Ochiale

A large town at the western edge of the Kingdom of Massalia. A popular destination for historians and scholars, as it is built up near ruins of what are thought to be a grand Edyllan palace. It also sees a great deal of traffic from bold explorers and adventurers (though not typically wise ones) headed to Ensis Trac or the Plains of Sussurr.

Demographics

While still primarily populated by humans, Ochiale has a large population of Gnomish scholars and Half-Orc guides for hire, as well as a handful of members of other races.

Defences

A great keep was constructed here to protect the surrounding farmers and townspeople from raiding orc parties. However, as the town has seen growth due to adventuring tourism, the keep is no longer large enough to protect the entire population in case of a raid. The townfolk and local farmers clamor for a city wall, but the current lord of the keep is confident in the ability (and willingness) of the adventuring population to defend the city from threats.

Architecture

Buildings are primarily constructed of wood from the surrounding forests and stone from the mountains to the north.
