Forsythe

Forsythe is one of the oldest Free Cities of the Forsmarch. It is an important trade city, lying at the fork of the Adanac River and the Urzhar River, and it has a constant flux of Uzbari bringing trade goods from the the Horse-Lord Lands through it. Despite its prominence, Forsythe is renowned as a "slow town," whose people take their time and deal with their lives day-by-day. Nonetheless, the city has expanded dramatically in the past few decades due to a bustling textile industry sponsored by the local Weavers' Guild. This growth has further attracted travelers and established an infamous "rake culture," with the Old Town District becoming a haven for various agents, charlatans, and charmers.
  The city is governed by a council which is primarily elected.
