The ligonine capital of the Beast World is high in the northern Beylik. There’s no sign whatsoever that anything lies beneath this part of the Bey’s Head; the city of Glimmerpool is only accessible via The Loamlink. In the peculiar history of the ligonine species, Glimmerpool is cited as the place where the three disparate cousins met for the very first time. Despite its geography making this astoundingly unlikely, this is held as true by every ligonine.
Glimmerpool shares its name with the under- ground lake the city surrounds. This body of water is fed by a waterfall from the Bey’s Head mountains, continues under the cavern, and empties outside to become one of the main sources of the Attamek. The waters of the Glimmerpool are a sacred place to the ligonines, all of whom make an effort to visit the city at least once in their lives.
The stereotype of ligonines as good-natured weirdos marching to the beat of their own drum is absolutely fulfilled by this city. The architecture is a wild mishmash of every homeland’s and the armadillo-friendly streets dip and curve seemingly at random. The influence of moles’ love for tinkering and clockwork is everywhere. Most of the city is also accessible by hooks and hanging bars, to facilitate easy traversal by sloths.
Like the rest of the Loamlink, Glimmerpool is devoid of natural light. Ligonines nonetheless encourage outsiders to accompany them to the city, so long as they are prepared with a lamp and patient with the eccentricities of its people.
