The volcanic activity of the core of the island makes it so that there is only one city in this region of the continent. The capital of the kingdom of Mara is built on and around the central volcano of the island. The eruptions and heat of the volcano and surrounding volcanoes are harnessed by advanced geothermal plants that provide the electricity that fuels the entire nation. Unlike the other cities in the nation, this city is built exclusively for combat and housing. Major defensive structures surround the city, and the city itself is built like a fortress, with economic buildings along the outer ring, residential districts in a ring behind those, and key industrial structures essential to the defense of the city behind the residential districts. It is the safest place on Seilara, and has endured both of the great wars without being breached. As such the cost of living here can be rather high, as safety is a commodity that is always in demand.
