Koral

Once the glittering gateway to the world, Koral Port was Regalia’s most important trade hub, welcoming ships from every known continent before the Tempest Ring cut the continent off over a thousand years ago. Where once exotic goods and foreign dignitaries flowed freely into its harbor, now only local routes remain, limited to ships daring enough to skirt the coastline.   But Koral did not fade. Instead, it adapted.   Today, Koral Port is a thriving metropolis, its harbors always full, its streets always buzzing. Though the sea beyond the Tempest Ring is now impassable, Koral evolved into the beating heart of Regalia’s internal trade, connecting all major kingdoms via land and sea. From spices to steel, arcane trinkets to art, it passes through Koral.

Cityscape

Koral stretches along the crescent of Koral’s Bay, its skyline a patchwork of gleaming towers, creaking ship masts, and dome-roofed guild halls. Canals snake between merchant quarters. Crowded markets burst with color, smoke, and song. Along the cliffs, wealthy guildmasters build their villas high above the scent of salt and sweat.   Every street is shaped by the sea, the market, and the memory of distant lands long lost.

Diversity and Culture

Koral is the most culturally diverse city in Regalia. Not by design, but by fate. When the Tempest Ring sealed the world off, ships from other continents became stranded. Their passengers, human and otherwise, had no choice but to settle.   A thousand years later, their descendants have formed deep-rooted enclaves, blending customs into something wholly Koralite: markets with genasi fruit vendors, tabaxi pearl divers, halfling spice merchants, dragonborn smiths, and tiefling jewelers, all mingling in a city where no one is from here, but everyone belongs.
