“It used to be a music hall, the Hall of Harmony. Does it not look like a giant pipe organ? They say you could once hear its songs from the bounds of the city.
The slaves would speak differently. They said you could hear only screams.” —Johteuge Xiron
Harmonhal is the official name for the headquarters of the Government of Karazak, a portmanteau of “Harmony Hall”. It is located in the capital city of Oregina on the primary continent of Alucre.
The original building was founded centuries ago and served as a music hall called the Hall of Harmony. In the aftermath of war, the building was repurposed and expanded into the official residence and workplace of the Lord Grand of Alucre.
Harmony Hall, now simply Harmonhal, went on to become the seat of power for all of Karazak upon the planet’s being united into a single authority. As this achievement coincided with a surge of slave labor and trade, the colossal structure became a symbol of bondage.
Though in the present day Karazak has abolished slavery worldwide, the Karazans elected to not cover over the crimes of history. Harmonhal stands as it always has, though repurposed this time into a symbol of hope.
Nonetheless, the edifice serves as a blunt and brutal reminder of what can never happen again, as much as what must change to ensure that it never does.
Intent
To expand the lore of the planet Karazak in general and to serve as a reference point for my Playable Character @Mazeryl Xiron, Governor of Karazak.
