Glendale
The Freecity of Glendale used to sit on the edge of the delta of the Starfall river, the only surface river on the south-east Elanoran coastline. The water here is technically drinkable, but smelly and very brackish. Native plants tend to be thick skinned or spiny, and attempts to grow more digestable vegetables have met with mixed success. Still, it was easier living here than trying to farm the surrounding desert - until Jae'Kalan V's undead horde arrived and destroyed everything.
Glendale itself usually held a population of only a couple hundred mortals, mostly escaped slaves or criminals from the Empire, old opponents of the magocracy who for whatever reason chose not to return after the events of The Great Rebuke, and their descendents. The nearby Sunguard Bay is well protected and was an ideal place for a seafarer to stop over for repairs despite the many coral reefs throughout the bay making traversing these shallows a dangerous challenge for captains unfamiliar with the area.
Oric Helst did survive his town's destruction at 0.3.7 agf, at great cost and risk. He was rescued by the Little Warriors Adventurers Guild.
