Aldemer

Aldemer is a city that lies on the edge of a thick forest. The city's economy is split between the logging opperations a few miles to the north, those that make a living gathering, trapping and hunting, and the primary reason for the towns size which is the harvesting of the bark of a specific tree that grows only there. The bark itself is a dank, black wood but it functions phenominally well as a fuel when ground into a powder and often mixed with some form of animal fat. The city maintains a solid military force to deal with regular attacks on the loggers and villagers from the wood elf population that lives deep in the forest.
