Wynnoa, is the capital and largest city of Empherias, and the third largest city in the High Kingdoms of Alaxia. The city stands mostly on the north bank of the River Ewynn in central Empherias, but has a few boroughs in the southern bank.

Main Article: LGBT Culture in Wynnoa
The first homosexual establishment in Wynnoa, and by extension Empherias, was Hancock's House of Homosexuals in 2318. Founded by Eddard Hancock, a member of Parliament from the Borough of Alexandria, the site of the establishment was on 11, Raese Street. HHH, as it was called colloquially became a hot-spot for queer members of the aristocracy and government, even sporting several visitations by Isaac Campbell during his premiership. Despite the taboo status of homosexuality at the time, the punishment for acts such as sodomy, and being homosexual weren't set or codified. Subsequently, Campbell's toleration and appreciation of HHH is believed to have effectively ended the taboo, at least in the city of Wynnoa and amongst the aristocracy. It wouldn't be until 2403 that homosexuality, for both male and female sexes became officially legal. On top of the legalisation, partnerships and marriages also became acceptable. Since the founding of HHH, which exists to this day, over a dozen homosexual nightclubs and gentlemen's clubs exist on Raese Street. The street also has a nickname, the Capital, mostly due to the majority of it being inhabited by LGBT people, which itself is referred to as the Gay Quarter.
