More about Kleine
The only trading route
these days is downstream to Melinir. The ongoing dwarf/arc conflicts dissuade
all but the most foolhardy merchants from traveling into the Farolas Hills. The
best bet for safely selling one's goods is to send them down the river.
Kleine has a 50-foot-tall watchtower located
on one of its winding streets. From here, the city watch (composed entirely of
volunteers or those who have no other jobs) can make sure that any assault does
not come unheralded. If the city is in
imminent danger of being attacked, the watchman rings a bell at hand, whereupon
all citizens rush to their homes, bar their doors, and ready their weapons.
Although the city has never yet been under siege, they remain prepared for just
such an emergency.
Fairs
When it comes to festivities, Kleine holds
very few as grand as The Festival of Talan; a celebration held in the spring to
honor those who initially settled Kleine ages ago. While the celebration is
primarily to honor of the leader of that expedition, Talan Amliir, folks from
as far as Melinir make the trek up the Drake River Lake Ostrel
The festival lasts for three days, after which,
on the evening of the third day, Sister Remia
performs a ritual to Erastil, thanking him for the bountiful times they have
had and for continued peace and prosperity.
