The island of '''Delos''' lies in the middle of the mighty [[Zaphar River]] on the east edge of [[Sapience]]. Delos has defined itself as a place devoted, in the main, to the arts of combat. Here you will find the [[Fields of Valor]], a place where any who choose may do battle free of the worry of losing [[experience]]. Here you will also find a collection of gladiators and weaponmasters that is equalled nowhere else in the land. Led by [[Swordmaster Colbey|Colbey]], they represent mastery of many of the weapons to be found in [[Aetolia]].
'''Delos''' is an island city, as old as any other civilization in [[Sapience]]. Occupied by merchants, traders, cartels, and the [[Certimene|Guild Administration]], it has long stood as a neutral ground, where all walks of life can pursue profit and free enterprise without the burden of nationalistic ties.


It is also rumored that many things thought to be taboo are also sold in '''Delos'''.
The city itself is built atop one of the largest islands on the continent, and dates back to the [[Second Mortal Epoch]].

== Noteworthy Locations and Features ==
=== The Fields of Valor ===
The first [[Sapient]] Arena was the historic [[Fields of Valor]], a ceremonial battleground where warriors, past, present and future, compete in training exercises, bloodsport, and even Divine-sanctioned wargames. The arena is immense, taking up much of the central mass of the city, and comprises a diverse collection of terrain types and strategic features.
=== The Ankyrean Artifact Shop ===
Under the proprietorship of [[Qeddwyn]], the last [[Ankyrean]], the [[Ankyrean Artifact Shop]] is a shopping hub for [[artifacts]], the magical Ankyrean armaments. Players may spend their hard-earned credits here to purchase permanent upgrades and enhancements.
=== The Slavers' Den ===
Hidden in the twisting alleyways of '''Delos''' is the Slavers' Den, where the notorious [[Slavers Guild]] operates, hidden from the public eye. The Den is an extremely dangerous place, filled with very high-level, aggressive [[mobiles]].
