Cynopolis

A City of Balance, Judgement, Death and Life

Crown Jewel of the land of Nezb, and seat of the man know as The Judge; a city of law and order, center of worship for the Bee Keeper, a resting place for the dead, and a place of life and renewal. Currently under the stewardship of Thoth, The Judge's second in matters of state, and Elpis, The Judge's first born daughter and weaver of fate.

As one of the Largest cities on Marth it is diverse providing many sights, sounds, and services found nowhere else. The south-western water quadrant is home to trade and commerce. The south-eastern wind quadrant is home to residences. The north-eastern Fire quadrant is home to all things war and conflict; with mercenary and adventurers guilds, as well as combat training and gladiatorial spectacles. The north-western earth quadrant is dedicated to learning, libraries, research and development; with engineering and smiting closest to the fire district and academies closest to the water district. The center district of the Scales houses the Necropolis, Apiaries (temples) of the Bee Keeper, Halls of Judgement and massive (relatively young) Tree-of-Life in the central most Pyramid.

Despite the emphasis on order and balance it can be dangerous to the unwary; Drones, Nihilistic Zealots to the Bee Keeper, skulk around the outskirts and under belly of the city, killing in the name of unbridled pointless death, while the school of The Sweeping Glaive fulfills the will of its enigmatic founder Rottag Kho.
