Divisions

Nartok can be divided into two major divisions, Old Town and New Town. Walled fortifications built following the first First Dead Man’s War surround Old Town; it houses the city's elite old blood and generally holds a cultured atmosphere. Said construction brought in an influx of artisans and workers that came to live around the walls of Old Town, causing a new section of town to be built. Today Old Town holds Nartok's many ethnic and racial neighborhoods as well as the Logger's Quarter that is the center of Nartok's lumber operations.[1]
