One of the oldest cities in Soltenna, Eldin has been permanently settled from as early as around the late 2nd millennium BCE. Letsatian Empire had designated the city as the Altha Province's capital and constructed numerous urban development and infrastructure projects within and around the city, ultimately leading to the city's significant status as the economic and cultural capital of Lugida prior to the Forian Kingdom period. Eldin is popularly considered as the religious capital of Lugida, housing the Logan district – one of the holiest sites in Avism – and home to a number of significant places of worship, such as the highest tier sermet, the Archphitra of Midian.
