Information: Zephrum is a land of contrasts. Beyond The Shining Silver City, the many rivers of Zephrum converge and flatten into a massive flood plain that stretches to the sea. Sitting at the waters edge is the crescent moon shaped city of Urris. In an almost purposeful mocking of to the Shining City's white and silver walls, Urris's walls are made of black and red stone, with towering obelisks of obsidian so large they can blot out the sun. At the heart of the city stands a massive dais, where black robed priests make offering to their cities progenitor, Omnisit. The great sphinx is ancient and some argue she is older even than Ra'ell. The two cities are at constant odds with each-other, though not at all out war, they try to out do the other in various feats of engineering and skill. Omnisit delights in these contests and encourages her followers to make even grander displays, both for her glory and simply to one up Ra'ell. Urris has an usual tradition that Omnisit is central too. Once every ten years a great festival is held, people come from all over the world at a chance, to become the next king of queen of Urris. The reign only lasts ten years but during this time, every whim and desire of the ruler is fulfilled. The catch is, the would-be applicant must answer Omnisit's riddles. If they can answer them all, they are crowned, if they do not, they are thrown onto the pyre, burned and then eaten. Omnisit does detest cold food. Much like her silver counterpart, Omnisit can gaze into the heart of any being and see their true nature. It is speculated that if she likes what she sees in a person she will give them simpler riddles, if she doesn't she will simply make the riddle impossible to answer.
