Worthington
Population: 22,000
Government: City Council
Districts:
Eastway
What started as a suburb of sorts has outgrown its borders, spilling outside of the city walls. This is where the “middle-class” lives and works.
North District
The farming community and markets. While there are some homes here, it mostly food stalls and stockyards
Spicestair
This is the area’s trade hub. Goods come into the South District, get processed by officials and the black market, and are finally sold here. You can find pretty much anything in this district, for the right price.
South District
There are no “homes” here. This is where the docks are located. As such, during day hours it is constantly bustling with activity. Business, both legitimate and illegitimate, can be found here. Urchins and bums roam the streets looking for their next copper.
Westroad
This district is almost identical to the Eastway district, with the only real difference being the income gap between the two. Westroad is home to the lower-class. Those who scrape and save to make ends meet.
Silver Barrow
The only district that is completely within the city walls. This is where one can find high-end shops and restaurants. It is also home to the wealthier upper-class and nobility.

Ever-bleeding statue
A statue of Sir Lyle Pruitt.
Sir Pruitt was killed during the unification war, defending the barred doors of the Worthington citadel, where hundreds of citizens were taking shelter.
He was killed by a spear to the chest, which pinned him to the doors, further securing the shelter.
His statue, made of pure white marble, bleeds from the chest and back where the spear broke the flesh.
It started bleeding in 942, and has continued to bleed since.
The blood evaporates immediately upon hitting the ground.
