Courtesy of [Dolya]

###### (6) Town Square

A large square, empty save the bulletin board in it's centre. Hot meeting spot for denizens of Samogitia.

Richest neighbourhood. Old money and nobles all live here. Named for the ring of Elm trees that is now their parkland.

###### (1) Elmring Park

Circle of elm trees that the city was erected around, legend has it that the membrane between planes is thin here.

###### (2) Elmcrown University

Home to Samogitia's great thinkers. Famed for it's expansive library.

###### (4) Seven Nations' Bank, Samogitia Branch

The Seven Nations' Bank has an active branch here in Samogitia's Elmcrown district. They have branches in Seven of the major nations on the continent and have a great deal of investing power. If you need to bank or borrow a great deal of money, you've come to the right place.

While the Seven Nations' have the capacity to do any magnitude of banking, they often will not deal with the general public. Though they favour the great houses, where enough money is involved, they have been known to make exceptions.

###### (5) Elmcrown Chapel

Elmcrown's Chapel is majestic in it's construction. It has tall marble columns and carvings that depict the deity to whom it is devoted: Terminus, God of Boundary.

###### (6) Chapman Manor

Here lives Lord Chapman and his noble family. The Chapmans are old blood, and many of their descendants sit in the more powerful positions of Samogitia.

###### (7) Dempster Manor

Here lives Lady Dempster, matriarch of the Dempster Clan. The Dempsters are involved with many of the Count's more complex undertakings. The Dempster family has passed down knowledge of logical discourse and legal jargon for generations. Many can be found in and around the University of Elmcrown.

###### (8) Norton Manor

Here lives the Lord & Lady Norton. The Nortons have amassed much money and power over the generations by gathering impressive military power and protecting the realm from invaders.

###### (9) White Manor

Here lives Lord White and his noble family. The White family primarily subsists on gains from investments and interest. Where the first coin came from has been lost with the countless generations, but each begs to spend its last.

The White family is also famed for it's love of the arts, and even had a wing in the university named for them after a substantial donation.

###### (10) Sommer Manor

Here lives the noble Sommer Family. Little is known of the Sommers, not as a result of secrecy but, as a result of their painful mediocrity. Here and there the Sommers gain coin and influence. The other great houses see no profit in competing with them and so they have remained in position for a long while.

###### (11) De Burgh Manor

Here lived Lord De Burgh and his noble family. Around a decade hence, the De Burghs left Samogitia in search of a new home to the north, in the dwarven kingdom of Etägtulon. Every so often the young masters of the De Burgh family are sent back for studies in the University. The rest of the year, however, the manor remains empty.

#### Gildsettle

Guild halls are here, newly acquired Porter’s circle annexed some Elmcrown land.

###### (1) Porter's Guild

*Main Article: Porters' Guild*

The newly constructed Porters' guild chapter is located here, in Gildsettle.

Due to the nature of the guild's activities, a whole new construction was required to accommodate them. Although the Elmcrown land that was given to the guild was not in great demand. The noblemen of the district still harbour some animosity towards the porters.

###### (2) Oakenhall

*Main Article: Oakenguard*

This is not the only Oakenhall in Verrachia, but it is by far the most influential. Tied to it is the oakentower, Bakstas Tower.

A majority of administrative and clerical work is done here, however, any who wish to enlist with the guard is welcome to do so here.

###### (3) Adventurer's Guild

*Main Article: Adventurer's Guild*

Here is the Adventurer's Guild hall of Samogitia. Stop in here for guild contracts, vendors and services.

###### (4) Fighter's Guild

*Main Article: Fighter's Guild*

Here is the Fighters Guild hall of Samogitia. This particular guild hall lays largely deserted, as many of the territories fighters are busied with the promise of riches to the north.

###### (5) Chapel Square

Chapel Square accumulates the city's clerical visitors. In the square many chapels of all faiths have been erected. It's your one-stop-shop for divine power.

###### (6) Dead Leaves Tavern

The Dead Leaves tavern is known for being a rowdy place. Gildsettle's odd assortment of characters share a mug here nightly and often talk turn very fanciful indeed. The peasantry of Samogitia find the crowd here alienating, and often opt to go to the Dirty ground tavern instead.

###### (7) Dirty Ground Tavern

The Dirty Ground Tavern, boasts a vague proximity to the haughty Elmcrown District. Few are impressed by these bona fides and find the Dead Leaves to have more engaging company. Though the company is dull here, no one has ever summoned a fire pixie during a festival celebration.

#### Nanwiht

Decent borough. Nice houses, but really nothing happens here.

#### Nafbury

Richest of three poor neighborhoods on the south-east wing. Mostly stone buildings

###### (1) Baker's Block

To cope with the massive amount of food that is required to feed a populace like that of Samogitia city, there are a great many bakers stretching that wheat as far as it will go. In Samogitia city, the bakers all operate out of a single block in Nafbury. In addition to keeping logistics as simple as possible, the block acts as a sort of Baker's Guild and allows the baker's to gain rights and other luxuries.

#### Fiddlestead

Medium-poor of the poor, this suburb has mostly wooden buildings.

#### Fiphcester

Poor of the poor. Mostly Shacks with straw rooves. Fiphcester is kept poor to encourage government spending.

### Outer Districts

###### (\*) Forgotten Ward

Buildings built outside of the current city zoning. Legally, Little Gruum would absorb the ward but pressure from Andefara's Steward has blocked the way.

The people here keep to themselves, mostly to avoid attracting too much attention. Businesses from the Forgotten Ward enjoy a rather relaxed tax status.

#### Ghostend

Said to be haunted. Buildings are kept nice on the road (the pope visits from this road) but otherwise deserted

#### Little Grumm

New, rich, neighborhood. Frogmen from Grumm purchased land here to house workers for their logistics business. Count Laikiklis allowed the Grumm settlement in exchange for a huge tax agreement. The locals of Samogitia are distrustful of their new neighbours. The three poor neighbourhoods are levelling the blame for the recent string of gruesome murders at the frogmen of Little Grumm.

###### (1) Moonspirit Imports

The import/export company to which Little Grumm owes it's existence is one Moonspirit Imports.

Originally a wealthy mushroom entrepreneur, Mr Jeremy Three-Toes founded Moonspirit in his old age. After putting together a sizeable caravan and boarding a sturdy raft, the company sailed all the way up to Samogitia. The first building was constructed on otherwise empty land from the materials salvaged from their raft. Since then Moonspirit has come to supply the city with nearly twenty percent of all luxury import goods.

###### (2) Grummtown

Grummtown is the main strip of Little Grumm, offering creature comforts such as foods, herbs, clothes and trinkets like those from back home.

###### (3) Hotel Yorba

Visitors from Grumm itself come to Samogitia to conduct business and visit the university. These visitors are seldom made welcome in the city proper and will come to Hotel Yorba to stay in good company.

Operational since the early days of Little Grumm. The carpenters of Grumm are far more used to working with the damp trunks of swamp-trees, but they make do with what is on hand.

The office here is said to be the first built, from those materials of the first raft to arrive with Moonspirit aboard.

#### Iron Row

Industrial district. Meets the city's needs where steel and iron is required.

###### (1) Armorer's Quarter

The smiths of Iron Row can be found here. They compete with one another in their out-door workshops, putting on ever-more boastful shows of flourish and showmanship in hopes of attracting another customer.
