Grauzier

**Grazier** is the capital city of the Dragon-kin nation known as Drazenia. The site was chosen after the formation of the Drazenian nation.

## Geography

### Physical geography

The city is located on two hills, named Tenil and Reyil. The river Zenine runs in between the two hills. Roughly in the middle of the city in a lower lying area the river splits in two shortly afterwards the two streams merge back together. This split creates an island on which the Grand Temple can found, which functions mostly as a government hall.

### City districts

The city is administratively divided into multiple districts.

#### Temple District

The Temple District is located on the central island and part of the outer banks of the Zenine, it houses the three main temples: the Grand Temple, Temple to Tenno and Temple to Reyim. In addition many of the governmental buildings and housing for the high priest can be found here. The district is surrounded by an impressive stone wall some of it dating back to the times of dwarven occupation. On the central Island the Grand Temple can be found at the centre of the island with the main road passing right in front of it. An additional road goes from the mouth of the temple directly away, creating a t-shape in the road pattern. At the far end of this road the main justice hall is located. On the sides of the road the Temple of Tenno and Temple of Reyim can be found. Smaller roads connect up with the houses of the High Priest which are located behind the main buildings. Behind the justice hall the barracks of the Protectors of the Kin can be found, which are an elite bodyguard tasked with protection of the High-Priests

An absolute must see is the Grand Temple, located in the centre of the Island, which is beautifully decorated with lead stained glass windows depicting the different gods accepted in Drazenia. The temple is shaped as a circle, build with granite bricks, consisting of multiple layers. The two most upper floors are dedicated to depicting the gods in stained glass. On the lower floor the five 'lesser' gods can be found and on the top floor the four 'greater' gods. The windows can still be seen from the main floor of the temple, which is accessible to the public.

#### Dragon Port

The Dragon Port is a large district in the south of the city. This location acts as a landing zone for dragons transporting goods to trade partners of Drazenia to the south and west, past the Umamthakom Mountains. The district also houses the dragons who are willing to life in the city and work together with the Dragonborn and Kobolds instead of sitting in lairs discussing the philosophy of Reyim.

### Glass

The city is known for crafting beautiful stained glass which it exports to many cities in Astrohanasia. Outside of the city great glasshouses can be found in the forest. Kobolds chop and transport the wood which gets turned into wood ash, which gets combined with sand to create a semi-clear greenish looking glass. Usually the wood ash is produced by simply lighting it a fire, however sometimes a dragon offer their help which creates a higher quality glass since the dragon can control the temperature of the fire better. When producing a higher quality glass the many glassmakers import quartz from Scorch Gate. If the colour of glass needs to be altered a variety of materials are added, for example to create a more blue-green coloured glass a small amount of iron is added. Most of this iron is mined from the foothills of the Umamthakom Mountains. For a stronger green colour copper oxide gets add in the mix. While going for a more pure blue colour cobalt is used. Recently the glassmakers have refined their methods and started using manganese to create better clear looking glass. This glass is highly expensive but really sought after.
