At the time of the refounding of Cyrene, Czanthria also founded the [[Wardens of the Cerulean Spire|Runewardens]] [[guild]]. Three other guilds eventually joined it in making Cyrene their home: the humble monks of the [[Mojushai]], the fiercely loyal magi of the [[Arcane Kindred|Arcanists]], and the artists and performers of the [[Ty Beirdd|Bards]]. Within time, all four guilds underwent conversions into the [[:Category:Houses|Houses]] they are today. | At the time of the refounding of Cyrene, Czanthria also founded the [[Wardens of the Cerulean Spire|Runewardens]] [[guild]].

The '''News''' can be accessed from Merrilon approaching Centre Street. To the east and west from the News are the '''Cyrene Savings [[Bank]]''' and the '''Post Office of Cyrene''', respectively. [[Dalphon]], the clockworker both repairs clocks and copies keys in his shop, '''Dalphon's Fine Clocks and Keys''', just around the corner from the News. The arena, named [[Ainghaeal's Nest]], is in the southern part of town near the marina. The '''baths''' are just off Merrilon Avenue, across the way from the '''Imperium''' which houses the government offices and the [[The Imperial Library|Imperial Library]]. If you need help getting anywhere, [[Thomas]] the '''carriage driver''' will deliver you to a person or place on the streets of Cyrene for a small fee. Most recently, a stable has been added to the city where [[Viol'aa]] cares for the citizens' beloved [[mounts]]. The '''Lyceum''', located in the northwest section of the city, houses the [[Prosperian Athenaeum]], as well as the denizens [[Indalecio]], the city tutor, and [[Ophilia]], a botanist who sells a few [[flowers|floral]] arrangements. Finally, those wishing to sell rat corpses can find [[Jorj]] in the courthouse. The subdivision, [[Terraces at Lake Muurn]], boasts quaint garden lots as well as dramatic beach-front plots suitable for building. | |||
==Shopping== | |||
Cyrene has two main shopping districts. The first extends east to west along '''Centre Street''', which includes '''Artisan Plaza''' and its famed fountain. Rurin's shops are located around the Plaza, as well as the Commodities shop and many adventurer-run stores. [[Martina]]'s sweet shop is a favourite by locals and visitors alike. '''Ruminic street''' running south from Centre Crossing has a handful of shops along the way to the southern shopping district. '''[[Blu's Den of Delights]]''', Cyrene's own gift shop, sells items unique to Cyrene. The southern shopping district surrounds the subdivision, near Cyrene's arena while just beyond one will find an archery supply shop managed by [[Maltero]], the fletcher. Cyrene's [[shops]] provide a full range of wares sold by [[shopkeeping|shopkeepers]] from all parts of Sapience. For the convenience of shoppers, there is a "Merchant's Directory" at West of a Fountain in Artisan Plaza. | |||
==Dining and Recreation== | |||
There are a variety of eateries to be found in Cyrene. South of the Artisan Plaza, [[Amadeo]], the waiter, has tasty and affordable wares to sell at a '''[[roadside cafe]]'''. The dining room of the '''[[Dancing Boar Inn]]''' has a selection of food and beverages, sold and served by [[Dianthe]], the serving girl. North of Cyrene's gift shop, '''[[Blu's Den of Delights]]''', [[Melodia]], a [[siren]] [[kawhe]] server, sets up her '''kawhe kiosk''', selling light refreshments. [[Guilio]], a local drunk, might recommend something from the '''[[The Cyrenian Brewery]]''', at a patio of hand carved tiles. The brewery provides a selection of beverages, appetisers, main dishes, and desserts, served by a handsome bartender, a lazy waitress, and a busy waiter. In the shadier part of town, Sir [[Lance]], a fun-loving [[satyr]] bartender, sells an array of beverages and appetisers inside the '''[[Ram's Horn Bar]]'''. | |||
Gamblers from around Sapience come to the Dancing Boar Inn to visit [[Merindia]], the blackjack dealer, and [[Tatalia]], the roulette attendant, to play their gold or lessons for luck. The '''Ram's Horn Bar''' has more than food to offer. [[Shadya]], the bellydancer, will dance for you and more, for the right price. For the more refined Sapients, and some friends of a boy called [[Otis]], the gardens behind the '''Imperium''' provide a nice setting for a romantic picnic. The Imperium itself houses a ballroom for formal occasions and is ready to use at all times thanks to [[Lucia]], the housekeeper. Named for the spirit of the Forest of Light, in which the early settlers of Cyrene began building their home, the '''Theatre Prophasia''' was once host to the infamous [[Raphella]], the diva. Now deceased, it is only her colleagues Maestro [[Lucciano]] and the stage director [[Emelio]] that remain within the grand theatre. The theatre may also be used by adventurers to stage their own productions. Visitors and citizens alike may be visited by [[Balaia]], the snow tigress, or [[Baltas]], a fiery aileushan, two former loyals who were gifted to Cyrene by an Immortal and a Celani, respectively. | |||
