Westruun

History & Description
A city in the central of Tal'Dorei, midway between Emon and Whitestone. The city guard is known as the Shields of the Plains. It was named after Palest Westruun, and the town's iconic flower is the white iris. The city is divided into six wards.

Opal Ward
The center of the city is the Opal Ward. It doesn't have residential housing, but does hold the public square, Margrave's Mansion, and the Hall of Reason.

Residential Ward
Filling the northeastern section of Westruun, this is the city's most densely-populated section. Two-thirds of the population live here, and the Shields are stretched thin.

Scholar Ward
The northwestern ward of the city, this section holds libraries, universities, and the observatory.
 * Cobalt Reserve
 * College of the Savvy
 * Yuminor Observatory
 * Westhall Academy

Temple Ward
A small ward in the south of the city, where free worship is encouraged within the various sanctuaries.

Market Ward
The southestern ward, containing most of the city's businesses, trade, and warehouses.

Underwalk Ward
The city's newest ward that is built from re-purposed sections of the sewer system. It was originally built during the invasion of the Chroma Conclave to keep the populace hidden, but it's been mostly abandoned. The residents now are either those too poor to return to the Residential Ward, or by those that prefer to go unseen. It's basically taken over by the Clasp. The most well known entrance is an inauspicious manhole in the Opal Ward, topped with a metal cover emblazoned with the crest of Westruun.
