This was a city, packed dirt and cobblestone roads congested with people, mules dragging carts and wagons, and even a few horses carrying the wealthiest guild masters and merchants. Of course, horses would be far more common four hundred years later, when the harness would be perfected.
The city had its own character. While people looked ordinary enough and socialized in the normal ways, there was no shoving through traffic. Everyone stayed to the left side of the road when possible. The open carts of active merchants were only set up in certain areas and only one one side of the street, and the usual shouts of bartering were kept to close-packed crowds that allowed the city to flow around them. There was an order to this place. And yet, the enforcers of that order were few and far between. Yes, the city had its guard like any other, but the soldiers, wearing their silver accented leather helms which hid the face completely from view, could only be seen at long intervals along the road and at major intersections, not nearly enough to enforce any true law.
A deep, brain-muddling bell toll rang through the town, echoing off of metal plates mounted for that precise purpose. None of the normal residents seemed to notice. The sound came from the great Temple of Justice, which could be seen from almost anywhere in town.

The silver Aglar (ă'glǒr) has been minted since the early days of Rang, primarily out of the capitol, Duerstadt. There are also regional mints in most of the duchies, bearing unique mint marks, and producing, collectively, about four fifths as much as is produced by that would not be minted for another four hundred years.
Previously, money had seldom been an issue. It came and went readily enough, there was always plenty out there for the taking from those who did not deserve it. But direct acquisition seemed like a dicey prospect here.

He hoped it was not false in any way, as his own tendency to do the right thing fit quite nicely with the ordered culture, at least at its face. Stein was less interesting, with its static population, tucked away under the Kourells, but the people as a result had to be resourceful and hard working. There was nothing sinister about Stein. The people just let off steam more readily and seemed a little more rowdy. The hunters, frontiersmen and farmers of the mountains were harsher, less forgiving folk; not unlawful, simply less restrained.

Such an unkempt bunch would need a little educating in presenting themselves properly. He chuckled at the thought of never having rips in his shirts for more than a day, and kept his little secret thoughts to himself. Out loud, he said, “The temple…. Encouraging a religion to give its secrets away to a bunch of unknown travelers won’t be easy. Unless we are willing to trade the information we have, it is going to be difficult. I’ll try to meet with the clergyman I know outside of the temple, but I’m not sure how easy it will be. I’m not sure marching all of you into the temple will be the best solution.”

“The temple usually falls silent before noon, and the people arrive to worship. It is interesting as none of them say a word, not a greeting, nothing, until after the service, when as you can imagine they are much more talkative and the usual friendship side of meeting with others takes place. They follow in orderly lines, the imposing temple of Justice with it’s tall columns leading the way to the main doorway.
