Inion
As you approach the capital city, the first thing you notice is the tall walls that surround the entirety of the city. The smooth alabaster walls dotted with towers with three gates; one to the east, one to the north and one to the west. Just inside the walls are the poorer districts and as you head in you see more buildings made of this alabaster stone. The three roads lead to a market square situated on the harbour, and this overlooks the citadel, which is a large building made of this alabaster stone, that rises above the rest of the city, with walls surrounding it also.
Inion is the new capital of Olcari and as such Inion has become the heart of politics, business, and education on the continent. The only way in and out of the city (or the districts) is to pass through heavily patrolled gates.
The diversity of the populace has spurred innovation throughout the city and built a booming economy that has caused Inion to be one of the major trade hubs in the world. Inion is not immune to prejudices or bigotry. While the ruler Archduchess Enoria is well-respected, well-regarded, and well-liked, there has been some criticism about her policies being too inclusive.
Inion is spilt into nine different districts within the city and three additional pseudo-districts outside the city.
