Ironshire

Ironshire is an industrial city-state in every meaning of the term. While the isle the city was founded on is lacking in fertile soil or other resources necessary for self sufficiency, the massive iron deposits beneath the city offer a unique opportunity to the Tempered that live there. Mining operations and refinement techniques have been perfected over the course of many decades, resulting in Ironshire being Estaphalia's leading supplier of quality iron and steel.   Yet life in Ironshire isn't without its downsides. Its nickname "Soot City" is an apt one, as virtually every street, building and inhabitant is almost constantly covered in a layer of black residue from the massive forges on the island. The nickname given to the islanders is also appropriate, as the harsh conditions the miners and smiths endure have made them adapted to heat and polluted air. This adaptation was made possible by partnership developed between the benevolent miner barons of Ironshire and the esteemed technocrats of Heidelshire .
