Veyrathis

Veyrathis sprawls where the Silver River bends sharply, its docks crowded with merchant vessels and fishing boats beneath tall, whitewashed towers. The city thrives as a melting pot of races and cultures, its marketplaces humming day and night. Lantern-lit bridges arc over canals, and shadowy alleyways hide secrets older than the city walls. Music and market cries blend with the river’s song, making it a lively, unpredictable haven for explorers, traders, and schemers.
