Orchestria
Orchestria is the floating island district of New Crescendo, which houses most of the High Elves. It is ruled by Conductor Dalean and Conductress Dalea. They are twins, and therefore share status as the oldest High Elves alive.
Demographics
Orchestria is almost exclusively populated with High Elves. There are some Human Servants who live in the houses of those they serve, but they typically don't leisure around town, and must go down to New Crescendo proper to do so.
Government
Orchestria is run by the High Elf Houses, and ruled by the Conductor and Conductress, Dalean and Dalea. The Government not only must run itself among the High Elves, but also take care of the mostly human inhabitants of New Crescendo proper down below, of which there's a population of around 100,000 people.
Defences
Orchestria primarily only has one defense, but it's a good one. It's a floating island a mile off the ground, and the only way in is either to fly, or through a heavily guarded teleporter in the Citadel in the center of the crater in New Crescendo. Even if people were able to somehow get through, the High Elves could just destroy the teleporter from their side before enough people could get through to make a difference.
Industry & Trade
The High Elves are capable of trading food, and some tools. But their primary export is magic. They largely export this to the Dwarves, although they don't ship it to them. The Dwarves always come to them for it. Mostly the trade is in luxury goods, or some small necessities. But overall the High Elves and New Crescendo itself is pretty self-sufficient, despite how big it is.
Infrastructure
The High Elf growers keep the crops constantly sprouting, day in and day out. It's hard work for them, but it's kept over 100,000 people fed, even in the winter, for over a millennium. Almost all of this work is done down in New Crescendo proper below.
History
Orchestria was founded over a thousand years ago, during the Quiet Age. It is believed that it was the First Conductor of New Crescendo, a man named Veris, who had the magical skill capable of levitating the entire city. He died before the end of the Quiet Age, but he is considered to be the greatest High Elf who ever lived.
Architecture
The entire city is made of trees, shaped over hundreds, sometimes over a thousand years, into what they are now. Outside they largely just look like trees, but inside they are sprawling, multi-leveled homes, beautifully decorated.
Geography
It is a floating island, a mile above New Crescendo. Orchestria itself is very flat, with mild grass growing throughout it.
Natural Resources
Orchestria is a source of almost no resources, although some of the larger houses do have some small gardens where they have personal Growers grow exotic fruits, vegetables, and grains for their personal meals.
