Akone

Located on the southeastern coast of Dece, the city of Akone is home to roughly 1,700 people. The city has been ruled by a queen since its founding in honor of Lasthena. A council of elders helps advise the queen along with the current polemarchos. When not being attacked by pirates, the citizens of Akone lead simple lives as farmers, fishers, hunters, tanners, stonesmiths, and merchants. They have a mixed economy of barter and currency, with bartering being primarily reserved for the citizens. The city exports grain, fish, wild game, and animal hides. The game meat of Dece is a delicacy in Meletis and other nearby islands. Along with worshiping Lasthena the citizens worship Nylea, god of the hunt, and Thassa, god of the sea. A large statue overlooking a temple is dedicated to Thassa near the docks while an equally large statue of Nylea with an altar at her feet is located on the road north of the city’s entrance.
