Tourkiavini (City)

Description
Major city in the Snake Kingdom founded by Tourkiavini that is the seat of house Tourkiavini

Geography
City is in the far northeastern mainland of the Snake Kingdom. Has ports on the northern sea and very close to the city of Scyr across the Kirtan Straight.

City
The city is right on the water with large ports and many ships. The harbor in the Kirtan Straight is often very lively between the two cities of Tourkiavini and Scyr. The cities are very close and trade often. Scyr is on Anyr Island which is rich with farmland while there are many mines east of Tourkiavini that provide various metals and other resources. The buildings are very evenly spread out across the city with no major areas besides the residences of the Secondale. Not a very lively city with not much excitement ever going on.

Castle
The castle is very large, dark and not very colorful. It is built near a small cove that is used by only select individuals to get in and out of the castle to the harbor. Not many people are allowed in the castle walls but many are afraid of it because of how dark and scary the building is.

People
Tourkiavinians are not friendly people. Most are poor and are trying their hardest to get by in the city. They are quiet and reserved. Most are descendants of native tribal groups that were unhappy about the colonization by the Tourkiavini family. They remain in their small communal areas and try to avoid any royals or their guards.

Food
Most crops are imported from Anyr Island which provides a lot for the city. Fish from nearby villages provides a good deal for the city. Hunting is uncommon so game meat is imported from elsewhere in the Snake Kingdom

Army
The army is small but whipped into shape by ruthless officers. The soliders often terrorize the citizens of the city and find any excuse to use violence. Criminals are treated horribly and often beat to death.
