Lakehold

Location
The Commonwealth of Aureum, High Lakes.

Physical Description
Nestled into a bit of headland cradled by two large lakes and the river flowing through them, Lakehold is a bustling, prosperous trade hub and a home to all manner of folk. The town is constantly expanding outward, pushing out into other nearby lakes on stilted platforms. Despite its metropolitan nature, the center of the city still retains its small-town charm, with public gardens and impeccably-maintained greeneries aplenty.

Inhabitants & Culture
As a city, Lakehold is about as Aureate as they come; its inhabitants come from all corners of the known realm, and bring with them their own colorful languages, customs and rituals. Generosity, mixed with a particular kind of shrewdness and good business instincts, are greatly appreciated traits amongst the population. Those blessed by Kullas Aureus with good fortune are encouraged to patronize projects that benefit all, resulting in an abundance of great public works within the city.
