Wayrest

One of the largest and most populated cities in the Realm, Wayrest serves as a hub of commerce between the numerous powers of the continent. Located at the intersection of the five main roads in the Realm, the city has a true melting pot of cultures.
Wayrest, like many other cities in the Realm, is an independent city-state that is ruled by a Lord-Mayor. Unlike many other city-states, this position is largely symbolic, as the true power of the city comes from the trade overseers that represent the powers of the Realm. There are numerous districts of the city that house the respective population of each kingdom and city, and even provide their own law enforcement. Up until the events of the The Djeran Expansion War , the city's inhabitants played nicely most of the time. After Wayrest became the first to fall to the Golden Host, however, there has been a growing resentment of Djeran travelers in the city.
