Tilkisan is a beautiful Causeway city at the convergence of two tributaries of the Mavimar river. Life in Tilkisan isn’t beautiful for everyone, however. The city’s lower class lives on the Causeway’s roadside in packed, spartan homes overlooking the sprawl of Tilkisan wealth. Old mansions lie in verdant courtyards below, the homes of thou- sand-year old family lines whose ancestors once pleased some bey or another.
Silent dissent flashes between the faces of Tilkisan’s commoners. The wealth of travelers passing through has increased recently, as delver caravans display well-earned new wealth. The path to a better life is hope for a common beast, but bad news for a ruling class. They haven’t noticed yet.
