Silveil City is a crowded bustling city that never sleeps. It’s always night time sure, but the bright glow of lanterns never fade and the cheers and chatter that come from the gambling houses never falters, no matter what the hour is. The gambling houses are brightly lit and beckon all who pass to come inside and try their luck. You has never been allowed in, she’s too young, but she’s wandered the streets of Silveil City quite often with her mother and brother. There are often people playing games even outside, betting on dice and cards on street corners, it’s hard to go far without seeing some form of betting and money exchanging hands. They even offer schools and classes on the various games offered at the gambling houses, Although You’s favorite teacher Soren has since moved away. She still enjoys learning how to play (cheat) at cards and the like. It’s a fun and fast paced place. Of course you have to watch out for pickpockets and the like, but what else can you expect from such a city? It can be a dangerous place at times, although the thieves guild that runs the city does have its own code of honor. Children are rarely bothered, even one such as You who oftens finds herself in the quieter outskirts of the city, near the canals and lakeshore. It’s often fun for her to lean over the edges and peer down into the depths, hunting for glimpses of the glowing creatures that live amongst the branches of the inverted Elder Tree that props up the city. The lake is filled with so much life from glowing jellies to shimmering Koi like fish that dart in and out through the branches of the elder tree. The edges of the city provide a welcome calming break from the never ending hustle of the inner city.
