New Satra

==New Satra, Home of Innovation==
New Satra is home for all technological progress on Greavesoyl. The city houses many skilled inventors, alchemists and mages alike. While not as big as Seru or Rohoim New Satra (usually just called Satra) is densely populated settlement close to Seru Mountains. Some advanced technology is available even for common people for low prices, while even the simplest Satran gadgets are incredibly expensive anywhere else. The city struggles with very high crime rate. Illegal trade of technology or production and distribution of drugs are nothing however compared to few organized and powerful groups ruling over Satra from shadows, with the most dangerous of them being The Gatekeepers, secret society known to have access to Void portals and ties with Satran upper class.
===Points of Interest===
*Great Archive of Satra - Giant tower in northern section of the city and the largest manmade structure of modern Greavesoyl. Main goal of the Archive is to preserve all knowledge for future generations and to accomplish this it employs many scholars known as Archivists, many security guards and independent adventurers tasked with bringing anything with historical value back from their quests. Archive was founded over 300 years ago and it, to this day, run by mysterious entity known as The Operator.
*High City - West section is filled with high towers connected via many bridges, housing most of Satran intelligence and their laboratories.
*Lower City - Lower floors of west sections are sometimes referred to as Satran Slums. Most of workers and less known inventors live there. Lower city is the best place to get illegal weapons, spend all night drinking in bar and get mugged.
*Satran Academy - Massive academy where one can get the best education on entire Greavesoyl... as long as they can pay for this prestige school.
*Lost Halls - Unmapped and forbidden complex of underground tunnels just below the city. It's unknown when, why and who build it, but after many failed expeditions into these depth King himself banned any further exploring. Upper tunnels are often used as hiding spot for criminals, but even armed gangs never dared to descend deeper. Those who did never came back. Countless legends and ghost stories were made about these catacombs, with one quite fresh and popular about man-shaped cloud haunting the Halls.
==History==
Before the Age of Death Old Satra (back then just called Satra) was a city founded by scholars who rejected old ways of Nekaru and first started to create devices with a purpose of simplifying the use of magic. For centuries both cities competed with each other and after fall of Nekaru Satran constructs were the only hope humanity had. Soon after society was re-established in Seru an accident happened in Old Satra after which the city had to be evacuated. New Satra was build closer to the new capital. 
Since it's birth New Satra was a home for the smartest people of Greavesoyl. Engineers and mages considered (and for the most part still do to this day) themselves to be more important and their homes were build as high towers while homes of common workers were build below them, with this entire social structure slowly turning into High and Low city. Place where New Satra was build was always an unpopulated area in mountains so naturally, discovery of complex network of underground tunnels intrigued many researchers, adventurers and the rulers from Seru. Exploring these tunnels proved to be exceptionally dangerous and in the end pointless as over decades no information about the origin and purpose of these halls was discovered. What's more worrying is that nobody knows what happened with everyone who never came back from there. Entire teams of elite guards, independent adventurers and even armed battle golems just vanished without a trace while equal amount of people just came back after finding nothing for days.
The city is also known for it's Great Archive, but ironically not much is known about the origins of this place. All available records mention that person only known as The Operator was present since it's founding and to this day works as the High Archivist and the overseer of entire facility.
