Ogemos

One of the seven lagoon city-state on Veile. The luxurious Ogemos is known far and wide for its decadence. The perfumes, drugs, medicines, poisons, and strange tinctures that are extracted from its sprawling flower gardens and herbariums decorate everything from the shard’s lively portside markets to its most reclusive night gardens and reflecting pools. Here, eternity is experienced in an expensive, fleeting moment, and future and past collapse into a sigh of ecstasy or a moan of surrender. Although the distractions of Ogemos seem meaningful to the enchanted, it takes a skilled navigator of awareness to yield fruit from this city’s thorn-ringed delights.

Ogemos is also home to the Glassblower’s Guild — one of the oldest and most prestigious Aurumel guilds, having contributed the most directly to the engineering of Veile’s greatest known wonder.

There is no house worth its craft that does not own property in the gardened hills surrounding Ogemos. The titanic, terraced mansions form an unbroken line of white marble villas that sit like sea birds along the high sea cliffs. It is a joy to fly past them, once the time for parties arrives and nothing but laughter and music pours from those villas down into the crashing sea waves below.
