Keleas

Keleas (KεLεαs) is the snowy northern monarchy on the continent of Astera in the Starlight Saga. It is usually ruled by a queen. It's name means "Snow-Temple" in Asteran.

Kelean History
Keleas was founded by Velera, bearing of the Rune of Elegance, Keleas' Monarch Rune, after the conclusion of the Runeless Wars. It was mostly a peaceful commercial nation during the Age of Light, a peace interrupted only once in a brief skirmish with Telaeria. Other than that adn the later New Rune War, Kayra has never been involved in any large scale warfare. During the Cataclysm War, the Cataclysmic Spirit of Death took control fo Keleas, and would have slaughtered the country had it had been evacuated. Despite this, many died, and it took Keleas a long time to recover. Not long after the Cataclysm War, before Keleas had been repopulated, a massive earthquake sunk the entirety of it's northmost area, including the temple where Death was sealed. What caused this disaster is unknown. Keleas was invaded and conquered for it's proximity to Mageia's largest border not surrounded by mountains by Telaeria in the New Rune War. A small town, Crystala, was threatened to coerce the Mageians into surrendering the Runebearers. This failed however, and Mageia struck at the town to free it.

Notable Cities
Crystala

Crystala is a city close to the Mageian border. It is the birthplace and childhood home of Kayra Atolmos. It's name was derived from the fact it is very close to a Crystal Forest, a geological formation found only in Keleas, consisting of light blue crystals of varying height jutting up from the ground in a random pattern. The first battle of the New Rune War was fought in Crystala when Telaeria threatened to burn the city down.

Trivia

 * Crystala was originally called Krustallo in Runelight, but the name was forgotten and when next the town was mentioned in Runefire it was named Crystala.
