====== Laelith ======

Laelith is a very large city where hundreds of thousands of inhabitants live. Far from everything, surrounded by high mountains and extinct volcanoes, framed by a large lake to the east and vertiginous cliffs to the west, it remains difficult to reach. However, it is a prosperous city, and people mainly come for three reasons: first for its ecumenism and the possibility for each pilgrim to inscribe his cult in the great Book of one of the four Elementary Temples; for its economic vitality then with the ability for a merchant to sell or buy just about anything the world can produce; finally for its opportunities, which every adventurer will try to exploit, for the fame and wealth they can bring him! But beware, like its tormented relief - a very large slope, a fault cutting the city in two, a subsoil full of dangers, a maze of labyrinthine alleys... - the Four times holy City conceals many unsuspected enigmas, multiple and twisted court intrigues, numerous frightening mysteries... all opportunities for an ambitious character to obtain the greatest glory... or the most pathetic death.

Laelith covers just under 8 km2, with a significant difference in height of 900m between Lake Altalith and the cliffs to the west of the city. This slope generates a stratified urbanization and chaotic traffic.

Laelith is composed of six terraces, each with its own identity and atmosphere. Here are the names of the terraces:

* **The Hand That Crafts**: This is the district of craftsmen of all kinds. There is a constant and prosperous activity.
  * **The Lakeshoe**: This is a poor and dirty neighborhood, with ports, infamous tavinns and military Barracks. There are also temples like that of the Silver Fish and the Skull.
  * **The Prosperity**: This is the commercial heart of the city, with its Great Emporium and The Theater. Here, everything is sold and bought under the watchful eye of the guilds.
  * **The Mist**: This is the university center and cultural hotspot. There are intellectuals, students and believers. The Temple of the Mist shines there.
  * **The Punishment**: This is a cursed district that the God-King has decided to rehabilitate. It is atypical and does not comply with any known law.
  * **The High Terrace**: This is the most luxurious district of Laelith, housing the God-King Palace, the private mansions of the court, the prisons and the courts.

There is also a district called **[[en:laelith:cloaque|The Cloaque]]**, located under the city, which serves as a drainage network. However, it is terrifying and dangerous to go there.

In summary, Laelith is a lively, cosmopolitan and full of life city, where you can enjoy many activities, discover talented people and live a unique spiritual experience.
