Talisman

Template:Infobox Location Talisman is a scavenger city on Pyrrhia, located in the mountains south of the SkyWing palace. It is one of the four scavenger cities known by name alongside Valor, and the Indestructible City. In Dragonslayer, it is Leaf and Wren's birthplace and former home.

Description

Talisman is located near the Diamond Spray River, south of the SkyWing palace. The village was ruled by dragonmancers until they were overthrown by Wren; the current leader or leaders are unknown. It is described to be a fairly small town, only protected by the dragonmancers and with few inhabitants.

History

Dragonslayer

Talisman was one of the main settings of Dragonslayer, and it was first shown as the home of Leaf and Wren. At the beginning of the book, Wren was taken to be sacrificed in an area close to the Diamond Spray River, but she soon left the area with Sky, never wanting to return to the village. In part one, all of the chapters from Leaf's perspective took place in Talisman. In part three of the book, Wren, Leaf, and Ivy traveled to the village to reveal the dragonmancers' secrets and force them to step down from power.
