The second largest city of the Godfall is well known for its tall walls and the huge 'sails' that are raised over the city at night to collect moisture.
This is the main trade hub for the country, caravans leave multiple times a week to go north to Fir Lanear, Otteun, Dolac, and Mifora. Warehouses have been dug out under the entire city to store all the commodities going in and out.
About half a day outside the city is a large settlement of Kenku; Fussuluant. This is the only Kenku community as far as is known.
Locations
Târlaz Place
This square at the center of the city is its pride of place; filled with magnificent statues that survived the Collapse or were in good enough state to be expertly repaired. Discussions on whether or not more contemporary statuary should be displayed here as well, has been raging for centuries.
The Jade Winehouse
Named for a tavern from the days of Baltur, this drinking establishment is actually less than a century old. It is, however, one of the most popular in town. They don't sell any wine but plenty of distilled spirits and have a full floor catering to all kinds of games. During evening hours they have various entertainers on stage, the quality is rather hit or miss, which makes it even more popular.
Tharkathol
This is one of Bruised But Not Broken's largest army camps, mostly used to train up new personnel. The barracks are all located in one large, fortress-like, compound inside the city. Outside the city the organization has a large exercise field where they put the recruits through their paces.
Assuagion Academy
The Companions of Elric buildings take up an entire city quarter. This is because in Banak they are not only a support organisation (with quite impressive storehouses) but they also run the major center of learning in town, teaching both beginner courses and some quite esoteric subjects.
Dubanôn
This magic college has roots going all the way back to Baltur. Unsurprisingly, a portion of its faculty and students are staunch Tipatshimun members. The college is housed in a very large, thick walled building on the Road of the Builders. It probably won't come as a shock to learn that the local lodge of Abjura Dolana is housed in a building across the street; they are keeping more than one wary eye peeled.
