Description and Atmosphere:
Lebish clings to the dusty skirts of the Khuree Highlands, a town born of grit and defiance as much as stone and mortar. It's not draped in the finery of the capital, nor does it boast the bustling grandeur of a trading hub. Lebish is a frontier outpost, a weathered hand clutching at the edge of the untamed wild. Within the warm still green plains below the high desert, plain stone houses lie, every window seems to watch travelers with suspicion, its dusty glass reflecting the wary gleams from within. Diverging from The High Road, the road through Lebish here thins to a dusty track here, a forgotten vein struggling to reach the heart of the Empire.
Unique Features:
