Nimpeth

Nimpeth was a city-state located on the southern shore of the Vilhon Reach. It was one of the Free Cities of the Vilhon Reach,  which were the largest and most powerful city-states in the region.

Culture
Its inhabitants were fiercely independent and defensive about their achievements and produce, and any visitors who questioned or doubted this were likely to be attacked.

Cuisine
Vilhon eels were marinated in wines, stuffed with herbed eggs and cheese, and fried to create a local delicacy. Circa 1372 DR, it was common to find eels that contained valuables, such as rings, gems, and jewelry, although it was not clear why the eels were swallowing these or where they were coming from.

Nimpeth was known for its delicious Vilhon Cider.

History
Migrant workers from Nimpeth, among other places, went to join in the construction of the canal that Innarlith was building between the Lake of Steam and the Nagaflow in the mid-1360s DR. This project was widely seen as bringing much lucrative trade to the Lake of Steam region, because it would have connected the Sea of Fallen Stars to the oceans of Toril through the Lake of Steam. When Innarlith's Ransar Salatis started to find excuses to cut funding for the project, Nimpeth paid for its own workers to continue their work on the site.
