Elektivoud

Elektivoud is the of the Duchy of Arensloz in Izeryk. The city is notable for being situated in Izeryk's only elektia forest where massive coniferous trees are capable of carrying electric current. This is the result of the forest growing over a large deposit of elektia and evolving over hundreds of thousands of years to use the energy from elektia in a process known as elektosynthesis. Although the city has expanded outwards from the forest with more conventional construction, a portion of the city is still built around these trees which partially act as a power source in-situ and part of the power grid. In other parts of the city, new buildings are constructed using wood from the Elektivoud forest, using traditional techniques to integrate the current-carrying wood into the overall design architecture. Elektivoud is unique in Izeryk for its heavy use of wood-based architecture, the abundance of treehouses, and lighting standards that are compatible with the elektic trees. The entire area encompassing Elektivoud has been declared a protected plot by the Izeryker government due to its uniqueness and the population's partial reliance on the ecosystem, resulting in a ban on elektia mining in the Duchy of Arensloz.
