With little more than a century’s worth of history below its belt, Nuncrest is Passas’ youngest city. Originally established in an attempt to pool the funds of the impovershed societies, the city is regarded as one of the great achievements of the Passasian monarchy, which ruled the nation from 4870 until 5122 ASC. The economy here is driven primarily by trade, and while many locals also work in the mining and farming industries, the majority of permanent residents of the city are employed by Nuncrest Financial, the firm which oversees the city’s finances, and which leads Passas in foreign investments.

In much the same way as it’s Western pallisican neighbors, Nuncrest is renowned for it’s great natural beauty. The New Zimian National Shoreline in particular has long been the subject of many famous paintings and works of Passasian literature, while the Nuncrest National Foothills are revered by many as a place of great spiritual significance. Several nymphish tribes live here, though the majority of the region’s nymphs have abandoned tribal life in favor of modern city life. For this reason, the Nuncrest is unique amongst Passasian cities. The majority of the region’s nymphs live in the city, whereas the majorit of the region’s humans enjoy a more rural lifestyle, in much the same way as they have since the days following the Great Collapse.
