Aquilowna is well known as a city of skilled craftsmen noted for accurate water clocks, exotic lamps of multihued blown glass, and for its gardeners who fill the town with fruit-bearing trees and flowers from the practice of raising hot-house flowers throughout the winter. Tales tell of winter-free woods and the ever-warm waters of the Limurian River which keeps the city’s harbour ice-free year-round.
The folk here are noted for their efficiency, quiet manners and dedication to ensure that work gets properly done. Lord Reshan is an amiable, but fearless balding man who enjoys music and hearing tales of other lands and peoples. Reshan is said to be guarded by the Aquilownanine who, if the tales are to believed, possess many magical items Reshan accumulated over a very successful decade of adventuring.
