Trivia[]
- In the early chapters the distance between Celum and Liscor was around/over 100 miles and in the newer Timeline the distance is 88 miles,[8] leaving the True Distance of both cities uncertain.
- Sending a single [Message] spell from Celum to Liscor costs a couple of gold coins, though the longer the message is the more does the price increase. The price is so high as it is not easy to cast the spell, requiring a [Mage] to be at least Level 15 to be able to use it.
- 3 drakes appear to have lived in Celum,[9] Jasi, Hess (a drake [Baker]), and another drake actor of the Players of Celum,[5] though that number changed with the main part of the group leaving the city to play in Lellisdam.[10]
- It is in the process of rebuilding after being nearly razed by the Bloodfeast Raiders.[11]
