La vie dans la ville du Chaudron
Cauldron's buildings, tightly packed and built from volcanic rock and
wood, line the
inner bowl of a nameless, dormant volcano. Cobblestone roads form
concentric circles
around a small but deep lake of cold water which fills the volcano's
basin. Although
sewage seeps into the lake, local clerics routinely purify the water
for the citizens
in exchange for charitable donations to their temples.
A 50-foot-tall fortified wall of black malachite encircles the city,
tracing the
outer rim of the volcano. Four roads descend the volcano's slopes,
becoming major
throughfares that lead to other towns and distant realms. The regions
nearer the rim
of the city tend to be occupied by upper class families and elite
merchants. The
close one gets to the center of town (and the close to the often
pungent odors of the
central lake), the shoddier the construction and the more dangerous
its dark alleys
become.
Most people get around Cauldron on foot, although the town has its
share of wagons
and carriages, most of them owned by merchants and nobles.
Cauldron's major exports come from two sources: mines and plantations.
Both
industries are based in the hills surrounding the city, and are
managed by the
various noble families who live in the area. Obsidian and diamonds are
the primary
products mined in the region. Plantations usually produce sugarcane
and coffee. Most
of those who dwell in the city itself are either merchants, scholars
or workers in
the mines and plantations in the lowlands. Water is never scarce in
town, but most
food must be imported from Birone since the local fishing and farming
enterprises are
meager at best.
