Riverholm is the current capital of Caergoth, lying just north of the Matakonis mountains on the coast of the Ash Sea. The second-largest city in Caergoth, it is dwarfed in size by the addition of Ash'rily, black jewel of the Ash Sea. Nevertheless, it is the most important city of the realm and is far more developed than the war-torn Ash'rily.

Economy

The biggest industry is the manufacture of goods; this employs the majority of the burghers and townsfolk and earns the city the majority of its wealth.

Trade with other regions, in comparison, comes close in terms of employment but produces less than half the wealth.

A small but important sector consists of farming and fishing, while almost five thousand are employed directly by the local Duke and by the Kingdom of Caergoth itself.

Places of Note in Riverholm

The Dragon Reborn

A famous, or some would say infamous, tavern frequented by many of Caergoth's current and past nobles and commoners alike.

The Academy of Riverholm

Home of the Riverholm Sabre style of fencing: "A flamboyant trick-moves style, very advanced, using scimitars, sabers or other curved single-edged swords, employing graceful cuts, dodges, slashes." As well, many bureaucrats, soldiers and traders alike come to the Academy to train and educate themselves, tutored by many of the brightest and most learned minds in all Atamara.
