City of Southridge
Southridge is the current capital of the Kingdom of Lesser Imesse, and was the former capital of all Imesse for 111 years, until Max II became High King and moved his capital back to Northridge. The city is built along the Bitterwash River near where it meets the Mill Run creek. The Castle at Southridge is very near the center of the city.

There are large communities of Halflings, Dwarves and Gnomes as well as a small but influential population of Elves.
