Vathalia
Vathalia is Imenia’s shield upon the waters, a city where rivers are the lifeblood and boats are born with teeth. Positioned at the convergence of two major rivers that wind through the heart of the Republic, Vathalia commands the nation's most vital inland trade arteries. While Syroli dominates land warfare, Vathalia ensures supremacy across every current and channel, mastering guerrilla tactics, swift deployment, and precise strikes from the water.
It is a city of tides and tactics, where sleek rivercraft crowd the banks and every citizen knows the difference between a scout-raft and a war-galley. The riverfolk here are raised to read water like language, and to fight like it's the only one that matters.

Industry & Trade
Vathalia thrives on military contracts, but also acts as a key trade facilitator between provinces. Its longshore guilds, ferry operators, and tide-hallers form a bustling logistical network. The Guild of Riverbinders, specialists in fast water travel and shipcraft, has risen to quiet prominence here.
Fishing, freshwater pearl diving, and minor enchantment weaving also contribute to the economy, though all serve the larger machinery of the Republic’s inland defense.
