Port Secura
Even pirates need a place to sell their wares
"Lay hey, draw us a line,
Long way, give us some wine,
For they, drench us with brine,
New day, for us you swine..."
- A well-known verse of a halyard shanty
The Town
Port Secura is a town on the coastline of Bihulling, nestled in a natural bay. Pleasantly warm water drifts to and from the shoreline, with shipbuilders hammering away at their newest creations at the dry dock. All is not quite as it seems though, as the town is the residency of many a pirate. Port Secura is one of the main trading locations for the pirates and is one of the few with exclusive trading contracts with them. In exchange for ship repairs or the construction of new ships, the Port gets wares approximate to the value of the repairs or ship.While their ships are being repaired, it's common to see the pirates take up shop in one of the taverns in town, drinking through the night and causing a general ruckus, though they never become destructive or violent in their escapades in the taverns as a sign of respect to the town. It's not uncommon to see large, exotic pelts scattered throughout the town market, along with many treasures, such as golden place settings and even a diamond chandelier has made its way through the markets here. Despite this odd trading policy, the town is quite well off and is a popular manufacturer of elegant ships for those with enough coin to purchase one. Many townsfolk wonder why the town has had this trading policy in place with the pirates, and most have heard the rumours accusing mayor Sir Wilbur Aldred, who runs the town as a dictatorship, of being an ex-pirate. Whether these rumours are true or not is yet to be seen.
An interesting town that I'd definitely visit if I lived in your world! You gave a good impression of what the environment is like in the beginning of the article, and it is all-around giving a good overview of the town's inhabitants and economy. The article isn't too long or too short, it's exactly the right length to get across the important info. I couldn't think of anything that's missing here.
