GateStone

Gatestone is populated with a variety of peoples, while some races are much rarer than others they can still be found within the city. From various Gnomes, Dwarves and Elves to elemental Genasi and various Birdfolks, Tieflings and also Verdans...
The estimate for the population of the whole city lies between 300'000 and 500'000

The city also acts as a seat of overarching power to the surrounding area in the valley
The City is run by two branches of government. The first is an anonymous collection of up to 20 individuals, referred to by many as the masked lords. There are a few mysteries about who the individuals are, or how they are selected, but certainties are that they are the same people each time they congregate to make new laws and public service announcements in the city center or to pass judgments and rulings at the grand pyramid.
The other branch of the government is the Clerical, their job is the enforcement of the law and general running of the city. The Majority of higher ranked officials are all clerics of AhSh.

The Gate Keep is heavily defended, through both magical means and numbers of people physically defending the location, fortified through solid walls and fortifications on the pyramid temple itself.
The city is far less defended, with the foremost entrance to the city being through the pyramid gate in the center there is less need to defend the city from outwards.

Due to the clerical nature of government, temples can be found throughout the city. The defining trait of the city must be the pyramid gate at the center of the city within the Gate Keep. It is where this world was first discovered from, and where all who entered have come from (be it for refuge or adventure or riches). If one is seeking planar transportation this is where they might find it, nonetheless, it is not a cheap process. The harbor is used mainly for fishing which produces the majority share of the food for the city. Being as central as it is, travel is easily accessible both northward up the valley (on the valley road) and along the coast westward (on the coast road). Travel along the southeast road leads to the Onn-Gont pass.

Guild District:
Official businesses and guild organizations usually have their quarters in this district, which led to better infrastructure such as the extra bridges being built, and more temples to facilitate the city.
Pig Bridge:
This district centers itself from the main bridge in Gatestone, connecting the east and west over the Bruinnen/Loudwater river. If you're looking for a good time then this is where you should look for the best taverns, brothels, and entertainment shows. There are fewer Temples to AhSh and his pantheon on the west side, this seems to have increased the rate of general crime, underground organizations, and business activities in the Pig Bridge district. It is also adjacent to the docks with many fishermen living here.
East Bank:
The vast majority of the population resides in the east bank, most of it is residential with the exception of the town market square and the First Temple to AhSh in the center of the city.
The Docks:
The docks serve mostly for fishing vessels but larger vessels also frequent the harbor, occasionally there are even flying ships docked.
The Gate Keep:
The Gate-Keep is built around the gate stone pyramid. It serves both as the seat of government for the clergy as well as the main gateway into this world (through the gate-stone within the pyramid). For this reason, the location is heavily defended while the rest of the city has little reason to worry about invasion. The highest court also resides here and is populated entirely by clerics.
