Tiras Lorin was once a great city of the Valeri, an ancient people of great knowledge and power on the planet of Elara. Though the Valeri race originated on another continent, they were great explorers and discovered many new lands. They set up colonies and established new kingdoms wherever they went. Tiras Lorin was built among great plains of fertile farmland in the midst of the continent of Phaara, far from the original Valeri homeland.
