Sallaly (sal-al-e)
Sallaly is a recent town who was built by the Seventh Order of the Seven Queens to expand their control further south and expand their river trade and transport all the way to the Shieldhead Lake.
The population of the city belies it's size. The city is made up of small residential clumps and wide open spaces, which are filled by caravans moving in and out of the kingdom. The citizens fill in support roles in fishing the lake, maintaining restaurants and other permanent businesses, and in operating the platform boats which transport caravans downstream to River's Reach, Halmire, and New Marys
Government
It is ruled by the Seventh Order of the Seven Queens which aims to manage the fishing business and ensures that all of the citizens are able to fairly benefit from the caravans passing through.
Defences
The city is partially walled. Outsiders are easily able to enter the city, but in order to progress further into the Kingdom of Leein, they must pass through checkpoints and thick walls. It's status as a free trade city does much in deterring invaders. And the heavy mercenary presence keeps bandits at bay.
Industry & Trade
Sallaly produces fish and other food and materials that can be recovered from LAKE, which it trades in excess to the rest of the Kingdom of Leein and outwards. It receives many caravans which take advantage of the platform boats to quickly and easily move downriver into the heart of the kingdom.
Infrastructure
Watermills, sewers, roads, shipyard, hospitals, stables
Guilds and Factions
Banner Tall is a mercenary guild that has made a name for themselves for venturing out into the Windfall for weeks at a time. They return with scraps of Yigerian craftsmanship which is sold at auction.
Saltwater Company is a merchants group that funds and maintains the platform boats. They moved their headquarters to Sallaly to push Leein to expand further north, increasing their power and wealth as trade increases along Vorma.
