It is a Lawful city with a strong military and prosperous trade. There are, however, insidious elements within the government, as well as without. As well, there are always threats impending from the wilds of the Western Reaches. New Heroes start out using this as their "home base" to set out on quests, return with loot and stories, and heal up to be ready for the next adventure.
