Editing Dragon Kings Project:Teleris (section)

==Age of the Star Watcher==
Teleris was established by the Dragon King Gurkhai, the Star Watcher, who wished to build a place of lasting scholarship. Where other Dragon Kings taught their subjects military strategy, leatherworking and metallurgy, Gurkhai taught the subjects of his city-state literacy, astronomy and mathematics. This lore was recorded in the Great Library. The greatest of all Teleris’s structures was the magnificent tower of the Grand Observatory, dwarfing even the palace and the Great Library. Many times the citizens would look up at night see their Dragon King sinuously coiled around the tower of the Grand Observatory, looking up at the stars.

Gulkhai was also famous for giving his advice and predictions to do with floods, weather and rainfall. Because of this, Teleris became famous as a city of sages and fortune-tellers. Gulkhai was occasionally known to tell people their personal fortunes, but these were strange and cryptic but usually very accurate in hindsight. He would give these to random petitions – a beggar child in the streets rather than a visiting noble; a water-seller in the streets rather than an important dignitary.
