Great Munden

In addition to being a hub of coffee and tea exports, Great Munden has grown into a seat of magical knowledge in the world. It is home to the Munden University and its many colleges. For more than tow centuries the head of the university has also been the ruler of the city. Ancient arch-lined streets lead to shaded courtyards where students and masters learn about ancient lore and history. Stone spires capped with private studies and observatories pepper the skyline.
