Nahar Drenon

The Nahar Drenon is a money of account, and is the standard accounting measure in use across the Halyrate and much of Athis. Its value is currently roughly equivalent to a month's wages for a skilled craftsmen, or 0.02 of a "Gold"; that is, there are 50 Nahar drenons to a stat Gold. It is also a physical coin minted in Nahar, though in this capacity it is far less widely used. 
===History===
A drenon was a standard coin of the Opulensi Empire and its successors, and imitators bearing the name sprang up around the Kbrilma Sea as Opulensi merchants came to dominate it. The Nahari Drenon was originally one of these imitators, minted after the Nahari Empire was conquered by the Savirai, and of no particular importance. That changed when, purely as a matter of coincidence, it became the preferred currency of Piriveni traders around the Kbrilma in the early years of that Order's existence. As the Piriveni trade network morphed into the Piriveni finance network, the Order continued to keep records in Nahar drenon, even in areas where it did not circulate, and since most large sums of money moved through Piriven at one point or an other, it became a standard unit of account in most areas where they operated.
