-Located on the northwestern coast of [[Sapience]], the revamped [[city-state]] of '''Ashtan, Seat of Chaos''', was founded in the days of legend, long before the rise of the [[Seleucarian Empire]]. It has been a prominent seaport on the [[Sapphire Sea]] almost since the day [[Glanos]] established it, shortly after he and [[Sahart]] left [[Ceylon]]. Though the overseas trade dried up during the [[Anarchy Rebellions]] and the naval force fell into deprecation, in modern times Ashtan has still remained a powerful force politically, economically, and martially. Once a freedom-loving state, its primary principles now serve the ends of the [[Chaos Lords]], in mind, body, and spirit.
+Located on the northwestern coast of [[Sapience]], the revamped [[city-state]] of '''Ashtan, Seat of Chaos''', was founded in the days of legend, long before the rise of the [[Seleucarian Empire]]. It has been a prominent seaport on the [[Sapphire Sea]] almost since the day [[Glanos]] established it, shortly after he and [[Sahart]] left [[Ceylon]]. Though the overseas trade dried up during the [[Anarchy Rebellions]] and the naval force fell into deprecation, in modern times Ashtan has still remained a powerful force politically, economically, and martially.
 Reborn upon an abominable alliance of ruthlessly enduring vendetta, military might, and the terrible machinations of Imperator Glaaki and his Chaos Court, Ashtan has embraced its title of the Seat of Chaos. Their profane aims are wrought with havoc and destruction, utter ruin brought to bear against the orderly social and theological structures that would dare oppose the Bastion and her hermetic benefactors.
-[[:Category:Houses|House]]-wise, Ashtan plays host to a bevy of adventurers, including the [[Esoteric Consortium]], the [[Savants of the Wheel]], and the [[Nemesian Vanguard]]. The city-state is actively guarded by the likes of War Witches, sentries of the Vanguard, Shadow Amazons, thralls of the wheel, demented skyscourges, and Ashtan corsairs.

+Following the discovery and use of city guardians for the purposes of [[conquest]], 922 years after the fall of the Seleucarian Empire, Ashtan became the first nation to claim victory through this new avenue of warfare and don the mantle of the Eldritch Empire of Ruin, a title they retained for the following decade.

 The [[Iron Citadel]] was the former fortress and guildhall of the now-defunct Infernals guild. It was burned down by the angry citizens of Ashtan after the guild rebelled against the city. The guild tutor's magically-preserved head may still be seen piked before its ruins, a warning to all other potential turncoats.
-The '''Accron Overlook''', through which the Accra River flows, is the upper-class residential district. It is here that the houses of the merchant princes reside, as well as those of wealthy adventurers in nearby '''Golden Apple Estates.''' The [[Dowager Montagenet]] lives here in her classy but simple, Dorian-style mansion. Lady Korkill was known to reside here, resting on the laurels of her father's [[coal]]-mining company's meteoric rise from the ashes. Also of note is the estate of John Bailin, who made a fortune selling inks and dyes across the land.

 '''Martin's Sorrow''', with its disease-ridden streets and dilapidated buildings, caps it all off as the dead-bottom rung of the social ladder. The sculptor [[Cornelius von Storung]] once lived here. He is better known as the Unknown Artist and now resides in the upper level of the de Vermiis Art Gallery.

 ==Shopping==
-Just a stride away from the city gates, '''Central Market''' and the surrounding shops are most popular among and readily accessible to tourists and citizens alike. One of [[Rurin|Rurin's]] many outlets, it offers a wide array of utilities that would appeal to any adventurer, from inks and commodities to basic food and clothing. Just outside the '''Merchant's Quarter''', on the east end of '''Market Street''', is the shop '''[[S'dorrah]]''', world-renowned for its trade in precious gems and other exotic goods. Famous also for its extravagant clothing culled from the finest haute couture, this outlet is equally infamous for its exorbitantly matching prices. In the northwestern corner of town can be found '''Dockhand Square''', a popular crossroads of sorts. Aside from being the most frequent haunt of the [[Ratman]], this seaside district is dotted with many odd adventurer-owned shops catering to all manners of taste. Venturing east and south from here, one might find a cluster of adventurer-owned shops along a particular curve of '''Croce Lane''', as well as the [[forge|smithy]] of [[Listar]], the Royal Blacksmith. On the far east side of the city, steeped in the upper-class elegance that is the Accron Overlook, is '''[[Amadia|Amadia's]] Jewellery Shoppe of Ashtan'''.
