Jem Karteis
The bull-shaped city of Jem Karteis — which is protected by stout walls and fortifications and sits in the middle of an island surrounded by swampland — has defied conquest by princes and caliphs for centuries. The city began as a simple pirate fortress but has grown over the centuries into a bustling, but bizarre, place where the people and goods of Akados and Libynos meet. The city segregates its residents and foreign visitors with physical walls and cultural taboos. The five castes interact under strict auspices, and their interactions with outsiders are equally controlled.
