Sanctum is the capital city of Elysea, a metropolis which hovers at the center of the nation. While the Elyos make up the majority of its population, it is also home to a number of other folk employed by the Elysean government and military; such as the Shugo, who occupy a large part of the financial districts. Sanctum is looked upon with envy and admiration by the humans and other non-Daeva who cannot claim to be a part of its thriving population.

In the beginning Sanctum was merely a castle from which the benevolent Azariel ruled. It was only as the war against the Balaur and the Asmodians deepened that it developed into the city that it is today, a social and vibrant hub and not just a military outpost.

After the great catastrophe that split the world apart, the lands of Elysea were left in ruins. Frequent attacks from the bestial races meant that the rebuilding process was under constant threat. This forced the five Seraphim, including the Arch Seraphim, Azariel himself, to gather their magic and use it to lift Elysium into the air and out of enemy reach.As commerce within the city grew active, Sanctum became the core for economic, military and administrative activities ??? but there was a problem. With the city floating in the air, and the population bursting at the seams, transportation in and out of Sanctum became overcrowded and difficult. This lead to the formation of suburbs forming on the ground beneath the floating metropolis. These days Sanctum is a prosperous complex - equally important as a social center for the Elyos now, as it was to them in its earliest form as a military base.

Sanctum is marked by key structures that epitomize its strength and prosperity. These include the Airship Port, an important centre for trade and transportation, and the ???Nobelium??? - the largest structure in all of Elysea. Also found within the city is an arena for training Daeva, as well as markets, banks and other facilities necessary for any thriving city to possess.While Sanctum is a social hub, not all areas of the city are open to wanderers. Although not much is known, it is said that there exists a holy district where only the most revered Daeva may enter. Such rumors can seldom be verified, but it is for certain that some of us will inevitably cross paths with Elysea???s secrets.
