Clayard
Clayard is a clay mining town. The city is made up of brickhouses with tile roofs, made from the local clay, silt and sand (all have a grey green colour). The constantly smoking chimneys from houses and the brick and tile factory, along with the grey-green houses, makes the town look very drab. Most people in town work in the open pit mines or in the factory, and most look dirty, as if they can't get the dirt of anymore, or have given up trying. The city is devided into 4 parts by the river. At the fork the factory sits, pumping in clean water for production, and pumping out the waste into the river. The south-west part of town is where the main entrance is, and where the "trading quarters" and docks lie. There are several bars and pubs, as well as general goods stores and the hall of the craftsmans guild, where you can hire workers for construction, look for work or hire a contractor. In the north eastern part are the two worker districts, both with high density houses. In the eastern part is the inner gate and wall where the the mayor, and owner of Clayard Bricks, Romelo Crispus, lives, as well as the baracks for the city guard. Inner city and the trading quarters has acces to the water comming in from the south, and lies in behind the wind direction from the factory.
