Description[]

Coming in from the Southern Sea the porphyry wharves are flanked by the gleaming beacons of Thon and Thal and a million mellow lights shine from the windows of its great stone terraces behind them. Further in the streets steps weave under and around the buildings with some structures linked by bridge. The original part of the town is home to an ancient tavern and stepped alleys built from brick and resembles the nameless ruins on the far bank of Yath.

Beneath the city, a tunnel with granite gates funnels the canal inland towards the lake of Yath.

Geography[]

  • The rear half of the city reaches as far as the sloped banks of Yath.
  • Eleven days by ship from Dylath-Leen.
  • Two days' zebra-ride from Mount Ngranek.
