Thessia is a coastal Enpeecee village located along the northern edge of Postrema. It is officially claimed and controlled by the New Sammichian Empire (NSE) and designated as part of Thessia National Park, preserving its humble architectural style and natural surroundings.

Overview

Thessia features a traditional village layout, with simple wooden homes, cobblestone pathways, communal crop plots, and a central well. The village remains largely unchanged from its early days but now bears the distinct banner of the NSE, which flies prominently from a tall flagpole near the heart of the settlement.

The surrounding fields and forested areas have been left mostly undisturbed, contributing to Thessia’s rustic charm. A number of small gardens and fenced animal pens dot the village grounds, maintained by the Enpeecees who inhabit it.

Infrastructure

Despite its simplicity, Thessia is well connected. The village is served by two rail lines:

  • Low Line – providing access to the lower elevations and coastal areas of northern Postrema.
  • Norshire Line – connecting Thessia to the broader interior rail network and beyond.

These connections have brought greater accessibility to Thessia without compromising its protected status within the national park.

Nearby Landmarks

Thessia sits just east of Star Tower, a dramatic coastal structure rising from the sea. Though visually and thematically distinct, the proximity of the two locations offers a striking juxtaposition of architectural eras and ideologies.
