Editing Luminaux

Luminaux, also known as the Blue City or the City of Harmony, is famous both for music, art and culture, and luxury trade goods.

It was founded in the year 126 of the Sun, by the [[elf|Elvin]] [[Bard]] [[Cornelio BlueCloak]] as a haven for the arts.

Luminaux is now also the home of the Merchant Houses - powerful trading families which lineages that stretch back centuries.

Though technically the entire continent of Crescent is under the dominion of the Church, in practice this city is ruled jointly by the Church and the Guild Council, a loose confederation of craft and trade organizations and the Great Houses.

===Merchant District===
; 1) The Marquette d'Illumination
: this is the central marketplace for Luminaux, and indeed for many leagues in all directions. In addition to the normal fare available at markets, most of the artisan's guilds operate one or more stands here on market day. Luxury items of all sorts are routinely available here, and it also ranks as one of the best people-watching spots in the whole of Crescent. This square is heavily patrolled by Guild Council Guards in uniform and plainclothes.

; 2) [[Barnabus and Nobble, Gnomish Book Printers]]

===Old Luminaux===
; 3) Graveyard de Fortissimos
: This is the final resting spot for the remains of many of Crescent's most famous musicians. As there are few spots left in this crowded cemetery, the remaining plots are bestowed by the Guild of [[Mask and Scroll]] as a sort of 'Lifetime Achievement' award, to ailing bards of great renown or service.

===University Quarter===
; 4) [[The Leaves of Learning]]

; 14) A door to the [[Athenaeum for Spiritual Harmony]].
: This mystical door appeared one day, on the site of the apartment the [[Companions of the Rising Sun]] rented in their early days.  The building itself was burned down under suspicious circumstances many years ago, was eventually rebuilt, and now serves as the entrance to ASH.

===Warehouse District===
; Warehouses.  Many, many warehouses.

===The Island of the Sun===
; 6) The [[Grand Concert Hall]]

; 7) Arcangel's Pride
: This ritzy night spot features the best in amateur, Non-Guild musical entertainment. Particular emphasis is made on vocal performance, although instrumental is also occasionally heard there as well. They feature an open-stage night on Stonesday of each week.

; 8) Guildhall of [[Mask and Scroll]]

; 9) [[Cathedral of Dawn, the|The Cathedral of Dawn]]

===Elvish Quarter===
; 10) [[Felix and Jonathan's School of Swashbuckling and Derring-Do]]

; 11) The Rusty Wing
: This is a small, but cozy, inn and tavern on the Avenue du St. Martin. While they have always done a steady trade, business has picked up recently, largely due to the celebrity of the owner's son, [[Phantos RustyWing]], who was resurrected in a stunning conclusion to the [[Gloria]] mass of 1336, and a recent performance by local celebrities [[Sir Jericho Templar]] and [[Baelwren SummerStorm]].

===Temple District===
; 12) Monastery of the Intercepting Fist
: This is a small chapel/training room/living facility, which serves the needs of the members of the Order of [[the Fist of Reverence]]. It is a very humble building in an otherwise plush section of town, but this suits the [[monk]]s. There is a soup kitchen in the back, where the poor of the city can always find a meal and some comfort.

; 13) [[Darkthorne Academy of Swordsmanship]]
