Description

"South lay the port, home of the merchants,
Built centuries ago to hold the old kings in check,
The line of merchant kings would remain for ever,
As long as the tides changed, as long as the wind blew,
And with them always would be the stars and the moon,
Guides in the night when the sun failed.

Every now and again Udeval would look out towards the Port Island, a huge shape in the distance capped with its great Hill upon which the Temple and the Keep stood." - Excerpt from the Tale of Udeval.

The Port Isle is the capital city of the Merchant Kings of the South and is almot entirely taken up with industrial structures and warehouses on its lower level. The top of the Hill (on the left) is the site of the city's communal activities - markets, fairs and worship. This is also where the Keep, the last and strongest defensive point of the island, is situated.
