Sirta
cityDraft
Market town of the Sirta Plains, on the road between the pass of The Spine and the desert.
Description
Sirta lies at the foot of the eastern slope of the range, where the road from Fort Tarsa comes out onto the plains. It is a cluster of red roofs around a church with a tall tower. A second road leaves to the south and enters the sands of the Cirda Desert as far as the oasis.
Economy
Sirta is the trading place of Cirda. Here meet those who come from Marena with timber and fish, the salt workers of Ambel and the caravans of the Zahra Oasis with dates. The market gives its name to the plains around it.
Government
Sirta governs itself. It is a stopping place for the soldiers of the Kingdom of Vesperia who stand guard at Fort Tarsa, and they mingle with the people of Cirda.
