Skythos

Skythos is a and has always been a free merchant city nestled between the mountains. It was originally just a summertime marketplace for the dwarves of Bilgarharz and the few residents of the valley to trade stuff, but it eventually turneds into a small group of houses, when some merchants didn't want to make the hard travel back to to their homes (either to the dwarven city of Bilgarharz of back to their homstead somewhere further away) and the place gained its first all-year residents. After that the city has been an important trading hub for all the surrounding nations, and it has been only thanks to good strategies, well-executed plans and a little bit of luck that the city has been able to remain independent in the middle of much more important neighbours, who are after its riches.
