The Living City of Llangav

Thought to be one of the oldest living vessel communities of the elves, The vessels are said to number over 500. Most are hard to distinguish from one another they have grown together over the centuries. The community still boasts an impressive trade fleet  that is largely made up of vessels who serve Symath's Trading Guild which has it’s home offices located here. The other major trading companies and those who have large interests in elven and halfling goods also have a presence here. Llangov is home to a large number of high elves and lightfoot halflings. There is also a smaller population of humans known as the Alior. They have lived with the elves for as long as the lore keepers can recall. Of course there are also a number of half-elves. Traditionally they live with their mother’s family be it elf or human. Everyone on Llangov speaks high elf, halfling, and the Alior language. Most also speak the common trade language since trade is what the city is most known for. The city has a thriving commercial area for where Elven and halfling goods are for sale or trade.

The Alior are primarily the soldiers and guardians of the city. Their forces are augmented by elves and half-elves who focus more on the magical arts than martial combat. A very small number of halflings are part of the defense force. They tend to be technical specialists rather than combatants. The city is ruled by the high elves who have a caste system of royals at the top, merchants families next, crafters then low born. The actual government is a monarchy, the king or queen is viewed as the ultimate ruler of the community, others both royals and non-royals (including all the native races), handle most of the day to day operations of the government via parliament.
