Places/Hebridonia/Kalen
From Hebridonia Wiki
The capital of Hebridonia, and the baronial seat of Kalenshire, the city of Kalen lies on the western banks of the Helmsdale River. Kalen is the northern-most navigable port on the Helmsdale River, and acts as a central hub of trade for goods heading to all points of Hebridonia.
Kalen is composed of several bouroughs, including Whitehall, Whiteinch, Clovertoun and Squawkertown. The city is bounded by a fortified wall, with four gates to allow entrance and egress. The center of the city is dominated by a tall bluff featuring the Royal Court.
Squawkerstown - The Barrows
The Barrows is a cramped, crowded, open air flea market in the heart of Squawkerstown. The place is filthy, smells of stale urine and sweat waft through the air as the crowds mill past a motley assortment of hawkers. There are no formal stalls or shops, just space that a vendor has secured by their physical presence, usually with some sort of cobbled together table, or a battered blanket upon which may be the sum of his or her possessions.
There are all kinds here. Fences selling stolen goods. The desperate, selling what they can for another meal. Hucksters with snake oil for the masses. Fleshmongers of all kinds. Purveyors of illicit goods. They're all here. You can get anything here. Well, almost anything.
Every few seasons, the city guards will sweep through the Barrows; usually after something really EXPENSIVE has been stolen from someone important. But the Barrows is always there the next day, same as before....
