Melos is a mysterious, uninhabited moon in orbit around Liavara.1 Its entire population vanished in what may have been a rapturous religious ascendance or a more sinister event, though it remains a treasure trove for archaeologists and salvagers.1

Geography

Melos' natural beauty is well-known, but it is more notable for the eerie, ruined, once-great cities, abandoned for millennia. Currently, archaeologists are focusing on three expedition sites: Etraos, once thought to be the Melosian capital; Chyraos, a temple complex dedicated to deities unknown elsewhere; and Thrienos, the resting place of many of Melos' greatest heroes.2

Inhabitants

The entire native population of Melos disappeared during the Taking, an event that happened millennia ago and is described as either a religious rapture or a sinister genocide. Since then, the only inhabitants of Melos have been archaeologists seeking to discover the mystery of the Taking.2
