A small fishing village west of Cerentuin. It was once known as Arelodwing (a combination of Elwing and Arod, two famous feuding land-owning families who made peace to create a city). Not much farming can be done on most of the island, and although the old structures are lost, a well-ordered town has risen from the rubble. In Ketchy, fishing has been rather profitable. The new town name refers to a style of sailboat thought to once have been popular in the area.

No map is needed here, for its streets are arranged on a grid and each quarter is strictly zoned. Nothing is ever out of place or hard to find in these cities.
