Cai Shaan
A city extending along a peninsula in Eaine's far north, Shaan is the main trading port of Eaine and the location of the island's only wizarding school in the high elven tradition. Beyond the city of Shaan, Cai's territory extends through the northern forest almost as far as Evertemple. It has a smaller land area but larger population than the territory of Ur further south.
There are no official trade links between Varentar and Cai, as Na monopolises trade with the former.
Demographics
Wood elves are the majority race in Cai Shaan, followed by sea elves and humans. However, people of all kinds can be found throughout the city- from triton and halflings, to half-elves, aasimar and tieflings.
Defences
The city is flanked by the ocean on three sides with a tall stone wall protecting the fourth, landward-facing side. Ballistas are mounted above the main gates.
Guilds and Factions
The Institute of the Third Eye- wizards. Specialise in divination magic, and to a lesser degree enchantment and illusion. The head of the institute, Cai'a Solstriana/the Master of Arcana, has significant political weight as one of the lord's senior advisers. Another of his advisers, Cai'a Aviina, also belongs to the institute.
