Sundered from us by gulfs of time and stranger dimensions dreams the ancient world of Nehwon with its towers and skulls and jewels, its swords and sorceries. Nehwon's known realms crowd about the Inner Sea: northward the green-forested fierce Land of the Eight Cities, eastward the steppe-dwelling Mingol horsemen and the desert where caravans creep from the rich Eastern Lands and the River Tilth. But southward, linked to the desert only by the Sinking Land and further warded by the Great Dike and the Mountains of Hunger, are the rich grain fields and walled cities of Lankhmar, eldest and chiefest of Nehwon's lands. Dominating the Land of Lankhmar and crouching at the silty mouth of the River Hlal in a secure corner between the grain fields, the Great Salt Marsh, and the Inner Sea is the massive-walled and mazy-alleyed metropolis of Lankhmar, thick with thieves and shaven priests, lean-framed magicians and fat-bellied merchants—Lankhmar the Imperishable, the City of the Black Toga. (From "Induction" by Fritz Leiber) (Note: For real world size reference, the Island of Lankhmaria is roughly the size of South Korea)

Moneylenders' Guild

This wealthy and influential guild is Lankhmar's equivalent of a bank. They loan money at high-interest rates, usually 10% to 30% a month. Any foreign currency can be exchanged for Lankhmarian coin or vice versa by members of this guild. The price is usually 10% of the amount being changed. The guild has an excellent working relationship with Slayer to insure regular payments on loans through the Fences' Guild. Moneylenders are thought of as being dirty, despite their wealth. This is not helped greatly by their association with the Fences' Guild and Slayer.
