Akhlat

The Starting City

Akhlat is a medium size city located in the middle edge of The Red Waste in the Eastern Desert. This city is best known as being a sanctuary for people on the run. Since it is located in a relatively difficult area to reach trade is a huge deal. Most everything is imported from the nearby Metropolis of Aghrapur. The large Citadel in the center has survived for centuries against the harsh desert winds and attacks alike. It can be a treasure trove of mysterious trinkets and magic but only the Emperor can allow entry into the inner portions of the keep. This usually only occurs if you are very important or very rich and pay your way in.
Over the city is nice though due to its isolation and attraction to the sneaky sorts it isn't the safest place to visit if you look innocent.
