The Bridge
The Bridge is the center of Syrilis. Consisting of three large bridges and their immediate surroundings, it is the biggest part of the city. It is one of the few places in Syrilis where open fire is allowed. Merchants practice their craft there and it is filled with shops of all kinds.
The biggest bridge crossing river Lance is called Merchants’ Quarter. It is a, old stone bridge where most of the shops are. The best items can be found there.
The next bridge, the Row Bridge, is for living. A lot of merchants who can’t afford to live in the Upperside live there with their apprentices. A lot of workers and scholars also live there because it is cheaper than the Upperside while still being a completely respectable place.
The third bridge is called the Wooden Way, the only real way to travel across the river and travel out of the city. It is the only wooden bridge there and the newest one. It’s monitored and guarded all day and only people with passes are allowed to cross it without a toll and in the evenings.
Apart from the bridges, there is the Bridge Square where people gather for festivities, the Nose where people can get the most delicious foods and drinks directly from the bakeries and restaurants. It’s filled with taverns, beverage shops, and stores to buy groceries from.
Riverhill Fields and Papyrus District also officially belong to the Bridge but most of the time they're counted as their own parts of the city.
