Tytos

The second largest city on the Pagan Coast of Chorene, Tytos is a major city and port in Arana and the seat of the Saraceen Vizirate, ruled by Kay De Medesto. Tytos is located on the mouth of the Limon River at a junction where land and sea routes connect and has long been an important stop for traders. It is home to the world's only mage's college on the Isle of Orak, just outside the city's shoreline.
Tytos has a long history of commerce, and is still a commercial centre today, trading in the produce of the fertile plains Arana. Tytos is also a thriving industrial centre for refining and processing for export, and the presence of the mage's collage on Orak has inspired progress and culture for over 600 years.
==Culture==
Tytos claims to be the birthplace of civilization, although this is hardly the case. Even so, many Tytosi see themselves as the most civilized people. Their culture revolves around art and knowledge and fine crafts. They scorn the rest of the world.
They dress in linen and samite and loose beads, preferring to dress as little as possible in in winter to show their strength. It is high fashion for women to leave one breast exposed, a symbol of control over their bodies and the people who would gaze upon them, and for men to wear leather or iron cod pieces as a sign of status.
==Economy==
Tytos is a city of merchants because of its location as a huge crossroads in Chorene. Tytosi trade in spices, silks, and the New Ivory Guild has begun to import elephants and slaves from Ayyubid to sell in the Chorenese.
