Khin Settlement in Melior | World Anvil

Khin

The coastal capital of Belu, known for it's exports of rope, canvas, and raw barac.

The coastal capital of Belu is famous for its rope industry, and usage of its exports of rope, canvas, and raw barac (also known as Beluvian hemp) can be seen from every street of the city.  

Tourism

The most iconic structure that folks associate with Khin are the Aerial Cableways that climb up and over the steep mountains, granting access to otherwise impassable areas and opening up tourism to Zunfal, the capital of the neighbouring country Kondura.   The bustling docks are busy night and day with trade, laughter and merriment, and visitors are often surprised to see so many different markets available to peruse at any hour.  

Souvenirs

Many folk visiting the city will purchase beautiful necklaces and bracelets made from colourful strands of Beluvian hemp adorned with polished beads of brass and semi-precious stones.   Everyone who visits leaves with an adorable Beluvian jackrabbit souvenir made from rope, with two large wooden spoons for the ears (which personal messages can be engraved, burnt, or painted onto the back of).  
 

Sport

Khin is the hotspot for sporting events in Belu and hosts the world famous Beluvian X Games. This entire month of Fireturn sees extreme sporting events taking place in the heat of summer across the region, with the main competitions and events being held right in the city arena.   Some of the sports include:
  • custom built stages for roof-running with a maze of frames, bars, and ropes to climb in various feats of speed, strength and agility
  • a dedicated strongclaw challenge arena with planted trees ready for destruction, and numerous objects and fruits to crush
  • fencing pistes and combat arenas for different schools of bladework
  • and even a huge duneboard slope with a giant safety net at the end!
