Leknaat

*Writer: Runic Traveler*

## Description

Many people can claim to be a pirate, but a strict few crews are touched with the blessings of insightful dreams. Those that are marked with the sign of the dreamer are found within the city-state of Leknaat.

## System of Rule

The city-state is run by an oligarchy consisting of eight district representatives (two per district) that report to the senate of Athena. These eight representatives are the captains of the most prominent crews in the area.

## Geography

Located on the Eastern shore of Athena, this city-state is divided into four districts that are lined with cobblestone roads that lead to many shops and houses. Any open field is covered in poppies and daffodils while cliff roses hug at the sides of cliffs towards the beach and port areas. Towards the Western side of the city, oak and cypress mark the city line.

### Districts

Each district, named after a natural element, has its own purpose. Those of certain blessings tend to go to certain districts.

The Water District, the first to see if you happen to be making your way to Leknaat by sea, is full of citizens who are influenced by emotionally charged, intuitive dreams and nightmares. Those who are not directly a part of a crew are made into therapists, actors, con-men, and oracles. Key locations in this district are the docks, the theater, and Ekklisía, the temple of Kalaketra.

The Fire District is a downtown area that curves around the North of the Air District. Here are the citizens who were influenced by imaginative dreams of passion and ambition, which you can see in the work they do. Artists have their own alleyway right next to the stores of the shopping mall. Beware of pickpockets and scams; this area is full of thieves and art forgeries. On the other hand, those who feel like they have luck on their side may test it at the luxurious casino. Whether one is lucky or willing enough, there is a chance for them to make some coin here.

Those who seek answers to the world’s most troubling questions are drawn to The Earth District, another curving area to the South of the Air District. Citizens who are influenced by logical dreams that are grounded to reality are urged to attend the college in the area, where they have access to multiple educational resources and dorms right on site. Close by the college is a research facility used by the top students and most focused researchers in the area. For casual research, or leisurely reading, other citizens may go to the public library that is open to all who may want to use it.

In the center of the Earth and Fire districts is the home of the legal structures of Leknaat; The Air District. Lawyers, politicians, and humanitarians make their mark in this district. For those who speak out against unjust laws, or for those who simply just want to take an evening stroll, Anatolí Park sets the mood with beautiful gardens and many benches to rest on. Those who simply cannot rest will surely want to see themselves to the courthouse instead, where all crimes stand trial. The ones who make the laws settle in their offices and meeting rooms at the capitol building. No one but the oligarchs, assistants, and scribes are allowed to enter here
