Esasne (Kyawcenni: ဝဲစစ်နဲ esasne [ˈe.sas.nɛ]), formerly Mawjyaw (Kyawcenni: မဝ်ဓြဝ် mawjyaw [ˈmaʊ̯.dʒjaʊ̯]), officially Yolyu Esasne “Town of Xhesas”, is a village in Šingcun which has been inhabited by villagers before the Kyawcenni colonization of the territory in February 2024. After the Mawjyaw Massacre, it was renamed to Esasne in honor of Xhesas, who has saved the remaining three villagers from being murdered by the attacking pillager army. After that, Namnak has repopulated the village using a villager breeder.
