Enlod is the Capital of Arcachon, home to the Adgharhin Way and built by Adaghar himself.
Enlod has a population of 10,600. 250 of them are clergy of the Adgharhinist faith. Roughly 170 make up the noble upper class. There are 7 blacksmiths, 8 taverns, 5 inns, 8 butchers, 29 barbers and 40 tailors. There are 18 wine and ale sellers, 7 spice merchants, 17 weavers and 20 pastrycooks. There are 67 shoemakers, 40 furriers, 20 masons, 18 carpenters, 14 coopers, 14 chandlers and 13 bakers. There are copyists, cutlers, painters, woodcarvers. But mostly, the population are farmers.
It is a walled, heavily fortified city. The city walls are about 8,300 feet in total length, range from 12-24 feet in height and are from 8-15 feet thick. The rubble construction uses an ashlar facing and lime mortar. There are nine bastions, each a cylindrical stone tower about 137 feet in diameter and 90 feet tall. There are five gates, each with a gatehouse and portcullis. The gatehouses are each about 160 feet wide, 50 feet tall, consisting of two 60-foot diameter, 76 feet tall stone wall towers on each side of the gate.
The keep, located on the highest real estate in the city (Enlod Hill, rising 55 feet above the rest of the city), is a 415 by 484 feet rectangular fortress with four wall towers. The walls here are 14 feet thick and 22 feet tall. Militia units in the city are based in the bastions, with regular patrols sent out along the walls. There are generally up to 250 militia garrisoned in Enlod in peacetime, but the fortress can easily hold more troops. If the outer walls are broken through, there are thought enough wells and storage areas in the keep to outlast a siege.
The woods to the west of the city are part of the eastern edge of the Forest of Arcachon, which covers most of the Dark Isle.
