Halt! Who goes there!
Ah, a hearty group of adventurers! Welcome to Valeth! Please come on in! Mind you head on the gates as they rise.
This is a fairly large city so be careful not to be lost. If you need a good landmark, the Grand Library at the center of the city is that tall spire that can't be missed. Other than that, the four corners of the city has a tall tower with a symbol for each of the four main elements: air, water, earth and fire.
Because of the Library and the four towers, this place has attracted many magicians. As such, a magic academy has been established here, and beneath the Library, a large transportation platform has been built to help create portals to other major cities around the world. I heard that some portal masters can even create portals to Avia city, but that's just a rumor. Everyone knows that going there is forbidden unless you're 'one of them'.
Anyhow, I suppose your quite sick of the rantings of a lowly gate guard, so I'll let you go on about your business. Just remember to behave yourself as this city is patrolled regularly by guards for everyone's safety. Most of them are trained in some magical arts so be warned.
May I suggest the Flying Dagger Inn if you wish to rest. The best beds in town and, in my humble opinion, the barmaids are the most attractive..
Have a nice stay in Valeth!
Greg Valeth City, Main Gate Guard, Day shift.
