Shadmouthton
Shadmouthton is the largest settlement at the mouth of the Shadew River, so named for the surrounding region called the Shadmouth. Shadmouthton rests on the southeasternmost point of Bavaila Island and is the last settlement for most river-barges before exiting the mouth of the river into the waters of the Shadevan Delta. Shadmouthton is part of the Aurician Over-Province of Agogia. In 2745, the city was calculated to have about 37,000 inhabitants and is one of the largest cities in the region. The city has two ancient stone walls. The larger demarcates the traditional northwestern boundary between the city proper and the rest of the island of Bavaila. The second wall girds the high city (acropolis). Shadmouthton has two faces to the river, the one to the south is the bank of Shadew River and frequently receives river-barges making visits for service. The bank to the northeast borders the Umbarbifa River, a short but large channel that connects the Saint Ameldaib River to the main channel of the Shadew River just before it empties into the Shadevan Delta.
Shadmouthton is famous for its many visitors and travelers. The navy of the Aurician Empire has stamped out piracy, but other vices such as unlicensed gambling establishments and organized crime abide.
