Yhaunn
Port in Sembia
Yhaunn is the oldest city of Sembia, a crowded coastal city built in an ancient quarry, where buildings grow upward because there is no room to spread.
Tall half-timbered houses lean over narrow streets in an old quarry basin, bridges link their upper floors, and the ground level below lies in damp shadow.

Overview
Yhaunn fills the basin of an old quarry on the Sembian coast; on our map a road leads to Ordulin. With no room to spread outward, its people built three- to five-storey half-timbered houses, and by law every seventh building is of stone to limit fires.
In the Stiltways district, upper floors are joined by bridges and walkways, leaving the streets below a damp slum. The city is livelier and less money-obsessed than the rest of Sembia, and is known for its textiles, wicker, bricks and glass.
