Marrauk

Marrauk was a port city and a member of the confederation of the Dusk Ports in Laerakond.

Geography
Marrauk was surrounded by five high valleys filled with deep deposits of very fine, pure salt. Those fields were full of bleak and bare of vegetation, and the land was scoured by windblown grit known as "blowscree" that usually killed all unprotected greenery.

Background
Because of the "blowscree", the city was also known as the City of Dusk. People usually wore dark, hooded cloaks to protect themselves against the "blowscree", making everyone look alike out of doors.

Government
Lylorn was ruled by a high lord, an hereditary title. In 1479 DR, the high lord was Dauna Lorastur.

Economy
Marrauk exported salt to other regions in Returned Abeir and western Faerûn.

Architecture
Marrauk buildings were mostly massive edifices made of stone.
