Tanis (city)

Tanis is a major metropolis in Kesh. It is also one of the oldest cities in the world and home to the Church, the last remnants of the Old Empire.

Description
Flush with fresh, invigorating sea air, the city of Tanis is alight with warm colors and bright sandstone buildings, minarets, and spires. The common people are fairly poor, but content, and seemingly indifferent to the crumbling infrastructure.

The Cathederal
One of the most ancient monuments in the Core Empires, the grand Cathederal towers above the Tanis skyline and can be seen from miles away. The Church has held services here for millenia.

Boardwalk
All along the southern shore of Tanis can be found a wealth of amusements. Marinas full of pleasure craft for evening cruises, beaches for swimming, and many stores selling novelties and high-end goods.

Ruins of Empire
A small, intimate operation, the Ruins of Empire furnishes the Core Empire's nobility with only the finest arms and armor. The location's low profile and exclusive clientele means word-of-mouth trustworthiness and there is always time to browse.

Westmoreland Imports
A warehouse of a general store, Westmoreland Imports sells a little bit of everything. Run by the Westmoreland Trade Company, it has access to an international inventory of items.

Knobi Oils and Medicine
On the fringe of the infamous Tanis slums squats a squalid, crumbling hovel- but looks can be decieving. Knobi Oils and Medicine carries a vast array of alchemical solutions and potions, just keep your hand on your wallet.

The Cottonwood Club
Wedged between a textile mill and an oil refinery, the Cottonwood Club doesn't look like much on the outside. However, step inside and you'll be taken in by the thick, misty atmosphere of hookahs, strange music, and dangerous people.

Five in the Pink
Just on the edge of the red light district, Five in the Pink has everything for flamboyant, fun-loving, adventerous man. No girls allowed (not really).

Les Incompetent
Foreign regulars are a common sight at this classic Celestine cafe. Les Incompetent is currently undergoing rennovations, but promises to return bigger and better than ever, with its quaint breakfasts and exotic drinks.
