Antediluvia: The City-State of Hagia Triadha, the City of Falling Coins (Basic Overview)

    On the coast of the land of Evech lies Hagia Triadha, a port at the mouth of a river that flows into the mountain range called the Eiglophian Spur.  The land of Evech is fairly peaceful, protected by those mountains almost completely from the rest of the Antediluvian world.  Hagia Triadha itself is one of the most egalitarian city-states in the known world, due to being a port city, and being governed by a council that votes by majority. All sorts of humans are encountered here, from cultures across the land, and it is a quite tolerant place with fair laws and adequate representation of the major religions of other cities. This all flows from Hagia Triadha's focus on trade. Most trade comes from the north, down the coast from the cities of the north like Uzuldaroum, Megiddo, Kanaan, and the City of the Slave-Kings. Some trade also enters the city along the coast to the south from the interior of Khapura and the Yezidee Tribelands. Along with commerce comes a melting pot culture, with innovations from all throughout Antediluvia being adopted here. 
    It could be an excellent base for a group of adventurers, with plenty of unexplored jungle around the city, the Eiglophian Spur being passable by traveling through them or to the north or west around them, and then on into even more unexplored country in Khapura or the nameless expanse to the north around Harmala Deep. The giant, miles-wide fissure in the continent called the Weird-crack lies to the west as well, and calls explorers to its depths to explore on a regular basis. It is rumored that the Weird-crack connects via miles of caverns and tunnels to the area underneath the Obsidian Throne and the Necropolis of Voor, as well as the areas below Taltun and The Spear, and continues far to the north where the mountains The Horn, Loshama, and the Mountain of the Spider dominate the landscape, forming a completely alternate world below the surface.
