Gar Loren
Gar Loren
Capital city of the Fubarnii Empire and home to Emperor Arudor. Also, the fubarnii clan who live in that province.
Our fair city has been built upon ingenuity and integrity. From the first stones laid and tunnels dug, this city has grown, fuelled with the sweat and toil of countless workers and engineers, each building upon what has come before. I look upon the smog and crumbling stonework with immense pride, knowing from whence it has grown. And into this most incredible creation step our nobility, wealthy fubarnii born to luxury and spending their lives and their limited intellects dreaming up ever more ridiculous fashions or worrying how they might best their pompous peers. It is a great concern that it is these nobles that we trust to guide our Emperor during such difficult times.
(Beirigo Janiir, Orator)
Within the walls of Gar Loren, the wealthiest fubarnii appear to live a pampered existence, but the courts of the Emperor are a dangerous place. Fortunes are won or lost through complex games of politics, so every Noble spends his life fighting to maintain or grow that which he was born with. The war with Delgon has shaken the city to its core and the Nobles are jostling for position to capitalise wherever they can. Occasionally the Nobles must leave the city and brave the world outside their elegant courts. The Nobles look to hire the best guards that money can buy and the noble military and lands colleges rival the training given to the best of the knightly orders. Guards trained within these colleges deserve their reputation as dangerous fighters, even if their masters will often insist they wear uniforms chosen more for now their looks than for any practical reasons.
