Cyre

Cyre used to be one of the Kingdoms of Galifar.  Near the end of the Last War, the entire kingdom was completely obliterated by some sort of intensely powerful magic.  It is said that the complete destruction of Cyre, and the fear of a similar fate, was the main driver of the peace process that eventually ended the war;  if so, this is of little comfort to surviving Cyran refugees, who find themselves treated as poor omens, bad luck, and reminders of terrible things wherever they go.
