Social hierarchy

Droshos has a deep-rooted caste system, unique in Veyetræll. See the Castes of the Holy City.

Defences

The walls of Droshos are the tallest in the whole Isle; they are so old and vine-ridden that they look like hedges, hence the name of the inner-guarded quarter : The Hedges.

Infrastructure

The city of Droshos has a huge plaza, where people of all castes and walks of life mingle; Trællites and Rootfolk trade goods here.

Geography

The city is located on a descending slope, intertwined with Sylgadrig's roots; there is a rocky outcrop on which the fortress is built, housing Arch-Priest Oldom Porfer.
