Hila

Industry: Silver mining and smithing

Many ores, most abundantly silver, come from the mines of Hila. Settlements often pop up, thrive for several years where mines are created, and then abandoned once a region is exhausted or fully surveyed. Rich metal-filled spires and sturdy limbs make for a strong culture of metalworking. Sailors and merchants passing through the Hila sky often hear rumours of strange beasts and monster in more variety than elsewhere, which has made the sky home to more superstitions and common rituals than any other place.

Capital - Captica
It is pointless to ask which is better, the new Captica, or the old, for the city has been remade in many of the ages, with many new faces. Its masks have blurred together into an imperfect stillness. There, a tailor’s shop blinks with kind eyes. On the corner, a tavern changes its swaying board painted with a tankard with one bearing brighter paint. Who can tell the person behind each mask? If a woman can change her fortune with a suit, can a man not change his fate with a lighter purse? If one has desire and silver to spare, an alternative solution is always present in the gilded metropolis.

Maybe so many Capticas add to the fractured worry that haunts the stone arches that open and close every street, road, and alley. The wonderful crystal lanterns are betrayed by their black-iron mesh, hope enmeshed with overprotection. No two street corners are the same, lest they draw an unknown spirit’s ire. Old superstition sleeps beneath the same trod-upon stones that laugh at new rumours, but the same pinch of salt is thrown over shoulde in the new Captica as was thrown with a worried chuckle in each Captica that ever was, that will be I suspect.
