Eal

The city of Eal (pron. Eee-All) was one of the oldest cradles of civilisation in the known world of Elanora, and the largest city on the continent, rivaled only by Jence and Tokmor in the east. Because of its position on the intersection near the Drakar and Dice rivers it was always prosperous, but Eal's prosperity was taken to new heights when the Skenar Canal linked their waterways to Tanquary as well. Eal's primary exports are food (particularly grains, rice and fruit), skilled labour, manufactured goods, and medical herbs and equipment.

Eal's temples and universities have produced some of the best healers the world has ever known outside the Adventurers Guild. Unfortunately these temples have a dark history. Many of them were built on the back of slave labour, or worse - Necromancy is not viewed with the same repulsion here, and there was a time when lines of slaves working alongside skeletal or zombified labourers hauled stone from as far north as the Pizol Mountains to Eal build sites.

During the War of the Seeds, the Conclave general, Jaspier Penrose, assassinated Empress O'Mala I of Eal and destroyed most of the imperial palace with a Blight Bomb. Since that time, the population of Eal has steadily declined. It is still a convenient merchant hub and industrial center, but the seats of power have moved elsewhere.
