Manath was almost totally
destroyed during the Sutherland war by the
Sessuar. Baron Bane, then a Knight of Wulfshire,
began rebuilding in
early 597. Now, as of this writing, the reconstruction has been completed. It is one of the only walled cities in
the County and has the largest port. Trade from Quentari and the Kingdom of the Sea is helping defray the massive costs of the rebuilding.
The city is divided into
"quarters." The most unusual of these is "Low
Town," the hobling part of the city. Baron Bane resettled a community of
hoblings that lost their home to the war. Rumor has it that Dame Amaris spends a good deal of time there, as
the chairs in the many taverns are more to her liking.
Low Town boasts crafthalls of every type imaginable and their merchants are always looking to strike a bargain.
On the 1st and 15th day of every
month, Squire Larry hold low court in his
capacity as Magistrate. On the
15th of every month, Baroness Frederick holds
High Court. Except for the
month of August, for she believes that no one should have to work on their
birthday.
