Anquil and Nova stand as the two longest standing ports into the continent. Fulten stands a fair way south of Nova and is the midway stop for both HexelBreath and Wiltshore. Beyond the west of HexelBreath lies Mother's Mill, a small farm stead and a inhospitable land. The newest city, Helenfort lies just north of Mother's Mill just past Paladins Pass.
