Fogport
The city of Fogport stands on the north east coast of Myruthea at the eastern end of the Old Pale Empire Road. It is currently a member of the Alchemical Alliance.
Industry & Trade
There is an extensive and carefully managed timber trade in the forested hills to the north and west of Fogport. Logging and woodworking are the most important local economic activities. The city is home to a small number of fishing vessels, although these do not operate on anything like the scale of better known fleets further south, in cities such as Nephatar. Last but not least, Fogport serves as an important link between the mainland and Klokken Isle, benefiting from trade with Vrandakan and its geographical position at the eastern end of the Old Pale Empire Road, to which, in fact, it owes its foundation.
History
The city grew up around the terminus of the Old Pale Empire Road, a location chosen as a hub for northern logging and hunting interests and with good deep water docks that only rarely froze in the coldest winters. It was granted a charter as a full city within a few years of the completion of the road itself.
Points of interest
The Hill Church overlooking the main harbour is the largest public space with vaulting shadowed ceilings and wonderful accoustics which serves the worship of the Way of the Harmonic Path very well.
The Great Salt Hall is the centre of local government, always open for visitors to observe proceedings.
