there is a legend rumored at night in whispered voices. It tells the tale of the ever elusive City of Akashat, nestled in its lost Vale between high mountains. The city moves, floating from one end of the desert to the other, never twice at the same place.

Dreams are the only way to access the city, if the dreams are intense enough, that is. It is said that one finds oneself in the city, in the form assumed in one's dream. It is said that some have dreamed so often, so intensely, that they are now trapped in Akashat. No one has any idea what happens, if anything, to their waking selves back in their waking world.

The dreamers are irresistibly drawn to the lost city, as their darkest or most glorious dreams materialize. The dreamers trapped in Akashat soon organized a system of government and rules to hold this new society together. They divided themselves in three classes, the Nobles, who ruled, the Citizen, who usually run businesses, and the slaves, used and abused, cared for and pampered by the other two classes.

The city is ultimately ruled governed by a pair of god-like rulers - Oberon and Titania. The regal couple seldom seem to be bothered by the day to day affairs of their city, but who unquestionably reign supreme always. The routine governance is conducted by an elected triumvirate consisting of the Emir, the Margrave, and the Arcanus.
