Old Town was where the town originally started, before it became the capital of the kingdom. Many historic buildings are in this area, but most of the district is given over to residences and shops too small to compete in the merchant's quarter.


Inside the Durbin Dervish, a crowd of rough, dirty men are sitting around tables drinking ales. There are a dozen tables in the tavern, and all of them have at least two patrons, and two of them are at max capacity with six. Except for the two in corners of the room, each table is raucous and, if not exactly cheery, energetic. The two in the corners are shadowy and the figures sitting about them are hooded.

just like in the Sad Flint, shadowy figures sitting in corners is the trope around in these parts.
