The guards make little notice of you except to open the large iron gate and in your general direction say, "Welcome weary traveler, we have but one law, do not take the freedom away from another." You can see a busheling city beyond the large gate. The guards make no other conversation nor do they respond to any questions when asked.

Where do you head?

The city of freemen was founded by pirates centuries ago, since that time it has remained a controversial place. It has withstood many sieges from those who wish to change what the city stands for.

The city is based on the notion that everyone should be free to do as they please as long at it does not hinder the freedom of another. Wealth is something that is seen to be shared freely. If one feels oppressed by another it is not uncommon for them to react violently agents the oppressor. This violence does serve to offset the very principle for which this city was founded. Because of these two conflicting values, the city is is often in a state of balanced chaos with many factions or gangs competing for power. It is a place where many things can be found but also lost.
