Virlani (culture)
The Virlani are explorers dedicated to seeking lost knowledge - to them, nothing is greater than the discovery of forgotten relics or forbidden scrolls.
Once prominent seafarers, the Murtuy ka Varha destroyed many of their coastal cities, leaving nothing but ruins occupied by pirates. Despite this, the Virlani still prize the art of adventure and patronize many great voyages across the seas.
Welcoming of outsiders, they proudly showcase foreign artifacts to honored guests, and a common proverb states that any conversation shorter than an hour is not worth having between friends.
