Aquame (Total War)

Aquame is a Hylian village in Hyrule Field, on the northern shore of Lake Aquame and along the Zora River, approximately 20 miles west of Gundrumether.

History
The area around which Aquame would eventually be built was already host to a civilization before the arrival of Akkalans, either Kovalian or Mazura. Little of the original settlement remained into the Age of Legend, with the exception of a large Colisseum. Eventually, the settlement either died out on its own or saw its inhabitants pushed out by the migrating Akkalans.

Aquame was later rediscovered by Tribes of Akkala as they emigrated from Arcadia. Like other Akkalan settlements, it began as a sheltered community, a central Noble manor or castle home to one of the larger Houses, surrounded by rural villages governed by their bannermen.

During the reign of King Rhogim, a fortified bridge which spans the Zora River was constructed. House Namadi holds both the bridge and the decaying Colisseum. In more modern times, frequent raids by the Gerudo have led to mixed marriages among the population, earning ire from both sides of the border. Of note among natives are Auru, as well as Kaam Ya'tak, who leads minute Sheikah presence in Aquame.
