Algattan Settlement in World of Naru | World Anvil

Algattan

Tucked away in an isolated pocket, the town of Algattan and a handful of villages are separated from the rest of Talia by a cluster of mountains. In addition to being a little out of the way, this area has a much cooler climate throughout the year thanks to ice-cold currents from Kartomb to the northwest. Summers are mild while winters often experience heavy snowfall adding to the challenges of living here but despite all of this, the locals manage to stay safe, secure and productive year round.   Agriculture specialists have perfected the growth of several unique crops that thrive in this environment, many of which are sought after in faraway regions allowing the town to charge a premium for their goods. These ingredients make up most of the town's income and the majority of residents work in fields related to harvesting, preparing and exporting these goods.   Algattan is under the charge of Baroness Elara Ironheart who manages everything of behalf of King Cazir. She has been in command since 3882 AC, is incredibly passionate about farming and often leads the charge of growing experimental variations of crops.  

Points of Interest

Iceweaver Bridge

This is a collection of small bridges that connect various small landforms just off the coast that are used for cultivating many types of seaweed and shellfish. Specialised networks of nets are hung from the bridges to seal off the area from the predators and harsh waves of the sea.

Northwind Docks

Specialised boats operate infrequent services between Algattan and Scarminton through the ice-ridden waters of the Ikara Passage. Despite the regions having many conflicts and disagreements, this trade route is vital for both parties' economies.

Xavid Canal

This canal connects the two rivers that flow on either side of town to provide a constant source of fresh drinking water for the townsfolk. Special water-fed runs have been created to allow produce that doesn't do well in salty water or soil to flourish, adding much-needed variety to daily diest.
