Septon

On the cusp of where Mount Limbus, the rocky spine that cut through the centre of Toussaint, opens up to reveal a passage lies the city of Septon. In this way, Septon functions as the gateway-city between Alberea and Doren. It is home to monumental canals and aqueducts, as well as the largest cathedral of the Faith of the Chant, home of House Maevis.

Septon is a city of abundance and culture, with a thriving middle class. Since the annexation of Doren by the Alberean empire, Septon has functioned as the gateway between the two regions, guarding the mountain pass betwixt them.

Mastery of Watery
Being the heart of where the western waters of Alberea spring forth from, Septon is built in harmony with the flowing waters around it. There are countless canals flowing throughout the city, aqueducts leading water to remoter places outside it, and the first-ever artifice-driven sewage system.

Legislation
Though Septon is one of the larger cities in the Empire of Alberea, it enjoys a slightly privileged position when it comes to its rule. After the conquest of the Alliance of the Red Rose that started the empire, House Maevis (the first of the aristocratic houses to bend the knee to Solidor I) was given stewardship over the city of Septon, the city where they were based primarily. The peoples of Septon have always had a close connection to the nobility of House Maevis, who are known as generous benefactors to the populace, which made their transition into the Empire a smooth one under the rule of the Maevisine.
