Landmarks

The Carillon, which is the garden in the center of the town houses a bell tower. It should be noted that the festive meeting portal is located just inside the Carillon and it is also in the Carillon that one is reborn after departing.

Unique Shops and Services

We have a MAMA'S, a furrier, a pawn shop and a forge as well as a hospital which is run by Yolesi. We also have the typical Bank, Town Hall and Courthouse services along with two local libraries, one of which is located in the Barbarian guild. There is also an Estate Holder's Club office and a Carousel for all your vaulting needs.

Guild wise you can find the Barbarian's guild which is run by Tusfaov, a Warrior Mage guild which is run by Margathe, a Paladin guild run by Avant and finally a Cleric guild run by Eydtha.

Shops

There is a bakery, an origami shop, a barber shop, a pet shop and an herb shop. Notably the herb shop does sell some unique items generally not found in an herb shop such as 50 stone juggling items.

For those who have found themselves taken to the penal colony against their wishes the best place to look for getting your items back would be the Barber's Shop. You'll have to ask around.

Bars, Inns, and Taverns

• Lanternside Inn
• Deeper's Tavern

Prominent Hangouts

The Furrier and the room just east of the Furrier are the general triage areas since there is a great blend of holy and life mana. A number of folks also tend to gather just outside the north barricade.

Favors

You can purchase tarts from the bakery in town and offer them to the alter in the Cleric's guild. The religious aspect associated with this altar is Saemaus.

Creatures:

Asaren Celpeze roam just beyond the north and south barricades on the island. The southern barricade contains a few "wilderness" rooms and the celpeze tend to roam in packs. The poison tail attacks are still working in the south barricade and the spawn rate is generally much slower.

The northern barricade is generally a much faster spawning area and the poison attacks do not currently work.

Miscellaneous

There are two docks around town. The larger dock known as Wharf's End is where personal boats dock as well as The Jolas which ferries people between Hara'jaal and Mer'Kresh. The Galley Dock which is located in the northern part of town runs two smaller ferries, The Cercorim and The Sanegazat which shuttle folks between Mer'Kresh and M'riss.
