Alaman, City of Coin

As the coast glistened underneath the morning sun, the beams of light shone on a city where everyone makes their marks. Red-shingled roofs climb the rising hills along trade shops and warehouses, as well as various markets and investment companies rise up from ground. It is a city that is a truly one of a kind.
Alaman is a place that holds Telnoth's greatest resource in recent years; financial backing. If it were not for Alaman's advisement of the financial accounts of certain kingdoms, these factions would have gone into debt years ago. However, it took a war of independance from the Linemell Empire to make the great city of the Coast that exists today.
Governed by a elite chosen few known as The Gold Crowns of Alaman, the city's hierarchy is based off of wealth and marital status rather than royal value. As such, those who worship Mask, The Chain of Hearts often gain a position of power within the city, as his boons reward those willing to dare.
Resting within the city are also an assortment of buildings not often found in other locations. Alaman is the first kingdom to fully integrate airship technology into their kingdom, and thus have a airship depot right outside of their walls. Within their stone fortifications, investment companies like Sir Dracon's Logistics help control information of the markets to the people of Alaman.
