Neverwinter (City)

"The City of No Frost, The Diamond Palace, The Winterless, and Austania and all a few names given to Neverwinter."

Neverwinter is the capital city of Austania. It was the second city built besides Timberwood. Neverwinter was built to establish trade with the small human towns in the Fallen Isles. Neverwinter quickly became the largest city. Eventually they moved their nobles and kings to Neverwinter. There they built a Palace and at each tower they created four massive Diamonds. At night time the Diamonds glow because powerful mages casted a series of spells to make them glow like a beacon.

Currently the city is decreasing population from migrating, most people in Neverwinter have less loyalty to the throne and believe more in personal freedom. More people are leaving for places such as Brimstone, Black Marr, and Ironwood.

Neverwinter exports Wheat, Stone, and Wood. Wheat is commonly farmed on the outskirts of the City. Stone is excavated in the near by mountains and towns. Guildenwood ships stone down the Neverwinter river and Neverwinter exports them. Wood is also collected on the outskirts of town and in the other cities.
