Sanwen

A small town near the base of the Redwind Mountains which make up the northern border of Shudan. The town developed around a prominent hot spring in the area, which was referred to by the locals as Onsen no San (Hot Spring of the Mountain in Shudani). Those who arrived from the Jade Empire pronounced it closer to Sanosan, which they combined with wenquan (the Liquon word for hot spring) to form Sanosan Wenquan in reference to the hot spring itself. As the town grew around it, they reffered to it as Anosanwenquan, then Sanwenquan, and eventually Sanwen.
The town is not as popular as other tourist destinations in Hiro-On, mostly due to the close proximity to the Redwind, but it still houses nearly 600 residents.

Government

Nionsen is part of the Northern Province and Hiro-On, both of which are largely overseen by the Izumi Family. The current Regent of Sanwen is Chitose Izumi.

Military

The Peace Force is the name of the larger police group throughout Hiro-On, and there is a local branch in Sanwen. The chief of this branch, like the chiefs of all branches, is appointed by the Izumi family. They don't report to the Izumis directly, but they are funded by the Izumis and the chief can be replaced if the Peace Force doesn't act in accordance with the Izumi family's wishes.
The Redwind Wardens specialize in patrolling the Redwind Mountains, all the way from origin of the Nigawa to the western edge of The Fade. They are especially concentrated near Sanwen and their outpost Hirotani to the north west.
