Suburbs of the Sister Cities
The Sister Cities of Nexus Prime and Micadonia, with their South Valley and Westmark suburbs are the joint Capital of the Free Imperia.
They are set together in a high valley in the Ered Ormal Mountains at the neck of the Jojojopo Peninsula.
High Mountains shelter them to the North and South. Bounded by great wall fort complexes at the East and West, the sister cities are separated by the Great Gate Road. It enters from the West Gate, proceeds past barracks, villages and farms to the heart of the city, just South of the Great Pyramid, past the Colossal Statues of the Founders, across the Great Bridge and into the Rendezvous Bazaar, then on out through the countryside past the Tokugawa Dominion towards the Eastern Gates.
A great tunnel connects South Town by the Order Magika complex to the South Valley Settlements at the improved head of the Great Southern River. Outside the West Gate, the Westmark Cities of St Karlon and Black Rock surround the improved headwater of the East River, which travels North before cutting back far to the East; thus the most effective way for most people to travel Eastward is via the West Gate. This has inspired the local aphorism “Taking West Gate East” for counterintuitive shortcuts.
Both as districts of the Sister Cities, and as surrounding South Valley and Westmark settlements, the major nations of the Free Imperia have their Suburb Capitals. Many also have a National Capital far away from the Sister Cities.
Dwarvia is the Three Kings of the Dwarves Suburb Capital. It is a district of Micadonia.
South Valley Suburb Capitals include:
- New Falcónvale, Capital of Arch Duke Wings.
In Westmark,
- Black Rock is the Capital of Prince Brendian Erendyl and his Mystaran Elves
