Capital of Aruhlia · At the meeting of rivers
Concordia Crownseat
Rivers unite. Lands endure. People prosper.
A crossroads of the realm
Where rivers, roads, peoples, and power meet.
Concordia is built on elevated terraces above the confluence of the River Ardan and River Selwyn. The Crownseat is both seat of government and a working river city: bridges carry citizens between its banks while quays, ships, markets, courts, archives, temples, gardens, and guilds keep Aruhlia connected.
The Royal Terrace
The palace of House Valthorne rises above the confluence with the Crown Council, royal courts, Great Archive, ministries, embassies, Seven Temples, noble quarter, and Crown gardens.
The Western Bank
Guilds, warehouses, markets, quays, and merchant compounds receive the River Selwyn and the trade roads from the western lands.
The Eastern Districts
Craft, scholarship, civic life, and the eastern approaches spread beyond the terraces toward the River Ardan and the wider realms.
