Map of Narim
Town Square:
Here, announcements pretaining to the entire city tend to be made in a heraldry fashion. Hired town criers may announce news, but the floor is open to anyone who wishes to speak.
The 'Seafoam' District:
Named by the townsfolk for it's general glimmer and shine, the Seafoam contains many large residences and is located towards the middle of the town, close to the hilled region on which the pinnacle of the town -- Crowshead Keep -- is built. Government buildings sprawl out from it and towards the Shvakkim, while upperclass residential areas surround the feet of such areas.
The Shvakkim:
No one really knows how it got it's name, seeing it doesn't even deal with something related to the sea as most areas seem to be named... but the main road through town has been dubbed 'The Shvakkim', and roughly seems to mean a collection of market stalls or businesses. Here, Narim bustles with commerce both in buildings and those that roam with pushcarts. At the beginning of this business-district like area, there is a roadmap, so to speak, as well as a bulliten board for business-related announcements.
The Bottom of the Sea:
Every city has it's slums, and Narim's happens to be aptly named for its position in relation to sea-life. (Much like a lot of other district names) Here, Narim's poor, lazy and low criminals lurk.. along with a few other illegalities. The government is, however, trying to reduce the size of the area.. (or so they would have you believe) and not succeeding too well.
Military District: (Cool sea-faring name pending.)
Hailed for it's greatness and yet inability to maintain the iron fist of control, this area of Narim is home to the Narim Imperial Legion, Gryphonry, and Naval Base. Fleets of ships can be seen in the bay that has been slightly closed off daily, as well as the clash of swords, spears and shields accompanied by flying feathers and the occasional arrows.
The Ranger's Cove
A softer aspect of Narim, the resident Rangers provide aid to both the military forces and the citizens alike. Upstanding rolemodels themselves, the Rangers are a group anyone who wishes to aspire to greatness while still being close to nature and verstile in their doings would love to join.
The Port City Docks:
Located at various points along the coastline, the docks are a span of wooden structures extending into the water that interspurse Narim's length.
The Parrot's Roost
Near, but seperated from the Seafoam District sits an area of the town devoted to enlightenment and learning. Within are the few places that would instruct the populace in various skills. It also includes the very few religious establishments.
