===Meredius===
:An island city-state renowned for its craftsmanship and alchemical skill. Meredius occupies a sand island in the centre of the Southern Sea. They maintain strong connections with the Guild, exchanging luxury goods such as medicines, oils and liquers for foodstuffs and armed guards. Meredius is an ally of Ildrin.

:The city is divided into several districts, each separated by broad canals and immense walls of water. Bound elementals maintain the walls, preventing the spread of fire through the densely-packed timber buildings. Industrial areas produce alchemical reagents, refining ingredients brought from around Creation. Residential districts are comprised of tall, narrow apartment blocks, often built up to the edge of the canals. Rooftops are used as gardens, allowing the city to produce crops to supplement food brought by Guild fleets.
