Wooodun

Wooodun sits at the edge between human and Elven lands, a vast string of plains, and the only city state overseen by the Confederacy as a whole. The land has been in the possession of the Yak People since they were transplanted by the Elves several centuries ago. The Yanshey are allowed to hold their own government and, while once a depopulated civilization, they have flourished under the stewardship of the Elves. A mostly nomadic people, the Yak People have only in the past twenty years begun to build cities from wood and rough stone given to them by the Elven Confederacy. Their buildings are rather squat and rounded, much like the tents of their past and are open to the air and elements in a way that blends both nature and architecture into a cohesive structure. The rapid expansion of their cities have been aided by the Elven Confederacy, who seek to make their buffer state into a prosperous and respectable place for their wards. Wooodun in times past was run by a council of tribal chiefs, each family unit electing a member to speak to the wider clan meetings. In recent times, however, the Yak People have given more power to the Elven taught Mages of their people, with a small but growing power base forming centered around their “Seers”.
