Verida

Verida is a city in Kleumizura. It isn't often that in a desert you find someplace this large. However, Verida has managed to thrive in the Sralo Desert due to the oasis they built their city around. The city is near a region ideal for mining gold and silver. It isn't just a mining city as Kleumizura is famous for trade routes merchants from Selatres and Jascana make a must needed stop for water and shade here. This city of Verida is known for the beautiful artistry of some of its citizens. In the mines, specific rocks and minerals are ground up to be used for vibrant colors. Rugs, tapestries, clay pots, any and everything artistic is here. Spices and herbs are common to find in the bazaar and marketplace here. The city is ruled by the head of a noble family. Verida went through a terrible famine years ago, so now the noble family tries and keep a tight hold in drier months handing out rations to make sure they can make it. The people of Verida are always fearful of bandits coming through. They are in the middle of the Sralo Desert and easy prey. The city is defended by very little; it has been ransacked too many times in the past. Just a local militia is all they have. The laws in Verida are mainly enforced by a secret society of assassins who work for a big name in the underground. If one would want to make their way to Verida just follow the Banner road and you'll eventually make your way there.
