I have read recently something about Gobaith history and the significance of a Yr description but I cannot find the explanation. I've forgotten where I read it. Would someone please help me find it again?

http://illarion.org/community/forums/vi ... hp?t=32845 Read Damien's post, this may be what you refer to... as far as any more, I don't know...maybe someone else will know.

The genral knowledge seems to be that the Yr were the origional settlers of Gobaith. They apparently had an advanced knowledge of the arcane arts, as well as skilled warriors and wealth. They MIGHT have spoken the ancient language. For some reason they are not around anymore.(Not sure anybody really knows why)
I think Irundar was one of their citys, if that helps any.

My information might not be correct...you don't really hear a whole lot on the Yr.

Yeah well Irundar, Dragon cave and maze and any other underground place apart from silverbrand.

Didnt they also have a connection to Drow :S

Pella says Dragon cave is supposedly Dwarfish. I don't think there was any connection to the drow...

Maybe the dragons carved out the cave themselves with their claws

Oh just there was a drow weapon in Irundar

Maybe the Yr killed a drow?

If you look up the map of the whole known world, you'll see ruins in the far southwest named Yr-Anbarra and Yr-Yzech. I'd suspect those were cities of the Yr as well. More info on those ruins is on the wiki, but sadly only in German. http://illarion.org/community/wiki/inde ... llarion/de

Basically it says, that the culture, that has built these cities was a mix of elves and gnomes and had extensive knowledge on magic, architecture and so on.

So are there Yr items in the game? Artifacts? Never heard ingame mention of such.

There are the YR treasuremaps, the highest rank of treasure maps we've seen so far.
