Eduna

Eduna is a small village and the very last settlement that one can stop to grab supplies and water before heading out into the Jha'Mon Desert.

Demographics

The majority of Eduna citizens are human however due to most of the affluent members influence there is a notable subpopulation of tabaxi, tieflings, and sentient constructs.

Government

Mayor Al-Varghese is in charge of running the city by appointment from Vizier Arroh Diamondarm. It is his charge to make sure the enforcement and understanding of the law is properly interpreted and that the growth, health, and local taxes for the village is taken care of.
Mayor Al-Varghese has a small village council of the most affluent and influential members who help him stay informed and make the best decisions for the health of the village. These members include: Mitten Patel, the owner of the Last Sand Tavern; Yoddha Varun, the captain of the guard; Vriya Pujaree, the head priest of the local temple of Shemesh; Drannith Shaan, the overseer of the docks; Jhadeem Al-Varghese, overseer of the mines and captain for The Miner's Fortune.

Defences

Eduna is under the protection of a small local guard. It unfortunately does not have much in the form of defensive walls or formal military and is dependent on aid from Retban should such a need arise.

Industry & Trade

Most of the natives to Eduna are miners as the local cliffs contain shifting pockets to the Plane of Earth which when the pockets shift just right can temporarily yield untold treasures of jewels and normally inaccessible ores. Outside of mining most to the locals depend on outgoing or incoming travelers in need of water or service to get by.

Infrastructure

Eduna is a simple village on the edge of the desert and does not have much to offer outside of it docks.

History

Eduna has not existed long to have much history as before it was declared an official settlement and given funding by The Council to build it up it was a hamlet barely holding on.

Points of interest

The Last Sand Tavern and the Temple of Shemesh are just about the only real place of interest within the entire village as the Mayor tends to keep his doors closed unless it's for official business and nothing of any real grandiose nature exist within the city.

Geography

Eduna being located far further into the desert than most other settlements would be willing to be means that it has no access to fresh water outside of reliance on the local clergy, mystics, and the storage of rare rainfall. There are cliffs and mines located about a two hour trip by sand boat but it would be accurate to say Eduna is surrounded by desert on all sides.

Climate

Eduna because of it's location is at the mercy of the desert. During the best times of the year the village is a little hot, during the worst times of the year the village is struggling against sandstorms and blazing hot weather.
