A small town it is run by a chosen representative who keeps the town following the laws of the empire. Every 5 years the town holds a meeting to determine who will represent them at the Island summit that gathers the heads of each town on the island in order to discuss their issues and report them to the empire.

Defences

The town seems to be protected by something though nobody knows what and that protection spreads all the way across the marsh to its sister city. This protection causes nearly all the undead that attempt to cross into the city to crumble to dust. The few that get through are easily taken out by the village guard.

Industry & Trade

Ahn'Dahl makes a lot of its money through making wines and leathers. Secondary trades include fishing and coal mining. A smaller percentage of its trade comes from weaving and tool creation

Infrastructure

Houses built on platforms and stilts, pathways that lead up the larger trees that border the marsh to large treehouses built atop them, the town takes advantage of vertical and horizontal space. A large winery sits on the edge of town closest the marsh near large water filtration housings. Pontoon boats with magical sources for movement sit at the docks for those who make their living in the marsh.

Guilds and Factions
