Iþría
Desa:
Iþría, also known as Iþí or Þirí, is a major city within the Kingdom of Faron and the provincial capital of the southwestern province of Harúnnen. It's located at the mouth of the river Únnen to the east, and is an important trading hub for SE-Adynía in general, with merchants from as far as the Kingdom of Marissía to the west, Refon to the east and Gysikan to the north visiting Iþría to trade, rest and prepare for further journeys all over southern and southeastern Adynía.
Chiefs of the three dardian tribes living within Harúnnen regularly visit the city as well, both to pay tribute to the king of Faron and solve major issues amongst themselves.
The city is named after Íþres, the greatest hero in faronian mythology and, according to tradition, founder of the city.

Demographics
Iþría is the only settlement in Harúnnen where Faronians make up most of the population, though there's a significant minority of Dardians living there as well, along with a much smaller group of Marissíans.
Infrastructure
A main street connects the harbour, market and a ceremonial plaza to the governor's mansion, all surrounded by homes, workshops, gardens and narrow alleys giving Iþría a labyrinthine appearance.
Architecture
The architecture is typical for a faronian city, characterized by multistory buildings with flat roofs, brightly painted walls -sometimes featuring frescoes- and columns, connected via paved, often narrow and meandering streets, safe for the wide main street bisecting most of the city. Low stone walls, built with ashlar masonry, surround most of the city, safe for the harbour.
