Description and Geography

Map of Tara.

“	Tara, capital of the Aliech Kingdom.	„

Tara is the Capital of the Aliech Kingdom of Uladh. It is also the biggest town in Uladh. The bell rings at 5:30am to signal the start of the day.

Similar to Taillteann, the town has quest boards that give out Shadow Missions but in two versions: Tara Shadow Missions and Tara Rath Castle Shadow Missions.

Tara houses within its city walls the Rath Royal Castle, where the Royal Castle Banquet occurs every Samhain.

Despite there being no proper grocery store, Lileas also stocks ingredients in her shop.

The Jousting Arena, ran by Lileas.
The Erskin Emporium, owned by Eluned and Keith, is the central hub of trade.
