Terensing
There are shallow rivers that act as streets. Quiet gondolas drift through the serene cool, humid city, penetrated by the slow picking of a lute and the gentle laps of water.
Demographics
Predominantly an elvish civilization.
Government
A counsil is voted in by the people, but it is normally made up of elders. The voting is done every 50 years.
Industry & Trade
The city is very fashion-oriented. Beautiful clothing, rugs, tapestries, and other textiles are their main trades. Artisans and craftsmen thrive in this city that provides all of Airth with intricate and stunning creations.
Infrastructure
Lots of watermills, rivers and bridges.
Guilds and Factions
One of the most influential factions is the Shimmersilk guild.
History
The Shimme family is one of the founding families whose success lies in their discovery of the Sulera and the ability to weave silk from them.
Tourism
People often visit for a unique and tranquil getaway. There's a good deal of gondola tours, and people visit for the shopping and relaxation.
Architecture
Nearly every structure is built with the water in mind. Nearly all buildings have small docks and boats, the ones that don't are the few in a courtyard.
Geography
It has a fairly slim Breech, with most structures in the ground level. There's lots of cave systems containing Sutera, among other creatures.
Climate
On the cooler side, the softly flowing rivers hold a cooler temperature than most expect.
Natural Resources
The Glowing Caves house a thriving colony of Sutera, little plant creatures that produce a fine, lustrous substance that is woven into shimmersilk. The Bersinar (the raw material before it is woven into the Shimmersilk strands) before it is harvested, is attached to cave walls and glows a soft blue. The caves themselves are dark, even while harvesting, as light harms the Sutera.
