Furthinghome

Furthinghome is a trading port city in Aglarond and one of the oldest cities in the nation. Around 1368 DR it was made up of some buildings in the traditional Aglarondan weathered wood style and others made from stone, containing also a large slum where the buildings are simple huts. At the city's centre was a circular road and a public park called Old Furthing, which acts as a social and financial centre.

Trade
The port in Furthinghome is small and shallow, so it limits the size of vessels that can dock. In 1368 DR, merchants imported spices, textiles, tools and weapons and exported fish and a small amount of timber from the Yuirwood, limited in quantity by its half-elf occupants.

The city was also known for its horticulture around the same time, particularly for the dahlias, roses and orchids grown in the glass greenhouses of the wealthier citizens, but also for herbs too.

Government
The city was ruled in 1374 DR by Lord Fardyl Albin, a member of the Royal Council of Aglarond who preferred to stay away from the council where possible and concentrate his efforts on the wealthier merchants of Furthinghome.

Peacocks
A flock of peacocks were brought to the city from Mulhorand by Lord Ceraut, several decades prior to 1368 DR. After the death of Ceraut, his large estate became abandoned and the peacocks gradually spread to roam freely throughout the countryside surrounding the city.

Furthingharrow
The slum district of the city, on the hills of its east site, was known as Furthingharrow. It was a shanty town populated by those settlers who were driven out of the Yuirwood. Most citizens here work at the docks or as labourers or drivers. The lack of prosperity here is blamed upon a perception that only elves and half-elves can do well. The slums are inclined towards the Sons of Hoar.
