Capital of the Agosto Empire.
Demographics
Mostly humans but a few halflings who work the land, dwarfs and gnomes. The city has a large spread of wealth from the derelict buildings and daily murders in the sword district to the noble district complete with lavish buildings with the occasional gold leafed wooden beams. The two polar oposites of wealth are filled in the middle by other districts where mist of the non-human races live. The sword and noble districts are almost completely filled with humans. Halflings do most of the agriculture work while other professions are carried out between the other races.
