City of Eralon

The City of Eralon is the first city founded on Tarkan, and still remains one of the largest and richest cities on the continent. It is a bustling bastion of trade, commerce, and prosperity, and has an enormous population of about 130,000 people. 
Eralon is broken up into six wards: the dock ward, the shop ward, the craft ward, the nobles ward, the slums, and the keep. The dock ward is where goods are brought and unloaded into warehouses to be shipped to the craft ward. There they are made into finished goods, before being brought into the shop ward and sold. The slums are where the homeless and poor live, and it tends to be quite dangerous. The keep houses the governer and city officials.
Eralon is ruled by a city governor, currently Governer Terrowan, who makes the major decisions for the city. A council oversees city affairs, made up of 9 members elected by landowning citizens. This is intended to keep the governer from having autocratic power. One landowning citizen elected by the citizenry from each ward, except the slums, represents the interests of their ward to the governor. This is intended to keep the people from enacting mob rule.
The Watch of Eralon is the city's official police force, and it operates a barracks in every ward, with a jailhouse in the slums. The Watch numbers about 3,000, and is responsible for maintaining order in the city. They are surprisingly effective, due in part to the general emphasis placed on law and order by the citizenry; most citizens actviely oppose crime.
