Zannie's Ford
A geographically locked city it was founded due to high value mineral deposits found in the nearby mountain range. It is known in The Hook primarily for its exports in jewelry. The primary workforce inside the city is made up of women jewelers as the city is mostly populated by women. Many women seek to leave once they have passed adulthood for marital prospects outside of the small city. This leads to a very small number of elderly women.
Demographics
The city is made up of a majority of human females. Since most young men work in the mine very few can be found within the city. The youths who remain near the city can usually be found playing any number of games during their free time but most are put to work maintaining the homestead or as apprentices at the local blacksmith or Inn. The people of the city may see gold on a regular basis but rarely trade in it. Most of the coinage goes toward taxes and living expenses.
Government
The city is primarily ruled by a mayor and day to day squabbles are left to the people to deal with. Very few laws are needed as very few are broken. When everyone knows everyone, everyone knows whos doing the wrong.
