The Coping
The Coping is the highest point of Din'Lux and is located on the northeast side of the city. The centerpiece of this borough is the Great Lighthouse. Every building and residence in the Coping was built with their doors facing the lighthouse and are all roofed with the same blue clay called azurite. Noble's Walk is the residential area in the Coping that is home to the most wealthy and powerful. The street here is wide and well-kept and the great stone manors are even larger than they seem, hiding a complex of tunnels that burrow beneath them. Residents here have access to the walkway on the outer wall of Din'Lux, where they can stroll and take in the view of the hills and fields surrounding the city. The residents here are mostly, but not exclusively, elven. Beacon Terrace, in the center of the Coping, is where many of the city's most important public buildings can be found. The Great Lighthouse stands here along with maintenance buildings where the Flame Keepers work and reside, as well as City Hall, where the Council meets to discuss important city matters. The barracks for the elite guards of the city can also be found here. The area is decorated with fountains, statues, and well-tended landscaping. The western-most side of the Coping is known as Merchant's Peak, where you can find the city's most illustrious and powerful businesses and storefronts. Merchant Gate allows access to Merchant's Peak from the Nests at a cost of 3 coin per wagon.
