Dragonroost

Dragonroost is the largest town in the otherwise docile, rolling plains of northern Zilargo. While the occasional Dhakaani ruin dots the countryside, the gnomish resistance prevented them from heavily settling the area. The area was amongst the first to collapse from the Xoriat invasion, with gnomes sweeping in after retreating Dhakaani forces to devour the knowledge left behind.

Boasting the largest human population of any city in Zilargo besides Trolanport, Dragonroost is a cosmopolitan trading hub. The city boasts two critical advantages - it's where the headwaters coming down from the Howling Peaks turn into the Oskilor River down into Glamer Bay, and a local Thelanian manifest zone keeps beautiful and rare flowers blooming all year long. While the Lightning Rail does not pass through the city, Orien maintains plenty of caravans that take a pit stop on their way down to Trolanport.

The city is named after the large quantity of "domesticated" faerie dragons that roost in the area. The faerie dragons play along with the gnomish games of wit, acting as spies and messengers in exchange for baubles and morsels. Visitors quickly learn not to anger the creatures.

Lacking the size or stature to gain representation in the Triumvirate, Dragonroost is ruled by a council of three clans - the Davandis, the Nezzelechs, and the Santiars.

Today, the city is managing an influx of Cyran refugees who weren't comfortable with the constant reminder of loss that is New Cyre. As with Zolanberg, the gnomes have been more than hospitable, but not all the refugees have adapted to the rules of Zilargo. The Trust has done its best to keep things in line, but not every refugee is comfortable with the discreet and preemptive justice enacted by the shadowy organization.

Politics of Cyre

The largest city in Zilargo not represented in the triumvirate, Dragonroost boasts a surprisingly large population of Cyran refugees. While many refugees who balk at Oargev’s leadership have moved to Sharn, others felt the need to leave the Five Nations. The gnomes of Zilargo avoided making major diplomatic overtures to invite refugees, but those that came have been peacefully resettled in Dragonroost. However, the Trust is still wary of possible trouble and has kept a watchful eye on the community.
