The Shades 

Located between the University, Parliament Hill, and the New City Center, this area of small narrow alleys, squares, and dilapidated buildings is quite unsafe to walk in unless you have a squad of armored marines at your back.

New City Center 

Area rebuilt by Vrak the First after the Blood Wars. This area of square streets and several blocks given over to pools filled with water is now the main finnancial district of the city. The early Vrakian buildings have been replaced with skyscrapers of glass and steel.

Guild City 

This area of the city surrounds Guild Square, where each of the city Guilds built huge palace/fortress complexes as they ruled the city with an iron fist before the Blood wars. After the Blood Wars they remained primarily in power until the destruction of the Assasins Guild in the Day of the Dark Knives which is now Landgravine Square.

Springplace 

This area under the western shadow of Cenotaph Hill consists mainly of older, narrow streets and townhouses. At the center is St. Mary's Cathedral, Cathedral Square and the Palace of the Patriarch.

The Vrakian Narrows 

This walled city within a city is the home of most Vrakians living within Port Olympus. It lays along the narrow Long Lake between Parliament Hill and Arx Hill.

The Sands
