Three Cloud City

The cultural and scientific hub of Anthali, Three Cloud City is very diverse without one particular species making up a majority of the population. The population of Three Cloud City is fairly reflective of the species that make up the continent of Anthali in percentages similar to the worldwide population.

Entertainment

Three Cloud City is densely packed with stores, restaurants, spas, theaters, and other services that provide entertainment. A notable attraction is the amusement park Bingo Sam Land. The park is located on an island that protrudes from where the Daltice and the Cinva rivers split and is home to the Ascended being Bingo Sam.

Climate

Three Cloud City is located slightly inland from the ocean, where the Daltice and Cinva rivers split. The climate is mostly temperate and follows a four season pattern.

History

Founded roughly -1400RMU as a trading community, it was founded by Afari, Cornu, Roli, Virides, Nyepert, and Selta travelers. Three Cloud City was a natural place for traders to form a new settlement, as it is located roughly equidistant from the ancestral homes of each of these species. As trade routes became more popular between these regions, merchants began to open inns at the intersection of the Daltice and Cinva rivers. Vidres would travel in from the woods to the north, Cornu and Roli from the southwestern plains along the lower Cinva river, Afari and Selta would travel in from Byloc down the Daltice river, and Nyepert from the coast to the east.

As time went on and the settlements became permanent homes to merchants, entertainers from all over flocked to Three Cloud City to take advantage of the high number of wealthy merchants with money to burn. This influx of creatives from all over Anthali resulted in the fusion and innovation of traditional styles. Three Cloud City became known for innovation and forward thinking.

Manufacturing continues to be a major industry in Three Cloud City. This drove the city to become the home of scientific innovation and eventually robotics. When the process to create sentient robots was discovered, Lindia Asii came up with the HART process for ensuring it was impossible to trace who's heart was given to any particular robot.
