Sastan Trade Union
Sasto - a bustling free city led by forthright but shrewd guilds, at the mouth of the Slagaid river, just out of Ffynhonnelwig's immediate grasp. This town is home to skilled craftsmen, using the scraps of fine materials from Ffynhonnelwig; merchants, profiting heavily off the flow of goods through the port; adventurers, glad to hear news from a location they can set forth from quickly; and all manner of others - supporting the hardy business and working like decent folk.
Structure
The master of the town, Mayor Priomhalt Guthrie, organizes and administrates all the goings-on by the lower guilds - Tavern, Trail, and Trade.
Master of the Tavern Guild, Skali, keeps tabs and holds dominion on all the lodging, food, and service industries in town. The Tavern Guild also aids and prepares a warm welcome for those wishing to make A'Chiad their permanent home.
Master of the Trail Guild, Krija, manages the outskirts of town - hunters and fishermen, scavengers and harvesters, and also helps more local adventurers arrange guides and quests.
Master of the Trade Guild, Rild, administers the far-reaching locals, as well as those just passing through. Due to their nature, the Trade Guild also holds significant clout over the town guard, as many were once adventurers or hired help with the town's merchants.
Many of the local industries have their own, more tightly-knit management; however, all members and masters of minor guilds report to one of the three primary guildmasters, who each in turn report to the Mayor. Guildmasters are always elected to their position by members of their guild, while the mayor is chosen by the three primary guildmasters - usually one of their own. However, these elections are for a lifetime appointment.
Trade & Transport
Mainly water-based trade. Occasional shipments head up the road through Ffynhonnelwig to Hraeddr and take the ferry across to Stjori.

Major Exports
Finely-crafted wares
Some high-quality raw materials (woods, fibers, enchanted waters, magical beast parts) from Ffynhonnelwig
Major Imports
Plant-based food (grains, mostly) and livestock products are cheaper to get imported than locally-sourced due to the inherent danger in imposing on Ffynhonnelwig.
