Westmoor

The City of Westmoor was a trade city located on mainland Deurlyth. As its name indicates, it lies against the west coast of mainland Deurlyth. Its ruins are being used as the site of the newly-planned city of Westhaven, a project being lead by Corvan Vangrave under the oversight of Count Tel'Grov.
==History==
The City of Westmoor was founded in 3E 1175 by Count Alistair Dellacroix , appointed as count by King Relmus Sarethi. The central guild hall of the city was built upon the ruins of the traitorous city of Bylin, where it was originally more of a headquarters of Alistair Dellacroix's business and government pursuits. Eventually, a city would grow around it, and it would grow to become the second largest city in Deurlyth at its peak. The city persisted as a center of trade for some time under Count Alistair Dellacroix and Viscount Tel'Grov. 
In the year of 1181, the city was besieged by a large host of the Wither army, who were eventually repelled after a long, hard-fought battle. However, during the battle, a large and mysterious crystal appeared in the middle of the city's main square. It seemed to have a repellent effect on the Wither themselves. 
Shortly after the crisis, Alistair Dellacroix retired from his position and Tel'Grov was appointed as Count. He served until 1185 with his Viscount being Lucas Wakefield. 
==Geography==
As the name indicates, the county of Westmoor lies on the west coast of mainland Deurlyth . It is home to rolling hills, ridges, and sparse forests.
==Government==
Most day-to-day activities within the city were traditionally handled by the Viscount, whereas the Count often dealt with the crown directly.
===Law===
In terms of law, the city operates under a special trial system. If someone is accused of a crime within the county, it can be brought to court. The trial is then overseen by either the magister, commander of the militia, and the viscount together, or the count alone. The trial is conducted under the laws of Novania and additional laws imposed by the county of Westmoor.
As a county centered around commerce and coin, fines tend to be more prevalent punishments above anything else.
===Baronies===
The county of Westmoor holds seven baronies:
*Winston - 
*Dunford - Held by Ernst Brenner
*Whiteridge
*Blackridge
*Northcrest - Held by Alistair Dellacroix
*Southcrest
*Oakheart
==Economy==
Westmoor is a center of wealth and economic prosperity in Deurlyth, mainly due to its being the seat of the merchant's guild. The city mostly deals in international trade under Count Alistair, making use of existing tensions between nations. Westmoor acts as a third party in trade between nations who might not normally trade with each other.
