Aurum, also known as the Holy City of Aurum, is the religious capital of the Federation.
Background[]
History[]
Volume 4[]
Aurum is destroyed by an unknown faction using a bomb, not dissimilar from the one used at Constantine, triggering a march to war by arcanics and humans.
Volume 5[]
Gull reveals to Dagon that the Aurum bomb was made using her blood, placing the Lord Doctor as the likely culprit. Collectively, the Cumaean old gods realize the bomb's goal was not to destroy Aurum but to unearth and breach the vault buried below the city. They were thus able to recover the third Mask of Power fragment from this vault, but they know the Lord Doctor - and Maika Halfwolf - will be in pursuit of the fragment.
Nevertheless, this truth is withheld from the rest of the Federation, who march to war against the arcanic cities in retaliation.
