Port of Narmway

The Port of Narmway is an autonomous city state ruled by a council of Humans. It lies on the north-eastern coast of the continent of Celdon, close to the Gillman archipelago, and is known as "The Last Stop" by many due to its close proximity to said isles. The city itself runs along the coast, its walls encompassing around 50 square miles, and is one of the larger of the city states that lie on the Rested Coast.

The patron deity of the city is Sarenrae, and the people's devotion to her is unmatched outside of the Holy Empire. In the centre, a great temple towers over the city, walls covered in gold, the ceiling shining with the sun's light no matter the time or weather. Even their taverns are devoted servants, and The Golden Hope is reknowned all over the world for its lavish decorations and excellent Narmwayan mead.

This city is notable, not only because of its many qualities, but because of its independence. Despite its people worshipping Sarenrae it retains its independence from The Holy Empire of the Dawn, which claims to be the single authority of worship of Sarenrae in the world.
