The history of EverQuest's city of Qeynos

EverQuest's Norrath is a storied place, with nooks and crannies full of unique characters and interesting lore. Even the smallest part of the Norrathian landscape has a tale to tell. Qeynos - one of the mightiest cities of the realm - is wall to wall with personal tales and unique businesses. The official EQ Players site has a lengthy post up, talking about the history of that fair city from the North Gate all the way to Fish's Ale.

The level of depth in the article is a little staggering. It starts with a breakdown of the three zones that make up the city, and moves on into the lineage of Antonius Bayle III (ancestor of EverQuest 2's lady ruler Antonia Bayle). From there, the piece walks through each and every business in the city; a huge number of individualized buildings each with their own little personalities. The official forums offers a place to see players' reactions to the in-game city, and we're always interested to hear your thoughts, as well.
