Stormhaven

===Description===
Founded Year 2 of the Age of Man on the newly-discovered island La Rochelle, east-of-south-east of Gregoria. This bustling city sits at the center of one of the larger shipping lanes on the Prime, with naval and airship trade going to and from Gregoria and the metropoles of the southern Free Wastes, bringing wealth, technology, and travelers to a once-quiet island town. While the old islanders grumble at the hubbub of the city, unused to the rapid growth of mercantilism and commerce under Grandian, many have taken quickly to the city's new status of trade hub of the southern world. Opportunists and merchants born to all walks of life take advantage of the wealth to be made through Stormhaven's lucrative trade-routes, and the city sees tradesfolk and merchants from across the Prime.
Having survived both an annexation attempt by a rogue faction of the Marauder Court and a series of devastating assaults by the wild Fae of the island's forested heart, the city of Stormhaven stands tall and well-defended, confident in having successfully quelled their foes.
====Notable People====
=====Alyssa Grandius Vaughn=====
Stormhaven's governess and the marquess of the island itself. Gifted with cunning and power, Alyssa Grandius Vaughn returned from arcane studies abroad to assume governorship of the island when her father Alistair died. Despite public fears at her political inexperience, opinion has swiftly shifted, as the firebrand sorceress has taken swiftly to her responsibilities and done much for Stormhaven in her first decade of rule.
=====Alexander Xilos Dumaine=====
Nearly as old as his city, the bishop of La Rochelle has lived through many of the threats to Stormhaven and its people. Well-known in the city for his approachable theology and deep love for his parish, Alexander Xilos Dumaine is a powerful and popular public figure.
====Locations====
=====Brightstack Harbor=====
Shimmering white cliffs and avenues of carven stone mark the world-famous Brightstack Harbor. Here the nobility and well-to-do merchants traveling to Stormhaven make port, far above the relative squalor of the plebeian docks below. Guarded by Grandia's finest airships, patrolled by the Governess' personal retainers, and maintained by immaculate artisans, making a landing (and how it is made) at Brightstack Harbor is a statement of one's station in the Empire.
