duskpetersonMost travellers to the Emorian borderland take the opportunity to visit the capital of Emor, located immediately north of the borderland.
With walls higher and thicker than those of any other city in the Three Lands, Emor's capital looks from the outside to be a garrisoned fort. This appearance is deceptive. Once you pass through the heavily guarded gates, you will find yourself in a bustling city, full of trade and games.
My strong advice is that your first task should be to find a place to stay. The capital's inns are crowded year-round; the more crowded they are, the higher the prices they charge. If it is at all possible, see whether you can find an acquaintance to stay with – though I'm bound to say that the capital's residents are so used to "friends" showing up at their homes without notice that many of them now charge boarding fees almost as high as those charged by the inns.
You could easily spend a year perusing all the sights in Emor. I can only touch on a few of them here.
[Translator's note: The gates to Emor's capital feature in a spiritual vision in Death Mask.]
