Alexandria is the western capital of Luanna. It was the first city built by mankind. The dwarves and elves both assissted greatly in its construction, but the majority of the architecture and labor was done by man.

Alexandria is the birthplace of both Dante and Eriksoln. It is also where the noble Knights of the Dawn operated. Many historians believe corruption within the ranks of the knighthood was the primary reason for the war the lead to Dante's taking over Luanna.

The flag of Luanna is powder blue with gold lettering/etching. They symbol adorned by the flags is that of three horses charging. Each horse represents one of the races involved in the city's construction (human, elf, dwarf).

The city is very symetrical and segregated. Outside the walls live the farmers and laborers. As one enters the city, the housing for the middle class and businesses can be found. Further into the city, the housing for the wealthy and priviledged can be found. In the very back of the city, the nobles and castle in which the royal family lives can be found.

Atop the castle is a prism. When the sun sets, it shines through the prism in such a way as to cause it to light up with brilliance and colors. Many festivals and sacred rituals are performed around this time.

Today, after the war, the city is occupied by and run by round separate political parties. One represents the capital's original governing body, the other the dwarves, one the elves and the fourth one the people of the east.

You've managed to successfully capture the essence of a distant, unique place, located somewhere between our imagination & our daydreams yet still translate that into an image that looks like it could be a real place. As always, your artwork is a pleasure to look at because it takes us beyond the humdrum of everyday life
