Forsingtuna

A large city with a busy major port located on the north of the Island of Kunau. It belongs to the Kingdom of Esktria and is currently ruled by a Regent to rule in place of a Lord of Esktria until one is given ownership of this city.
All ships that come and go from/to the mainland use this port.
The City Guard is led by Aaron Highland.   One of the oldest inns in this city is The Weeping Siren. It is well known and has a good reputation.   The people that arrive here from the mainland are often advised to seek a city guide such as Stanely to make it easier for them to find the different points of interest.
One such point of interest would be the Otis bakery, formerly known as Vane bakery which is run by Otis Baker. It is famous around the city for producing some of the best baked goods on the island.
Roger Forester owns a carpentry shop here.   The city has a few smithies workshops, one of those is located close to the market district and called the Linford Smithy.   One of the wealthy traders in town is called Grimbald Mason, he has a daughter called Jade.
Another person living in the wealthy residential district is a collector of ancient objects called Darius Miller.
One of the hunters here is called Edgar Forester.     To the far west of the city are the slums. It is a place to be avoided by more wealthy folk.     In the south of the city, near the gate is a coach station where one can hire a wagon or coach.     The large cathedral of Innos is lead by Halvor Carter.   The church of Adanos in the west is lead by Feros Whiteleaf.   The church of Adanos in the east of lead by Verrall Stones.
