Ashrow
Ashrow is a Hold of Awarth, and a key part of its industrial engine, packed with smoke-belching factories, metal foundries, and churning machinery that power the city’s manufacturing needs. Workers in Ashrow are accustomed to long shifts in hazardous conditions, laboring under a pall of perpetual smog. Ashrow is a hub of production for weapons, tools, and machinery, but its relentless industrial activity comes at a steep price—the air is toxic, and health problems are rampant among its residents
Demographics
Ashrow is a densely populated district with a mix of the working class and artists. It is home to laborers employed in Awarth’s refineries and workshops, transient performers, and members of esoteric guilds. The ward also shelters a diverse array of individuals tied to the supernatural underbelly of the city, including mystics, occultists, and members of Awarth's most infamous assassin's guild, The Conservatory.

Architecture
The architecture of Ashrow mirrors its inhabitants—weathered and functional yet strangely evocative. Narrow streets wind between buildings crusted with soot and brine, often linked by creaking iron bridges. Its heart is the Sable Orchestra, a crumbling underground theater, which acts as both a landmark and a hub for the ward's shadowy activities. Ashrow also features narrow canals and flooded sub-streets, testament to Awarth’s rising waters.
