"A trade hub between Alexius and Hyza in the past, the merchant town of Gamli has now become the first line of defense against Alexius old ally. Mass amounts of Outside Watch Soldiers take position in Gamli.
For that reason it has been fortified around it with walls which have cannons and archers
on-top of them, there are a considerable amount of forces stationed there.
Now the merchant town looks more like a fortress.
In front of the town, towards Hyza there has been dug various holes and gaps, preventing mass of soldiers attack, either on foot or on horses, the security is obviously more tight and every person going in and out is checked. The town is less lively than usual due to the war going on which made some of the people pack up and head north, deeper into Alexius for more safety but still lively enough as it has a big market spreading from north of it all the way to the south of the town, on it's main street. People come and go, trades happen daily. The town has all the features needed for travelers. Inn(s), tavern(s), stables and lots of shops and variety of wares to buy(there is a rumor of a black market also existing)."
