Saranl

twenty miles from the mouth of the keathai river lies the great city of saranl, a sprawling, marshy collection of sinking stone buildings and ramshackle stilthomes serving as the capital of the kingdom of salnarae. here there are 1,000,000 people crammed into the great saranl sprawl, arrayed outside the walls that form the drained wards; all of this is collectively second only to tyet in population and perhaps in importance.
despite it being the capital of salnarae, much of saranl isn't under their control because an old stone wall built by the lerhans divides saranl into two halves. the drained wards inside the wall are directly ruled by the salnari government and home to the upper classes, while the Reedmire swamp is a lawless shanty town run by the Phula Kranta, a ruthless crime syndicate that controls the salnari spice trade.

Demographics

those within the city walls inside the drained wards are generally of the salnari nobility, or they're well-off merchants and craftsmen working there. while in Reedmire, most people scrap by working in the spice fields, farming charream or yullaeos under the watchful eyes of phula kranta enforcers, who then 'buy' the harvest at rock-bottom prices and sell it elsewhere. thus, outside the city walls, crime and poverty are rampant while the nobility within care little.
