Saint Yusivailt's Rock
Saint Yusivailt's Rock rests on the westernmost end of the Shirdhain Lumeais peninsula in Asbardy. The site is associated with a succession of legendary events. Named after the Arathracian saint of dragonslayers, the rock is reported by folklore to be the site where the saint slew a dragon that had menaced several nearby towns. Tuadbe legend identifies the place as the site where their ancestors, the ancient Neptultchi made landfall born within the colossal divinity, Ochyatsaktlochyá. Moigthe legends describe the rock as the place where ancient heroes would best one another in combat and the site where an ancient witch-king made sacrifice to the gods. The role of the account of the Arathracian saint is seen by scholars as emphasizing that the previous civilizations were now subject to the theological and cultural supremacy of the Yophenthean Empire and later the Arathracian Church.
Today the rock is a protected heritage site and a popular attraction for local and international tourists and pilgrims.
