Kythyss was a small coastal town located in the kingdom of Callidyrr on the island of Alaron within the Moonshae Isles.[1][2][3][4]

Geography[]

Kythyss was the southernmost settlement found on Alaron. It was located at the tail end of the High King's Road where the Sea of Swords and the South Great Head met. Kythyss was found in the county of Stirgewick.[1][2][3][4]

History[]

As of the Year of the Ageless One, 1479 DR, Kythyss had been infiltrated by Amnian mercenaries from Snowdown who were aided by traitors.[6] This occurred since the citizens were desperate for protection given that High King Derid's forces were occupied elsewhere. The natives of Kythyss decided to hire mercenaries to help protect the town. The same mercenaries were bribed to serve the needs of Viceroy Erliza Daressin of Westphal. These mercenaries were led by Ghelvan "the Buzzard".[7]
