Pirate Cities

The pirate cities are as follows:

Tareel Darex Norva Agriope Virazath
 * South of Durgh, Tareel is a smaller city known to be the home berth of Black Ashling. Her ship, Emberflight, is the only ship on the three seas with scarlet sails. Tareel basically rules itself when its queen is at sea with the knowledge that should Ashling come back and anything is out of place, the perpetrators will learn the true meaning of the phrase "through hell and back"
 * Darex is Northeast of Auriak. It's a smaller city ruled by a council of elderly, amiable, retired, and somewhat senile old pirates. Among them are Uriberos the Butcher, Ivakir Hell-Born, Burra the Infernal, Illaphyra "Two-Finger" Arwyn, and Devil's Grin Goslen. They're known for spending lazy days in the sun and going out into town in disguise to tell little children their legacies and throw down their cloaks and false beards and declare that they are indeed Uriberos the Butcher (etc), who had bathed in the blood of a thousand men and personally raised Black Ashling, etc.
 * Norva is West of Ta'Anhan on the coast of the Theseon Sea. It's the home berth of Tiba Severshanth, an upcoming star in the shadow of Black Ashling. Who knows, maybe she'll one day outshine Ashling with her glory. In the meantime, Tiba Severshanth rules her port city with grace and justice and an iron will.
 * Agriope is a small port town on the end of the peninsula West of Virazath. Agriope was gifted to Ashling's first First Mate, Axoh Kazragara, who has since retired and now lives peacefully in a seaside bungalow.
 * Virazath is the largest port city on Lyrine and it's somewhat famous for being the first city Black Ashling conquered on her scorched, bloody journey through the Sea of Darthal. In name Ashling still rules, but she allows a council to rule in her somewhat lengthy absences. This council includes Janli Larongar (Bloody Jan), Rajwen (Scourge), Ziprik Hersheba (King), Malon Iolas (Ash-Hand Malon), Kedra Khidell (Loony Kedra, Kedra the Mad), Ashtar Yinrik (Ashtar the Kind), Ivasaar (Death-Dealer), and Orrian (Not Him Again, For Ashling's Sake, He'll Stand Near The Table: Get Him Out, That Fucker Bit Me)
