Ylraphon

A battered coastal town of layered histories where elven foundations sink beneath orcish repairs and human trade; market alleys slope down toward tidal docks cluttered with small ships, warehouses, and hidden coves used by smugglers; the Flooded Forest creeps at the east edge and ruins litter the outskirts, making Ylraphon both a haven for outcasts and a choke point for maritime trade.
