The City of Spillsbreach



The City of Spillsbreach is a much smaller and poorer city than Melham but there is very little of this apparent poverty visible to a passing visitor. This is because Spillsbreach is home to the majority of the kingdom’s navy and has several large sections of the King’s army stationed there at any one time. This is partially in order to protect the fleet from would-be saboteurs, and because Spillsbreach is a very successful fishing town and is surrounded by fertile lands fit for farming. This local abundance of food means the kingdom’s armies can be easily fed without complicated logistics and without food having to be preserved for transportation across the land. The wealth gap which is present in Spillsbreach is mainly due to the commanding officers of these armies, many hailing from rich and influential families. Many men and women raised in such lavish conditions find the absence of these luxuries upsetting, even during their military service; so they revel in wealth in times of peace and hasten for its return come war.
