History

Merethic Era

Narsis was one of the first settlements founded by Veloth the Pilgrim at his followers on their way to Resdayn. By then the city was originally named "Narsis-Where-All-Fervently-Praise-the-Prophet-Veloth" but was shortened down to simply Narsis.

First Era

During the War of the First Council, Chimer forces left the city of Narsis when Wulfharth's army was approaching the area from the westernmost bank of the Inner Sea, so they can rendezvous with their allies.

Second Era

During the Alliance War, the Deshaan Countryside was infected by the Llodos Plague. The city of Narsis was then sealed off because of many of it's citizens have been vanishing including the Hlaalu Councilor. The Vestige arrived to Narsis and uncovered a Maulborn plot to spread the Llodos Plague into Narsis along with a Morag Tong Agent.

In 2E 559, House Hlaalu and House Dres warred against each other with a squad of combatants south of Narsis. Hlaalu wanted to set up an outpost in the disputed area, which is near the Black Marsh border. Dres mercenaries surrounded the guards at the outpost and a battle ensued. The guards were outnumbered and retreated to Narsis.

Third Era
