Mytilene is a sprawling agricultural estate on the Taldryan-controlled planet of Kasiya.
Geography
Location of Mytilene on Kasiya
Located in the forested foothills of the Scios Range, north of Port Kasiya, Mytilene is a 7,000-acre reserve set aside for the use of the Taldryan Republic. It was purchased in 39 ABY at the direction of outgoing Consul Seraine "Erinyes" Taldrya Ténama, to be placed under the management of the new agricultural division of TEAD Technologies. There, Mytilene would become the home of two of Taldryan's best-loved commercial enterprises.
Residents
In the short amount of time it has been established, Mytilene has already become home to a small but thriving community.
New Mecetti
Thanks to Mytilene's proximity to both Port Kasiya and the Scios Range, a number of wealthy residents of Port Kasiya's Eastwood district have built alpine vacation cottages in the area. The rapidly-growing resort town has been named New Mecetti, and already features a number of small businesses that cater to visiting elites. The former Consul also maintains a private villa at New Mecetti.
Kasiya Estates Winery
Despite its idyllic surroundings, Mytilene is also a bustling agricultural production centre. Kasiya Estates Vintners operates a large vineyard and winery that covers a large portion of Mytilene's agricultural reserve, growing both emerald and ruby grapes to produce their wines.
As one of the conditions of funding the purchase of Mytilene, TEAD Technologies operates an agri-food research facility there. Though some of their time is devoted to splicing novel varieties of grape for use in wine production, most of the facility conducts food science research with broader applications, such as improving the quality of the Taldryan military's field rations.
Consul's Choice Distillery
The passion project that led Erinyes to establish Mytilene was Consul's Choice Distillery. Consul's Choice produces a variety of artisanal distilled spirits, such as brandy, Socorran-style raava, and tsiraki flavoured with local botanicals.
The Retreat
Known simply as "the Retreat" among Taldryan members, Mytilene offers a combination wilderness retreat and excursion staging point for members who want to explore the Scios Range for kyber crystals, hunt game in the forested foothills, or just venture off into the wilderness for an unspecified period of time.
